Milwaukee Bucks Game Preview: Jan 12 vs Golden State Warriors

Finale

For any talk that they may be in cruise control to some degree, at least from a maintenance standpoint, the Warriors play with such a high margin for error on a nightly basis, which runs counter to a middling team who holds higher aspirations like the Bucks.

Of course, the tougher the challenge, the more on point the Bucks are on that given night, which makes their season so far all the more frustrating when you consider the number of bad losses they have already suffered to likely lottery-bound teams.

The Warriors know very well what the Bucks are capable of when they’re clicking on all cylinders by now and they won’t be sneaking up on the defending champs Friday night by any means. It’s all a matter of going out and executing to the fullest for the Bucks if they look to pull out the victory they’re hoping for once the final buzzer sounds.
