The Bucks fired Bud after Giannis was injured & Bud had lost his brother. They have deserved all the failure they've had since that point for making that man the scapegoat. He was never the issue.
Giannis missed the first 3 games of that playoff series, and Bud was dealing with the loss of his brother.. yet the organization and fans made Bud the scapegoat for that series loss.
Pure "The grass is always greener on the other side" mentality topped with a complete lack of empathy.
Ever since they fired Bud, not a single thing has worked out for that organization. Quite frankly it serves them right.

Analysis Summary
This is a sports opinion piece arguing that the Bucks wrongly fired coach Bud during a difficult period (brother's death, Giannis injured) and that the team's subsequent struggles prove they made a mistake. The core factsβBud's departure and the Bucks' poor recent seasonsβare real, but the specific claims about *why* he was fired and *whether* Giannis missed exactly three games lack independent corroboration. The post's main argument is interpretive commentary about organizational decision-making and fan empathy, not verifiable fact.
Claims Analysis (4)
βThe Bucks fired Bud after Giannis was injured & Bud had lost his brotherβ
Bud's departure is confirmed; timing relative to brother's death and Giannis injury cannot be independently verified from available sources.
βGiannis missed the first 3 games of that playoff seriesβ
Web sources reference a March 15 knee injury; specific game-by-game playoff absence details not confirmed in search results.
βEver since they fired Bud, not a single thing has worked out for that organizationβ
Web sources confirm Bucks missed playoffs for first time in decade and had poor 2025-26 season; 'not a single thing' is hyperbolic but directionally accurate.
βThe organization and fans made Bud the scapegoat for that series lossβ
Characterization of blame allocation is interpretive commentary, not verifiable fact. No sources directly address this framing.
