Milwaukee Bucks

The Record Projection: 45-37 of fromal The Bet: lean although Prevent under
The Milwaukee Bucks would want to win six more matches in 2017-18 than they did during the 2016-17 campaign, to give more bettors a payout. That is not an unreasonable jump for such a young and talented group, but it is still somewhat unrealistic–even at the weakened Eastern Conference.
Upside pervades this roster. Just imagine how good the core of Malcolm Brogdon, Khris Middleton, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jabari Parker and Thon Maker could turn into. Now throw D.J. Wilson, Tony Snell and then Greg Monroe into the equation.
But questions persist.
Parker may not return to the lineup until after the All-Star fracture since he rehabs the second torn ACL of his basketball career, and that places an excessive quantity of pressure on Antetokounmpo or one of the unproven youngsters to shoulder moments at power forward.
Maker is by no means a lock to be valuable in 2017-18, and regression could hit Brogdon after his Rookie of the Year campaign.
The Bucks will be fun. They ought to be considered a playoff lock. However, their development might not be as quick as some anticipate unless all of the key pieces stay healthy and do not induce the coaching team to rely to a less exciting bench.
