Bucks vs. Clippers Preview: After ugly loss to Lakers, Kidd benches Giannis Antetokounmpo because...desperation?

Surgery for Greivis Vasquez, a sore knee for Greg Monroe, a blowout loss to the toothless Lakers and -- just to put a nice bow on it -- reports today that players were partying on Monday night ahead of the Laker game. The details of the latter seem rather uneventful by NBA standards, but the optics flat-out stink for a team that's gone from Warrior-slaying peak to trough in roughly three days flat.

Either way, the Bucks don't have much time to reflect on their latest disappointments. They play at the Staples Center for the second time in 24 hours tonight, and this time it's against a Clipper team with five times as many wins as the Lakers had entering last night's game.
