If the 2014-15 Milwaukee Bucks are known for one thing above all else, it would be consistently doing everything at a .500 pace (which means that for each game the Bucks win, they lose one). There’s nothing wrong with that for these Bucks, though. A .500 record is going to get them into the playoffs because they play in the weaker Eastern Conference, and considering last season the Bucks were a .223 team I think most Bucks fans are alright with the team’s record thus far.
The Bucks are currently 23-22, just one game above .500. They haven’t been very far away from that mark at all this season-only three times throughout the season have these Bucks won or lost more than two games in a row (twice they won three in a row, once they lost three in a row), and the last such streak was broken in early December. Even more eerie is the fact that the losing streak came right after one of the winning streaks. The consistency thus far has been uncanny.
The Bucks proved once more that they’re a .500 team when the squad won two of their four games this week. The Bucks’ week began with two home games (against the Jazz and the Pistons) and ended with two road games (against the Spurs and the Heat). The Bucks, again determined to be even in every way, won one home game and one road game.
To find out which games the young Bucks managed to win, read on! We’ll start with the game against the Utah Jazz.
