Milwaukee Bucks Game Preview: March 18 at Golden State Warriors
By Ti Windisch
The Milwaukee Bucks have a tough test awaiting them as the Golden State Warriors are next up on the schedule.
The Milwaukee Bucks just swept the Los Angeles teams in L.A. for the first time since the 80s. That’s a nice accomplishment for Milwaukee. Can the Bucks follow it up with a huge win over the reigning regular season champs on Saturday night?
The Golden State Warriors may not be reigning NBA champions, but it’s tough to say the 73-win Dubs didn’t win the regular season last year. The Warriors obviously weren’t happy with their loss in the NBA Finals though, as evidenced by Golden State pursuing and adding Kevin Durant in free agency.

The Bucks almost beat the full-strength Warriors back in November. Neither team is at full strength anymore, as Jabari Parker and Kevin Durant will both miss the game on Saturday night between these two teams.
The Warriors, after uncharacteristically dropping three games in a row, have now won two straight. Neither of the teams they beat is as good as Milwaukee is though, and even though the Warriors are a real super team they’ve been skidding without Durant lately.
To see how either team could pull out a win on Saturday night, we’ll look at major keys for both of them. After that it’s time to check out a Warriors to watch, followed by some score predictions on the game.
