The NBA regular season continued, with the Bucks, the Big Three, losing to the Pistons, ending a six-game winning streak while they were unable to surpass the Nets.
In this game, the Bucks lost to the Pistons by 9 points, which is unbelievable. You know, the Bucks' alphabet brother, Middleton and Holliday have all participated in the game, and the Pistons core Grant has been in the game due to injury, and they are currently only in the second-to-last east with 7-28 this season, which is a real weak team.
But even against such an opponent, the Bucks still lost. After losing this game, they also had no chance to surpass the Nets.
On the same day, the Nets lost to the Grizzlies, Durant and Harden did not feel good with both hands, and if the Bucks won the Pistons, they would surpass the Nets to become second in the East and will continue to narrow the gap with the first Bulls in the East, but their performance was a big surprise.
This season, the Bucks' performance has been volatile. In the opener, they beat the Nets, but then lost miserably to the Heat. Due to frequent injuries or covid-19 infections among key players, the Bucks' performance has not been stable enough. They have beaten the Lakers led by Davis and Westbrook (James is absent from the game) and lost to the Raptors, Pelicans, Eagles and other teams with poor records.
Due to the controversy surrounding last season's title triumph, especially Alphabet Brother's stepping stone to Irving, the Bucks should have more motivation to prove themselves this season. But now, they actually lost to a weak team like the Pistons, which makes people wonder if they are really ready to defend their titles.
It is worth mentioning that NBA star Horry recently said that the Bucks cannot defend their title, and they were able to win the Nets last year because Durant's feet were too big (last season's semi-finals to grab seven games, Durant hit the three-point shot in the last minute of the fourth quarter when stepping on the line, the game entered overtime, the Bucks finally won).
