Every game, they dig themselves a hole by starting slow. Doc Rivers has nothing to lose by going offense-first in the starting five.
The Milwaukee Bucks have slept through tipoff ever since Giannis Antetokounmpo strained his calf against the Pistons. The offense simply can't get anything going. The defense is mediocre. Every night, it seems, the Bucks have to claw back from an early deficit to even have a chance. There is nothing to suggest that this trend is going anywhere.
