The Milwaukee Bucks have suffered unconditionally after their abrupt change in head coach, replacing Adrian Newey with Doc Rivers while providing no feasible reason for the switch.
Rivers’ reputation for fumbling games was blatantly attacked by the Memphis Grizzlies’ latest addition, GG Jackson, who trolled the Bucks coach for his tactics and strategies that effectively gifted the Grizzlies a win over Giannis Antetokounmpo and Co.
GG Jackson trolls Doc Rivers
The team from Milwaukee failed to grab a win that they could’ve won with ease against the depleted Memphis Grizzlies. In a game that shifted tides throughout, the Bucks failed to capitalize on the absence of key players, thereby making their own job harder and more strenuous than it needed to be.
With less than a minute to go in the game, the Grizzlies were leading the Bucks by nine, but Malik Beasley valiantly knocked back-to-back shots from behind the arc, bringing the teams three points apart with less than half a minute to play. As the Grizzlies held the lead in those vital seconds, Damian Lillard’s last-second hail-Mary attempt missed its mark, giving the Grizzlies a hard-fought win.
While the Bucks fought with true spirit, they wouldn’t have found themselves within the clasp of the Grizzlies, had there been an efficient strategy put in place. The Grizzlies had no answer to Giannis Antetokounmpo’s dynamic dominance but instead of using Antetokounmpo, Rivers chose to utilize other variations in scoring, a move that completely faltered.
As the very young Grizzlies celebrated their win, the Grizzlies’ GG Jackson went on to troll Bucks Head Coach Doc Rivers in his post-game interview. The youngster, who joined the team on a standard contract very recently, attributed the Grizzlies win to the Bucks and the team’s coach, saying, “Great credit to Doc Rivers and the Milwaukee Bucks.”
Jackson lavishes praise on Ziaire Williams
GG Jackson has been a crucial player for the Memphis Grizzlies off the bench. Along with his efficient scoring, the player has also shown effective leadership, encouraging his teammates to work harder and praising them, putting them in the spotlight.
Earlier today, the Grizzlies secured a narrow win against the Bucks, and GG Jackson led his team from the front, effectively coming off the bench and providing a true presence for his team. Against the Bucks, Jackson scored a team-high 27 points, shooting 10 of 17 from the field. The player also made 6 three-pointers, establishing himself as a sharpshooter.
Another player who had a great night was Zaire Williams. Williams too scored 27 points, tying the team-high shooting 9 off 13 from the field, while scoring four threes. Both players combined together to collectively beat the mighty Bucks and were also playing with a depleted roster that is missing several key players.
In his post-game interview, a few moments after he trolled Doc Rivers, GG Jackson showed true maturity and showered praises on his teammate, Zaire Williams for his dominant display of basketball that helped the Grizzlies win over the Bucks. Jackson said, “Shoutout Ziaire. Played his a– off.”
With multiple players out indefinitely, the Memphis Grizzlies will have to rely on GG Jackson’s efficient contributions if they want to taste victory and will hope that their injury issues don’t persist for long periods.
