No time for regrets for the Bucks

We fought alone. We are all responsible, coaches, players, everyone. Doc Rivers’ analysis is crystal clear. Coach of Bucks regrets the scenario of the meeting against Houston.

For three quarters everything was going pretty well, and then in the last quarter, the rockets took advantage by taking advantage of mistakes by Milwaukee players.

“It was frustrating when we found ourselves 10 points ahead because we should have been 20 points ahead. We had a chance to break the match and we didn’t do it. Because we shot ourselves in the foot.”, continues the coach.

Giannis Antetokounmpo and his teammates lost 6 balls in the last act, including three for the Greek alone. The offense stalled, waiting for the two-time MVP to make the difference himself. The defensive work was thus made easier for the Texans, who could make the difference in the final minutes.

“In general, in the end, we have to be smarter.”

“It must be said: they were smarter, more patient, turned the ball better, found their position. But, even with that, if we apply the instructions, we have to win this match. But we weren’t smart at the end of the game.”laments the Greek. “The ball wasn’t moving much and our spacing wasn’t good. We have to play like we played three quarters. We have to keep playing rhythm, spacing, getting into the racket. In general, in the end, we have to be smarter.”

Fortunately for Milwaukee, this loss can and must be quickly forgotten, with a trip to Dallas for talks on Monday night. Mavericks who, we know thatare in very poor health at the beginning of the season.

“It’s a must win” announce Giannis Antetokounmpo. “We have to win. We should have won this game against Houston, we didn’t, we gave a game. We have another game on Monday and that’s why the NBA is great. It doesn’t matter if we win or lose, the next day we have another match, another chance to redeem ourselves. There, in Dallas, we have to win. You can’t lose twice.
