The Harsh Truth About The Milwaukee Bucks
Спорт
The Milwaukee Bucks are one of the most confusing teams in the NBA. They are the 2nd seed in the East but have lost a lot of games to bad teams. So what the heck is going on? Is this team actually for real? And if not, why is that?

yeah Bucks not gonna win this year, don't think they're even gonna make it past 2nd round. Talent alone isn't gonna be enough this time.

I dont see why Boston is such a favorite out the east. If the Bucks can get to the conf finals against the celtics and put pressure on them late I dont see how Boston is that much better if at all in crunch time. Even in the games that boston has won against the bucks they have broken down late and have shown why they are completely unreliable late in the 4th quarter. At the odds of the two team I much prefer the bucks to come out the east.

If the Bucks had a real coach like Pat Riley, Phil Jackson, or Eric Spoelstra they wouldn't be in the position they're in. They would also have at least 3 maybe 4 rings with Giannis, Middleton, and Lopez.
A really underrated aspect to this is all the minutes with Lopez on the floor. Due to his development, all he does all game is stand at the hash to wait on pick and pops or catch and shoots. This means if an agile big is on Brook, he can shade all the way over to whichever drive is on his side of the court, essentially being able to double on Dame dribble pull-ups and slow Giannis on the roll.

Giannis is a better free throw and all around shooter than either of them and the best perimeter defender of the 3. But all the sudden because he plays beside guys who flash all their moves before shooting 46% from the field only to average less points, hes not skilled enough.

Giannis literally took over in the 4th quarter and overtime of almost every game on that run except the Hawks series when he was injured and the one or two games Khris closed out in-between.

the first reason is that his game hasn't evolved since 2021, so the league and defenses basically adapted to his style, especially in playoffs. the second reason is that the league and the playstyle is evolving so quickly that building a team around a player like Giannis isn't really a thing anymore. surrounding a non shooting player with 3-4 shooters isn't a thing anymore. the third reason is that the competition is VERY VERY strong and they are so many good teams now, more than in 2021. the fourth reason is that the Bucks is a bad coached team, in my opinion.
