Things are getting ugly in Milwaukee, and head coach Taylor Jenkins knows it. The Milwaukee Bucks suffered their seventh consecutive defeat on Tuesday night, getting completely outclassed in a 117-85 loss to the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden. The 32-point blowout dropped Milwaukee to a dismal 1-10 record, leaving Jenkins searching for quick answers as the season threatens to spiral early.

The lopsided game exposed Milwaukee’s biggest structural flaws, especially on the glass. New York completely dominated the painted area, outrebounding the Bucks 59-32. Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns owned the interior with 21 points and 16 rebounds, while backup big man Andre Drummond pulled down 14 rebounds in just 16 minutes off the bench. Point guard Jalen Brunson led New York with 23 points, while swingman OG Anunoby chipped in 19 points behind five 3-pointers.
