Bucks eliminated from playoff contention with blowout loss
MILWAUKEE -- The Milwaukee Bucks were officially eliminated from playoff contention with a 127-95 loss to the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday, ending the second-longest active playoff streak in the league.The Bucks, who have been perennial contenders since drafting Giannis Antetokounmpo in 2013, had made nine straight playoff appearances before this season. The Boston Celtics hold the longest active streak at 11.
Milwaukee was without Antetokounmpo for a sixth straight game because of a left knee hyperextension and bone bruise. He has only appeared in 36 games so far this season, a large reason behind the Bucks' struggles. The Bucks have lost nine of their past 11 games.
The two-time MVP's status going forward has been recently tied to debates over tanking and the player participation policy. In a statement released early this week, the National Basketball Players Association appeared to call out the Bucks for wanting to shut Antetokounmpo down for the season.
Meanwhile, the Spurs won their eighth straight game and their 13th over the past 14 to move within two games of the first-place Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference standings.
Stephon Castle had a triple-double with 22 points, 10 assists and 10 rebounds while MVP candidate Victor Wembanyama added 23 points, 15 rebounds and six assists.

Failure year 2 of 2 2025:
Giannis Antetokounmpo’s goal is to play with his brothers before the season ends, per
@ShamsCharania
“Giannis is trying to ramp up this week from my understanding...he wants to play with his brothers before the regular season ends, he's making very clear behind the scenes that's his goal.”
Dis muthafucka nigga yo!!!! God fuckin dammit!!! Just quit muthafucka. This is some unbelievable shit.
He wanted more money knowing his body has deteriorated and he either should've been traded while his value was still high at the time or retired.Dis muthafucka nigga yo!!!! God fuckin dammit!!! Just quit muthafucka. This is some unbelievable shit.
I've been trying to tell y'all about wanting him gone.So sick of his ass.
He's injury prone with all the talent he has.
This is why josh harris need to sell the team.
They need to clean up the front office firing morey and nick nurse.
It's time for bob myers to resurrect this team.
They need to trade PG too.
I do hope they listen to what I'm saying.Agreed .
This team isn't going nowhere with nick nurse coaching.
This team isn't gonna improve under morey who likes to name chase for past your prime players.
PG is a shell of himself.
Time to build around maxey and VJ.
Nurse is gone after this year. His contract is up. Morey sucks as a GM. Josh Harris is a terrible human being. One of the worst owners in professional sports
That's even sweeter that nurse contract is up.Nurse is gone after this year. His contract is up. Morey sucks as a GM. Josh Harris is a terrible human being. One of the worst owners in professional sports
Morey needs to hit the door right next to nurse.
Josh needs to be forced to sell the team and hopefully it's to someone who cares about building a team into a winner.
I do agree that he's one of thee worst owners of all time. He was a snake oil owner.
What the fuck? We not talkin bout the NBA playoffs in here?
What the fuck? We not talkin bout the NBA playoffs in here?
Yeah we are, Cavs cant wait to take over Detroit
Damn. We really said fuck the NBA Playoffs huh? Very strange. Never happened around here before
Same result going to happen in the Finals. The Knicks, it’s just their year.
Now we just need for josh Harris to sell the team.
I think nurse got 1 more year with the team before he's fired too.
I called that as well.
Good riddance and fuck morey.
