Doc Rivers Says Bucks Don’t Bring ‘Necessary Professionalism’ for Road Games
On the surface, the look poised to make another deep run in the playoffs. The Bucks are just three years removed from their championship run, are still led by superstar , and added superstar guard to their lineup for good measure. Sitting in second place in the Eastern Conference with a record of 47–28, it would be easy to think from just looking at the standings board that the Bucks season had been a relatively smooth ride thus far. Unfortunately for Milwaukee, that's not the case.
