When the NBA Season started in late October, the Milwaukee Bucks were estimated to not even make the playoffs by most analysts. When the NBA Playoffs began, Milwaukee was expected to fall to the Chicago Bulls in five or six games.
Well, the series is now heading to a crucial Game 6 in Milwaukee in which a Bucks win would force a Game 7 in Chicago. That’s right; the worst team in the NBA last season is two games away from making the second round of the playoffs.
A lot of people seem to think that although the Bucks have made it this far they will not be able to topple Chicago over the next two games to make it to round two. I disagree.
I see multiple reasons why Milwaukee has a fair chance of being the first team in history to come back from being down three games in a series to win it. Let’s start off with my first reason the Bucks can come back and win this series, an impact player for the Bucks, Michael Carter-Williams.
