Vote in the Brew Hoop Tuesday Tracker: Put up or shut up time

The regular season few Bucks fans (if any) liked is in the rear-view, and now we’ll finally get answers to our yearlong questions about this team. For me at least, it’s always been about if/how Milwaukee responds to any adversity—whether it’s accumulated or something new that pops up—when the games count more. Unlike some, I don’t think there’s necessarily a switch to be flipped in terms of on-court performance. There have been enough instances, either individual games or stretches of games, where I’ve seen this team perform up to its talent level under both head coaches. I’ve seen the big three click when they all share the floor—which, many seem to forget, they haven’t much at all under Rivers—enough to believe.
