Holiday wish list for every NBA team
Milwaukee Bucks
The season is over! Crown the Milwaukee Bucks now!
Milwaukee is the only team to defeat the mighty Golden State Warriors thus far. How did they solve the best team in the Association you say? The athleticism of the Bucks gave them a fighting chance. It was their versatility which made them look like a bad matchup for the champs. How did they follow-up their victory over the Warriors? By losing to the lowly Los Angeles Lakers just a few days later.
Now on to what is on their wish list.
Making the playoffs last season was unexpected, especially without arguably their best player Jabari Parker. The Bucks not only found a way to get to the postseason, but win two games in a series against their rivals 90 miles south in the Chicago Bulls. They played with house money and impressed thoroughly. Repeating that performance is what they want to do. Milwaukee’s offseason acquisition of Greg Monroe proved that they were serious about getting back to the playoffs.
The scary part about the Bucks is that they are still playing with house money. Wait until the light bulb above the head of Giannis “Greek Freak” Antetokounmpo turns on and he believes that he is one of the league’s next great players.
In the meantime, the Bucks need shooting. Stretching the floor would allow the “Greek Freak” to wreak havoc alongside the baseline. A pure shooter in the vein of Chandler Parsons would make a world of difference for Milwaukee.
