Milwaukee Bucks Tweet of the Week:

Despite an overall very strong showing by the Bucks this week, they did finish with a rather disappointing 2-2 record. Although winning games against the defending champions is far from easy, the team had their chances to snag one of those games, especially the first battle. On the other hand, the team was outstanding in their games against the Chicago Bulls.

The Bulls are definitely a border battle and a division rival, and the Bucks absolutely dismantled them in back-to-back games. This was a very good week for both Giannis Antetokounmpo and Jabari Parker, but it is hard to argue with Malcolm Brogdon as the man who found his way onto a lot of highlights.

The “President” took his savvy, steady play and took it to a whole new level with some posterizing dunks that led to a massive social media reaction.

Although it seems like Joel Embiid has a strong lead in terms of the Rookie of the Year voting, but maybe these highlight plays by Humble Moses will open up the league’s eyes towards the outstanding play of the former Virginia Cavalier.

2-2 is not something that the Bucks should be enthused about, but it is not a week that should be looked down upon either. And to sum up the play of each player, let’s enter another rendition of the Player Rankings!
