The Milwaukee Bucks have the more experienced head coach

It might sound a bit silly to say this, especially after what transpired in the Bucks’ series against the Heat last season, but I think I like Mike Budenholzer to make the necessary moves against the Nets more than I like Steve Nash to.

Maybe I’m totally wrong here, and I’ll eat my words if so. But Budenholzer held his own against Erik Spoelstra this season and has some versatility on the roster that if a move needed to be made, I believe he won’t hesitate to do it.

He learned from last season and I don’t believe he’s going to be opening himself to make the same mistakes twice in a row on the big stage.

Heading into this series with the Nets, the Bucks have plenty going for them in their favor. The big question will revolve around whether their key players will be able to step up and match the star power for the Nets. It won’t be an easy task, but it’s certainly something that is achievable.
