The Milwaukee Bucks faithful were left scratching their heads after the 2022-2023 season. Coach Bud, the man who led them to the promised land of an NBA championship in 2021, was suddenly out.

A Season of Discontent: When the Bucks Hit a Wall (and Didn't Quite Rise Above It)
The cracks started to show in the 2021-2022 season. The Bucks, despite boasting the league's best record, fell short in the playoffs, losing in the second round. Whispers of "championship hangover" and "stale coaching schemes" began to circulate. Then, the unthinkable happened. The 2022-2023 season saw a first-round playoff exit, this time to the underdog Miami Heat. That was the final straw. The Bucks organization decided it was time to make a change, and Coach Bud, though undeniably a championship coach, was shown the door.
Where'd He Go? From Cheese Curds to Suns and Sand
Fear not, Bucks fans! Coach Bud isn't coaching high school ball somewhere (although, with his defensive schemes, maybe he should be). He landed on his feet as the new head coach of the Phoenix Suns! So, instead of cheese curds, he'll be basking in the Arizona sun, hoping to turn the Suns into contenders.
Tip: Review key points when done.
But wait, is this a case of bad blood between Bud and the Bucks? Not necessarily. The official word is that both parties felt a change was needed. Maybe Giannis just wanted someone new to yell at him to "run the damn floor!"
