With no Giannis Antetokounmpo in the lineup, the Milwaukee Bucks never made it pretty, but took care of business with a 108-98 win against the Chicago Bulls, who were also playing without Zach LaVine.
What We Learned
The Bulls-Bucks rivalry is essentially on pause. Obviously it’s alway sweet to take down this cross-state, divisional rival, but whatever fire was placed in this rivalry following that memorable Playoff series back in 2015 has long been extinguished by the overwhelming win streak that the Bucks currently own against them. They’ve now won 12 straight against Chicago, with little end in sight.
