Milwaukee looking for the no. 1 spot in the East

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
Everything is ready at the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee where two East Conference teams clash today. The Bucks host the Chicago Bulls in a game that seems uneven but in which everything can happen.

Milwaukee just suffered his first home defeat this season. Just last Wednesday they received some Memphis Grizzlies that, led by Marc Gasol, surprised both locals and strangers by finishing 113-116. Another stellar night by Giannis Antetokounmpo was not enough to take the win. The Greek went up to 31 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 blocks, but only Khris Middleton followed the step with 25 points, 3 assists and 5 rebounds.

Still, the Bucks remain in 2nd place in the Eastern Conference with a record of 10 wins and 4 losses for a .714 ERA. However, Milwaukee can not relax if he wants to stay in the top positions of the conference, despite having a good start to the season, his only 4 setbacks were between the last 7 dates.

The Bulls, meanwhile, have suffered a lot in this young season and only have 4 wins and 11 defeats that send them to 12th place in the Eastern Conference with just .267 ERA. Chicago is not consistent in its results and has won 3 of the 10 most recent matches, and those victories were against bottom teams like the New York Knicks, Atlanta Hawks and Cleveland Cavaliers.

In their most recent game they traveled to Boston, where they quickly received a beating of 29 points at the hands of the Celtics. The Bulls had a five-point lead after the first quarter in which Jabari Parker went by 14 points. Despite the good start he failed to score a single goal in the rest of the game and his team was easily crushed 111-82.

It is true that it takes a leader in Chicago to throw the team on his shoulder, but with Kris Dunn, Bobby Portis and Lauri Markkanen injured, it is difficult to find someone to occupy that space.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
