Milwaukee Bucks
Hiring Mike Budenholzer
For the Milwaukee Bucks, the difference between this season and last has been pretty much night and day. And perhaps the biggest reason why is due to their hiring of Mike Budenholzer over the offseason as the new head coach.
The Bucks are currently 12-4, tied for first in the Eastern Conference and this team his hitting on all cylinders at the moment. Giannis Antetokounmpo continues to get better, and Khris Middleton is paying at a very high level.
This team still has its inconsistencies, but is the only team in the NBA with a top 5 offense and defense. That should say all you need to know about how well the Bucks are playing right now. This team could create serious damage in the Eastern Conference playoffs.
