The Milwaukee Bucks' biggest problem can't be traded away

The Bucks can make all the trades they want to acquire every available player on the market, and it won't change the fundamental problem destroying this season: Doc Rivers is still the coach.

Anyone paying attention knows this to be true, especially after the past few losses. Watch how Rivers manages games, and you'll see the same patterns that have destroyed his last three playoff runs.

There are the usual stubborn rotations despite evidence that they don't work. Zero creativity in crunch time. Defensive breakdowns that never get addressed. Those problems don't disappear because Milwaukee added a new player, no matter who that piece is.
