If an 82 game season can ever come down to a single week, this is it for the Milwaukee Bucks. The NBA schedule makers opted to not make a total hash of things and wisely set up a series of clashes between the Eastern Conference’s top three teams to help finalize the playoff bracket. For the Bucks, having the Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers come to town offers the opportunity to finalize their hold on the East’s top seed and a doable path back to the Eastern Conference Finals.
To get there will require continued full-strength efforts from Milwaukee.
