Battered Bucks trail Pacers 3-1 as injuries seem insurmountable

The Milwaukee Bucks have a big offseason coming up, and it seems Jon Horst will indeed be the one running the ship for it as according to multiple journalists the Bucks denied the Detroit Pistons the opportunity to interview Horst for their President of Basketball Operations job. Ti Windisch and Rohan Katti started off a packed Gyro Step podcast by digesting that news and sharing what it likely means for Horst and the Bucks moving forward, before covering other news including the NBA Draft Lottery happening on Sunday, Doc Rivers letting three assistant coaches go, and Mike Budenholzer and Charles Lee getting hired as head coaches. After ALL of that, Ti and Rohan go through the whole Bucks roster to decide if each player should stay or go, from Giannis Antetokounmpo, Damian Lillard, and Khris Middleton to TyTy Washington Jr., Jaylin Galloway, and Ryan Rollins. Debates on Brook Lopez, Bobby Portis, and somehow Danilo Gallinari emerged during the conversation.

The Milwaukee Bucks short playoff run is over and the offseason has arrived, which brings a whole new set of talking points. On the first offseason edition of the Gyro Step, Ti Windisch and Rohan Katti discuss their final reflections on Milwaukee's first round loss to the Indiana Pacers before moving on to the big Bucks debate of the day: should Brook Lopez be a core player going forward? Or does Milwaukee just need to get younger and faster too badly to keep him around? Ti and Rohan also cover some news and notes including a report on Pat Bev's future and good quotes from exit interviews regarding Giannis Antetokounmpo, Damian Lillard, and Doc Rivers.

The Milwaukee Bucks ran out of fight in Indiana and collapsed late, falling 120-98 to the Pacers despite Damian Lillard toughing out a return to action. Ti Windisch and Jordan Treske recap some questionable rotation decisions from Doc Rivers, the Bucks vets returning to the bad form they showcased prior to Game 5, Khris Middleton running out of gas, and the Bucks likely always doomed run given the lack of Giannis Antetokounmpo.

The Milwaukee Bucks bounced back in a BIG way from two losses in Indiana. Doc Rivers and his staff instituted a variety of new defensive wrinkles that stalled the Pacers and the Bucks maligned veterans stepped it up on both ends as Milwaukee cruised to a 115-92 victory in Fiserv Forum and kept their playoff hopes alive for another two days at least. Ti Windisch, Jordan Treske, and Rohan Katti convene after the game to discuss Khris Middleton leading the way, redemption for Bobby Portis and Malik Beasley, and Pat Bev applying BELT 2 A$$.

The Milwaukee Bucks dropped their third straight game of the first round in Indiana on Sunday evening as the Pacers took a commanding 3-1 lead via a 126-113 win over a shorthanded Bucks squad. Milwaukee was without both Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard (plus Chris Livingston) and also dealt with Khris Middleton and Patrick Beverley suffering injuries mid-game that hampered them down the stretch. Oh, and Bobby Portis got ejected in the first quarter! So yeah. Ti Windisch and Rohan Katti caught up Monday morning to try and find any positives in the Bucks current situation, including Middleton’s intense level of grit, Andre Jackson Jr proving he belongs in the Bucks rotation now and next season, and … maybe Dame and/or Giannis will come back and save Milwaukee? They also discussed their disappointment with most of the vets on Milwaukee's roster, and commended Doc Rivers for trying to patch this thing together.

The Milwaukee Bucks and Indiana Pacers are knotted up at 1-1 through two games of their first round series, and Gyro Step host Ti Windisch was joined by Locked on Pacers host Tony East to check in on the series as it shifts to Indiana. Ti and Tony discussed how Damian Lillard and Pascal Siakam have been impossible to stop for both teams, adjustments the teams have already made and what could come next in the chess match between Doc Rivers and Rick Carlisle, the importance of the Bucks finding ways to keep up with Indiana’s pace, whether Milwaukee needs to force Tyrese Haliburton to score more if his supporting cast can keep hitting shots, and more.

The Milwaukee Bucks got another great game from Damian Lillard but the rest of the Bucks couldn't step up when the Indiana Pacers sent help, and the Pacers' improved shooting led to a dispiriting 125-108 Game 2 loss. Ti Windisch, Jordan Treske, and Numac convened after the game to discuss how the Bucks can bounce back before Games 3 and 4 in Indiana.

The Milwaukee Bucks’ first-round series was never going to feel particularly easy with the way the Bucks stumbled to the finish line of the 2023-24 NBA season, and losing Giannis Antetokounmpo for at least part of the series only intensified the challenge looming in the spunky Indiana Pacers for Damian Lillard, Khris Middleton, and the remaining Bucks. To prepare for the series, Ti Windisch of the Gyro Step sat down with Alex Golden of the Setting the Pace podcast to go over the starters matching up on both ends, as well as key bench players for both sides, and general factors that feel important to the series (especially pace).
