3 Reasons Milwaukee Bucks will lose in the first round of NBA Playoffs again

The Milwaukee Bucks are playing some of their worst basketball of the season

The Milwaukee Bucks have struggled with consistency all season long. This is a team that has rarely looked comfortable and dominant this year. However, of late, you can make the argument that the Bucks have reached an all-time low point. Since March 6, the Bucks are 6-10. Over that span, they have the 16th-ranked offensive rating and a bottom-10 defensive rating. As you would expect, the Bucks also have a negative net rating.

Specifically, the Bucks have been especially bad in the last couple of weeks. Milwaukee has lost four games in a row and six of their last seven. They've dropped games at a furious pace and are in real danger of falling out of the second seed of the Eastern Conference heading into the NBA Playoffs.

This recent skid couldn't be coming at a worse time for the Bucks. At a time when contenders want to be playing at their best, the Bucks are simply not. Maybe they're able to flip a switch when the NBA Playoffs begin, but with the way they've played in the regular season, that seems extremely unlikely.
