Milwaukee has reeled off six straight wins which is the longest active streak in the East and tied for the longest in the NBA. Those six wins have included some of the best teams in the NBA, and it doesn’t get any easier:
#Bucks beat the top team in the West, the #Suns 132-122.

4/3: vs Mavericks

Iron sharpens Iron:
Milwaukee will be entering the NBA playoffs as the most battle tested team over the last month of the season. Additionally they will be facing multiple eastern conference playoff teams during that stretch. Plenty of opportunities to secure tie breakers for seeding purposes. The reigning champs are going to end the season as the most prepared playoff team in the NBA. RUN IT BACK.
Oh… And a Brook Lopez return seems to be right around the corner:
#Bucks head coach Mike Budenholzer said Brook Lopez has responded well to the 5-on-5 practices with the #Herd thus far.
