Milwaukee Bucks Game Preview: March 17 vs Atlanta Hawks
By Adam McGee
Finale
Quite simply, the Bucks cannot afford any further embarrassments. The Hawks are another team rooted to the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings, but much like the Magic did on Wednesday, you can rely on them to battle until the end.
The return home after a road trip should offer some respite for Milwaukee, and a St. Patrick’s Day game that doubles as Brandon Jennings‘ return to the Bradley Center should make for an electric atmosphere.
Still, all of that is secondary to the Bucks’ performance and the result, and they can only achieve what they need to do by snapping out of their rut, refocusing and finding some of their best play once again.
