Since 2018, the Milwaukee Bucks have always finished among the top three teams in the conference championship. Moreover, in three different seasons, they have won the conference championship. Last season was one of them, and are on the verge of doing it in the 2024–24 season. As of December 3, 2024, they stand second in the Eastern Conference with a record of 24-9. Moreover, they have a record of 8-2 in the last ten games. Despite that, ESPN analyst Kendrick Perkins believes they are not the strongest teams.
ESPN analyst Kendrick Perkins said:
“No one is fearing the deer (Milwaukee Bucks). Matter of fact, it is deer hunting season right now.”
Well, that’s a big statement by Kendrick Perkins. But here is why he stated, ‘No one is fearing the deer.’
“Bucks have no signature win. They have won against lower-ranking teams. They need to level up their defense.”
Yes, Perkins is right. The Milwaukee Bucks have one of the best offensive lineups this season, but their defense has been down significantly. In almost every game, they have conceded close to 120 points, and that is not a good sign. The Bucks’ defense needs to step up, and their playoff games will depend on them.
