The Bucks are too good to look this bad

The Milwaukee Bucks are too good, too deep and too experienced to look this lost and disjointed.

Unless they’re not that good and the Brooklyn Nets have just found themselves at the right time and these blowouts should be expected, but there’s too much evidence to the contrary about the Bucks’ competence.

Now, their confidence looks to be another matter — being thrashed with ease should’ve shaken something in them, considering the game was essentially over in the first 10 minutes or so.

It wasn’t just a wire-to-wire win for the Nets, a spread that rose to as much as 49 before they called off the dogs, and it didn’t just stir up memories of the last two seasons.
