NBA fans react to Damian Lillard's performance in the Bucks-Grizzlies game

The Milwaukee Bucks played the Memphis Grizzlies in Tennessee on Thursday night.

The Bucks lost 122-99 in their first five games of the new season, leaving them 1-4.

Damian Lillard had a tough night, finishing the game with four points, two rebounds, six assists and a steal while shooting 1/12 from the field and 0/6 from three-point range in 33 minutes of play.

Many NBA fans reacted to his performance.

@Ar15Mvp: “Queens is not a good player when there are expectations”

@BIGMEM12: “What happens when you’re guarded by Scotty Pippen Jr.?”

@WadexFlash: “It’s time for Dame to leave the Bucks and come to Miami this season.”

@30problemz: “Maybe it’s time to retire”

@CoryJennerjohn: “When the Bucks chose Damian Lillard over Jrue Holiday, the future was lost. Holiday was perfect because he can score and defend. Lillard prefers not to play defense – and sometimes his score doesn’t show.”

@U__G__O_: “I didn't even know the Bucks were 1-4, Middleton has been broken for ages now, but still… the whole Lillard trade was disappointing.”

About Bleacher Report: “Bucks have lost 4 games in a row

Tonight:
Giannis: 37 PTS, 17-22 FG, 11 REB
Queen: 4 PTS, 1-12 FG

You’re 1-4 at the start of the season…Milwaukee is in trouble?”

The Bucks have one of the most talented rosters in the NBA, but are struggling to start the 2024-25 season.

After Memphis, Donovan Mitchell and the Clevleand Cavaliers continue in Milwaukee on Saturday evening.
