Middleton, key to the Bucks’ big gift.

The Milwaukee Bucks seem to have regained their position as the team to beat into Eastern Conference and maybe in everything nba. This is how you 44-17 recordthe best of the East and, above all, its crash 15-game winning streak. The longer streak for any group in this campaign 2022-2023.

The most recent win came this Tuesday against the Sunken Brooklyn Nets 118-104with 33 points and 15 rebounds from Giannis Antetokounmpo and 18 from the bench for Chris Middletonwho continues to respond despite the fine restriction (comes on as a substitute and does not play more than 25 minutes).

In fact, it is far from a coincidence that the streak start matched exactly with it Middleton’s return after more than one month of absence, during a 150-130 over the Pistons. Since then, Milwaukee never lost again. And rarely, shocks happen: of the 15 consecutive victories, 12 came by 8 points or more.

The Bucks have Point 17-3 In the era with Middleton and 27-14 without him.

Chris gives it to the Bucks scorer and passer which perfectly complements the set of antitokunbotakes creative responsibilities with the ball from the Greek and exploits his appearance as a absolutely infallible definer.

The Bucks have it second best defense in the NBAa stanza that shines after it has returned to full already a Giannis starting to add arguments to contend for MVP. What at one point looked like a very erratic season for Milwaukee, puts them back on the podium as heavy favorites.

ADETOKUMBO: “Disrespectful. Don’t ask me this question”

Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo He gave a harsh response to the question about a possible trade to another NBA club:

“I’m here. Don’t ask me that question. It’s disrespectful to me and my teammates. I wear this jersey every day.

To say I don’t want to be here is disrespectful to the organization, the coaching staff, myself and everyone who worked hard to get me on the field. Don’t ask me this question. I am her. I’m going out in this uniform. And as long as I’m here, I’ll give it my all until the last second of the match.”

On the night of December 27-28, Antetokounmpo returned to the field after his calf muscle injury and became the most productive player of the game with the Chicago Bulls – 112:103.
