The Eastern Overlord 2 years ago encountered the first round of curse, and the management needed to take the blame, and these four people urgently needed to be dealt with!

The Bucks fans this season are definitely very disappointed. You should know that as the champions in 2021, they have never been able to enter the finals stage since then, and even the Eastern Conference Finals have become a luxury. Especially in the past three seasons, they have encountered the first round curse and are eliminated early every year. Who would have thought that they would be the overlord of the Eastern Conference two years ago? Especially this season, they clearly achieved a record of 3 wins and 1 loss against the Pacers in the regular season, but were swept by their opponent gentlemen in the playoffs. Giannis Antetokounmpo averaged 33 points, 15.4 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game. Therefore, the team's management must take the blame. After all, their inaction this season is a major factor that makes the team unable to break through. Among them, these four players who performed extremely poorly will inevitably be dealt with this summer!

1. Bobby Portis

Playoff data: 14 points, 8.2 rebounds and 1.4 assists

Looking at Portis' data carefully, it seems reasonable. Average of 14 points, 8.2 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game is one of the few helpers in Antetokounmpo who can share the pressure of scoring and defensiveness this season. The problem is that Portis has caused a lot of trouble over the years. Especially when the season started to advance at full speed, he actually took banned drugs and was arrested by relevant departments of the league and was directly banned for 25 games. Although according to the testimony of Portis's agent team and his own, he had mistakenly taken the drug, since the problem had been found, any explanation became extremely frightening. It was precisely because of Portis' absence that Antetokounmpo was under great pressure, and finally, with the Greek monster turning the tide, he saved a place in the playoffs. Moreover, looking at his performance in the playoffs, except for his 28 points and 12 rebounds in the second game, his performance in the rest of the games was relatively average. Therefore, in general, the Bucks have reached the stage of breaking up with Portis, but this summer, Portis has the player options himself. If there are some majeure factors inside the Bucks, he may choose to leave.

2. Brooke Lopez

Playoff data: 5 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1 block

It is undeniable that in the 2021 championship journey, Daluo has given the team considerable help and is an important contributor to the final victory. At that time, it had to be admitted that Daluo is indeed approaching his retirement stage. Although he is 37 years old this year, he averaged 13 points, 5 rebounds and 1.9 blocks per game in the regular season, he also scored 139 three-pointers, which seemed to be the same as himself back then. But when you look closely at the Bucks' game, you will find that his movements are getting slower and slower, especially on the defensive end, it is difficult to give enough pressure outside the penalty area. In the playoffs, his flaws were infinitely amplified. Facing the pick-and-roll tactics of Thales Halliburton and Miles Turner, he had no limits. As a result, his playing time plummeted to 14.8 minutes, and averaged only 5 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1 block per game. And you should know that in the Bucks' lineup, Daluo has always been Antetokounmpo's inside partner. This time, Daluo's defeat also led to the team's inside collapse, and Antetokounmpo was unable to make up for the situation. This summer, Daluo's contract is about to expire, and considering his age and performance, the Bucks and him will be the best ending.

3. Kyle Kuzma

Playoffs: 5.8 points, 2.2 rebounds and 0.8 assists

Now it seems that the Bucks sent away veteran Chris Middleton and exchanged for Kuzma's trade was the most wrong operation. This 29-year-old former Lakers and Wizards star, who had 22.2 points, 6.6 rebounds and 4.2 assists last season, seems to have forgotten how to play basketball since he was traded to the Bucks. If the average 14.5 points, 5.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game in the 33 games of the regular season are barely passing, then Kuzma's performance in the playoffs is enough to make him overwhelmed by the criticism of fans. You know, the Bucks traded him to Milwaukee in the hope that he would become the third attack point for the team outside Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard. After Lillard encountered a blood clot problem, he should shoulder the responsibility, just like he did with the Lakers back then. But the result was that in the five games, he only scored in double digits in the second game, and the rest of the game performed very eye-catchingly. He even played for 21 minutes in the first game, and except for two fouls, he did not score any data. You should know that Kuzma has two years left in his contract, and the Bucks must seize the opportunity to send him away, otherwise it will only occupy the team's salary space.

4.Torion Prince

Playoff data: 1.2 points, 1 rebound and 1.6 assists

As the Bucks' starting small forward this season, Prince's performance in the regular season is still satisfactory, averaging 8.2 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1 steal, and scored 147 three-pointers with a 43.9% three-point shooting percentage. It can be said that he is the team's most relied on 3D player. Combined with his minimum salary of only $2.99 ​​million, it can be said that Prince has wiped out the shadow of last season's Lakers, and a big contract seems to be in front of him. However, his playoff performance completely shattered his dream and explained why he was abandoned by the Lakers. In the total of 5 games, he only scored 6 points, and all of these 6 points contributed in the second game, which means that he was zero in the rest of the game. Of course, this is also related to his abandonment by Doug Rivers in the last three games, but in terms of his performance of not being able to make progress in the first two games and being unable to defend against it, it is completely reasonable to be abandoned. Therefore, the Bucks can no longer renew their contract with Prince, otherwise they will likely repeat the mistakes of this season.
