This past week, a terrifying thought entered my head for the first time this season: What if the Milwaukee Bucks offense is incapable of translating to the playoffs?
Maybe it's a case of once burned (thrice burned? five times burned?), twice shy, but with the Bucks posting the league’s 18th-ranked offense in the past five games of play, something like flashbacks flew through my mind. What I saw this week was unremarkable in one way and worrisome in another. The defense remains a travesty almost assuredly beyond fixing no matter the personnel or a radical scheme change halfway through the season.
