Milwaukee Bucks coach Doc Rivers says the team isn’t putting any extra pressure on itself as it tries to bounce back from the franchise’s slowest start in three decades.
“The worry is outside the building, I guarantee you that,” Rivers said Wednesday. “There’s none inside the building.”Giannis Antetokounmpo
“That doesn’t mean we are going to a five-game winning streak or 10-game winning streak, but I know that we are playing better and we trust one another better,” Antetokounmpo said Saturday after a 114-113 home loss to Cleveland. “The ball is moving. There’s a lot of good things that we can do. That’s all we can control.”
Former coach Mike Budenholzer was fired after the Bucks posted the NBA’s best regular-season record in 2022-23 but lost to Miami in the first round of the playoffs. Budenholzer was replaced by Adrian Griffin, who got fired midway through last season despite owning a 30-13 record. The Bucks have gone 18-25 since Rivers’ arrival, not including their 4-2 first-round playoff loss to Indiana last season.
“This is a positive group,” Rivers said. “We believe we’re a really good basketball team that has played poorly at times. The last two games you could say we played well and lost the games.”Bobby PortisThe cause for concern is recent history showing how tough it is to bounce back from this kind of start. This marks the longest the Bucks have taken to earn their second win of a season since 1993-94, when they won their season opener and then dropped 10 straight. That team finished 20-62.
