Milwaukee Bucks fans are frustrated with how their season are going to the point that they take it on the players by booing them. This is happening while their superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo gets dragged into relentless trade rumors.
What ails the Bucks, really? Associate coach and two-time champion Rajon Rondo kept the problem simple and it’s what he thought Antetokounmpo is most frustrated with.
“For me, I think we just haven’t bought into everybody being stars in their role consistently enough,” Rondo said during an appearance in Kevin Garnett’s podcast.
“I think that’s the frustrating part. Obviously, the big fella missed a lot of games, and it’s a big thing now how we’re trying to be good without Giannis on the court. If we can do it as a team versus one person or two people here and there every possession, because every possession is valuable. We may go on stretches where it’s two or three possessions where we don’t take care of the ball or we’re not able to get a stop, and that’s where the gap continues to grow.”
Bucks have lost three straight games, the last two was by double digits. They also lost to Denver Nuggets’ Team B.
Giannis Antetokounmpo’s faith on teammates
The Greek Freak at the start of the season expressed faith on his teammates. He said they can be dangerous and can beat any team.
That’s what Rondo feels, too. However, the effort should be there and they should be able to perform on a daily basis.
“I just think we do have some great pieces,” the Celtics legend said.
“We do have some really good pieces. It’s just about everybody being consistent. That’s what separates the greats.”
Bucks are a tall mountain to climb right now. They are 17-24 and are outside the play-in. They are 1.5 games behind no. 10 Atlanta Hawks.
