Bill Streicher-USA TODAY SportsLet’s see how much difference a week makes. Did the Bucks stop the All-Star break reeling by playing actual, you know, games? How much better does 5-7 look than 3-7, if it even does at all? Embiid or no Embiid, nearly everything Milwaukee did in Philly looked flawless, and say what you will about Minnesota’s prospects for the season, but that’s an elite defense any way you slice it. Yes, it’s good to see the Bucks attack two quality opponents (even if one is more of the play-in variety sans an MVP), but even better is to see the motivation therein.
