Milwaukee Bucks: 5 goals for 2019
1. Make the NBA Finals
At the beginning of the season, this was probably a pipe dream. Although the Bucks were talented, few some them as true contenders to the top Eastern Conference teams like the Toronto Raptors, Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers.
My, how quickly things have changed. Now the Bucks are one of the primary frontrunners and appear poised to at least make the Eastern Conference Finals. However, Milwaukee shouldn’t be satisfied with anything other than an appearance in the NBA Finals. Even then, the Bucks should believe they can hang with anyone and win it all.
Before we get too far ahead of ourselves and talk about an NBA title, however, a simple goal of a deep playoff run is probably needed. After all, this is a team that hasn’t made it past the first round of the playoffs. That lack of experience might come into play down the road, but not before the Bucks do some damage first.
