    The Milwaukee Bucks suffered a lopsided defeat against the New York Knicks on Friday night, with the final score being 116-94.

    Milwaukee remained struggling to start its first season under head coach Doc Rivers, falling 2-7 following a loss to New York.

    The Knicks took an early 17-6 lead and never looked back, leading 66-47 at halftime. New York extended its lead in the second half and secured the victory.

    Giannis Antetokounmpo had 24 points, 12 rebounds and shot 11-21 from the field. Damian Lillard struggled with his shooting, hitting just six of his 15 attempts.

    Other than Lillard and Antetokounmpo, no player on Milwaukee’s roster scored more than 10 points.

    Fans questioned Rivers’ job security following the defeat.

    It’s crazy that Doc Rivers continues to let this continue….

    A week ago I said Doc Rivers might not be in attendance for Christmas as Bucks HC. Now he may not actually make it to Thanksgiving.

    Doc Rivers has been a disaster with the Bucks. When will NBA teams realize that this guy is not a good coach?

    Stefan Bondy @SbondyNBA

    I’m still baffled by Doc Rivers’ decision to defend Karl Anthony Towns against Brook Lopez, the prototypical center of off-air coverage. I won’t let this go.

    That’s the problem Doctor Rivers has to go

    Serious question how? @DocRivers Do you still have a job on this staff?

    Karl-Anthony Towns recorded his seventh consecutive double-double for the Knicks. He scored 27 points in the first half alone, scoring 32 points as well as grabbing 11 rebounds. Towns shot 12-20 from the field and made four three-pointers.

    Rivers has a 19-26 record with Milwaukee since being hired midway through the 2023-24 season.
