Cornered during these NBA Finals, Milwaukee already has no room for error. More than the defeats, it is the overall level of play of the group that worries observers. An analyst did not mince his words concerning them, explaining that the players were completely brainless.
Despite the rapid return to business of Giannis Antetokounmpo, who was to remain on the sidelines for a while following his knee injury, the Bucks are clearly struggling in these Finals. Led 2-0, the men of Wisconsin are back to the wall, and in the obligation to win the next two meetings, at home. Did you say pressure?
Most disturbing is that Milwaukee’s game seems totally messed up by Phoenix’s, which takes place without too much effort. Enough to attract criticism from a lot of people, including Kendrick Perkins. The analystESPN did not hesitate to take out the sulphate when approaching their case, after Game 2:
The Milwaukee Bucks are the Dumbest Team in Finals History!!! The way that they play the game of basketball is beyond disturbing to the viewers eyes. Carry the hell on… pic.twitter.com/nyPaQ8aE41

Let’s not overcomplicate and make it simple, okay? The Milwaukee Bucks are the dumbest team in Finals history! !! It’s the NBA Finals. And yet, the Milwaukee Bucks play the most bizarre basketball in playoff history. It’s really disturbing to see.
As usual, Perk’s words are particularly harsh, and will not be unanimous. Nevertheless, the latter supports them this time with the help of images from the match, proof that what he says is far from unfounded. And there, it is not just the players who are called into question …
After all, it is the head coach and his staff who set up the systems, and who dictate the procedure for the squad. We can therefore see this statement as a criticism addressed directly to Mike Budenholzer. The latter could also quite leave the franchise this summer, if Milwaukee does not win the title. In the eyes of many, qualifying for the Finals had only given the tactician a respite …
Kendrick Perkins hasn’t been kind to the Bucks, but he did raise several very important points. The latter will therefore have to quickly get back in the saddle, if they do not want to lose all hope of finishing champion.
