I Milwaukee Bucks they were really unlucky in these Playoff NBA 2024. The team coached by coach Doc Rivers had to say goodbye to any title ambition after being eliminated by the Indiana Pacers 4-2 in the first round. The truth is that thecalf injury suffered by Giannis Antetokounmpo towards the end of the regular season he undermined Milwaukee’s path, forced to rely totally on Damian Lillard and Khris Middleton, both of whom also had physical ailments. The former Portland point guard even had to miss Game 5 due to injury, before trying to drag his team into Game 6, which they lost 102-98 despite scoring 28 points. In the closing press conference of the season, Lillard spoke in this way about what happened in the last fifteen days:
“I think I wouldn’t have felt right all summer if I hadn’t tried to do everything to help the team. Antetokounmpo? It’s frustrating not to be able to have him on the pitch at this point in the season, because we know that with him on the floor we’re a completely different team.”
Then the words of also arrived Doc Rivers who seems to have already projected himself to the next training camp in September:
“It’s strange, because usually when you finish a season you feel the need to take a break, while I already can’t wait to go to training camp and try to put together what we need to get back on our feet. “
