I’m not really a believer in fate, destiny, or the preordination of the universe. However, if I was a little more open-minded, this Bucks team might mess around and make me a believer.
The truth of the matter is, they’ve survived extremely long odds; or it feels like they have, at least. Their playoffs began with a chance to exact revenge against a Miami Heat team that made Milwaukee a laughingstock for an entire season, an opportunity they took full advantage of. Then they had to take on the Kevin Durant juggernaut, aided in part by an early injury to James Harden and a mid-series injury to Kyrie Irving.
