In our latest staff roundtable, we reflect on the Milwaukee Bucks’ preseason campaign, highlight players to watch out for and lock in some bold predictions for the year ahead.

Ladies and gentlemen, regular season Milwaukee Bucks basketball is back!

That’s right, after waiting almost six months for a truly meaningful Bucks game, the team will officially tip-off their 2017-18 season on Wednesday night against the Celtics in Boston (6.30 PM Central).

But before Giannis Antetokounmpo starts euro-stepping around defenders, Khris Middleton catches fire from behind the arc and Greg Monroe cries “AND-ONE!” under the rim, the crew here at Behind The Buck Pass got together to share their thoughts (and bold predictions) on where the Bucks are heading over the next 82 games (and hopefully beyond).

This time I was lucky enough to be joined by co-site experts Adam McGee and Jordan Treske, as well as contributors Mike Bossetti, Rohan Katti, Joe Sliwinski and Ben Sewell.

Specifically, we dived into a quick review of Milwaukee’s short-lived preseason schedule, noting some of the key takeaways from the four-game slate.

The spotlight was then placed on a couple of players who could contribute by surpassing expectations and those that we’re most excited to watch this season (other than a certain MVP candidate).

Of course, to conclude the roundtable, each of us shared our definitive win/loss record prediction and (WARNING) boldest Bucks take for the season ahead.
