Milwaukee Bucks have hit rock bottom. It is no excuse that today I have not been able to count on Giannis Antetokounmpo. Not at all. The ridicule of the team Doc Rivers begins to cause stupor in everyone around him.
Milwaukee lost at home today against a team that had accumulated 16 consecutive losses, that had posted a 1-14 record in March and that had not won a game since March 3, that is, for more than a month.
But it rains in the wet: Bucks have had 3 consecutive losses against the Wizards, Grizzlies and Raptors, 3 teams that are well below the 50% win rate this season! Wizards have 15 wins, Grizzlies 27 and Raptors 24. They are 3 teams stripped of competitive level that long ago forgot the playoff horizon.
To make matters worse, Milwaukee has only won one game in its last 6 games. And since Doc Rivers came to the bench at the end of January, the balance is 15-16, a mark to greatly miss his predecessor in office.
I returned to Damian Lillard after being off the slopes for a week, but not for that reason. The final 111-117 revives all the ghosts of the Wisconsin team and puts another pebble in Rivers’ shoe.
Toronto, which won 2-1 in its private series with Milwaukee!, had Gary Trent Jr. with 31 points and 7 triples and the good contribution of the former Knicks RJ Barrett (26 points and 7 rebounds) and Immanuel Quickley (25 points, 11 rebounds, 9 assists and 14 of 15 free throws).
Milwaukee, which was really bad from the perimeter, had – absent Anteto – Damian Lillard as a great scorer with 36 points and 6 assists, although he lost 7 balls. Chris Middleton He made 21 points and 6 baskets, Bobby Portis he scored 19 points and 10 rebounds and Brook Lopez added 15 points.
After losing, the Bucks remain second, but the pursuers gather behind their position. A reaction feels obligatory.
