Bucks forward Bobby Portis criticized coach Adrian Griffin’s handling of the team’s late-game offense in the locker room after Milwaukee’s loss to the Pacers in the semifinals of the NBA in-season tournament on Thursday, Chris Haynes of Bleacher Report and TNT reports.
Griffin, a first-time head coach, began his remarks to his team after the game by emphasizing the importance of rebounding. That’s when Portis “quickly interjected and stressed how essential it is for Griffin to structure the offense down the stretch of games,” Haynes reports.
“Griffin welcomed the criticism and acknowledged he could do a better job being more aggressive with his play-calling,” Haynes added.
