For Doc Rivers, a winning streak and deodorant

That’s why we had to wait for the 50th match of the season, or 60% of the year Bucks they finally manage to win three matches in a row. After the Bulls and Pelicans, Doc Rivers’ players disposed of the Pacers – three weak teams, therefore – achieve a pass of three.

Good news after five consecutive losses and a reminder that they have compiled these three successes without Giannis Antetokounmpo.

“It’s crazy. I said it 100 years ago: winning is like deodorant, it covers a lot of things that sometimes stink”, compares the Milwaukee coach. “When we start winning matches, the ball goes into the basket, we feel better, we want to come to training. When we lose, we don’t want to look at the pictures, everything becomes problematic, the shots are short. Now we see that the players are relaxed, relaxed, it’s pleasant.”

Since that night, only the Jazz and Wizards have yet to win three straight this season. “It feels good”Kevin Porter Jr. breathes. “We haven’t experienced that or been in this situation this season, as we would like, but we will take advantage of the moment, try to make it something permanent and continue to accumulate wins.”

Is this the start of a new season for the franchise, now that it is The Giannis Antetokounmpo file has been sidelined until this summer and the wins are finally coming?

“It’s good to continue like this. We’re on the right track,” notes Bobby Portis Jr. “The guys stayed focused. Of course there’s so much going on this season that we can go the other way again, but I like everyone to stay in the moment, fight for each other regardless of our record and have fun.”
