It’s hard to believe that half of the NBA season is now in the rearview mirror. The Bucks capped off the first half with one of the worst performances in franchise history, getting absolutely plastered off the floor by a Cavaliers team that was missing 40% of its starting lineup, albeit without Giannis Antetokounmpo. The Bucks were walloped so badly that the Cavaliers could have missed every single three-pointer they attempted, and the Bucks still would have lost by four.
Now, one game isn’t the end of the world and just last week the Bucks beat the snot out of Boston (albeit on a SEGABABA, but still, the games don’t count for nothing) behind a cavalcade of threes, and Boston threw up the white flag at halftime.
