On a three-game winning streak and likely welcoming their second All-Star back to the court this evening, the Bucks seem to have found their swagger again. The schedule is soft for another few games before a tougher road stretch beckons, but they have a nice nest egg after winning 75% of their first twenty contests. Initial quarterly returns are robust, futures bode well with the roster nearing its preseason actualization, and a certain Greek’s MVP case is strengthening. I generally have an optimistic view of this organization and its title chances this season, but I doubt even the most rosy-eyed Bucks observers saw a 15-5 record without Khris Middleton.
