The Milwaukee Bucks are 8-2, and looking like a team very much on the rise. The team ranks in the top-5 in Offensive Rating, Defensive Rating, Pace, three-point attempts, three-point makes, effective FG percentage (on both sides of the ball), and rebounding. Head coach Mike Budenholzer wasn’t the most exciting choice at the time, but he has ushered in a new age of Milwaukee basketball, and seems to have fully embraced the evolution of the NBA.
At the same time, the Bucks have already had weaknesses exposed over these first ten games.
