Milwaukee Bucks Game Preview: March 31 vs Detroit Pistons
By Ti Windisch
The Milwaukee Bucks have just seven games left this season. The next one up is against the Detroit Pistons at home.
The Milwaukee Bucks are having a fantastic end to their season right now. Were it not for an ugly, flukey loss to the Chicago Bulls on Sunday, the Bucks would be on a six-game winning streak heading into their last seven contests.
Even with that loss, the Bucks are holding onto the sixth seed in the Eastern Conference and they just dispatched the top dog in the East. Milwaukee battled with the Boston Celtics for a full 48 minutes on Wednesday, and at times it seemed as though the Celtics had turned the tide and would win.

The Bucks weren’t having it. Milwaukee kept on battling back, and eventually pulled out a three-point victory that served both as valuable to the standings and as a clear statement: these Milwaukee Bucks aren’t afraid of anybody.
The Detroit Pistons haven’t been making many statements via victories lately, probably because they haven’t managed to rack up many victories lately. Detroit is 1-5 in the team’s last six games, with the lone win coming by one point over the Brooklyn Nets. It’s not great there.
To see how either the stumbling, bumbling Pistons or the surging Bucks could achieve victory on Friday night, we’ll first go through a major key for both teams, followed by a Piston to watch and some predictions on the game’s final score.
