Bucks Preview: Game 14 vs Pistons

After breaking their four-game losing streak with what has turned into a three-game winning streak, the Bucks look to continue their run tonight against the Pistons.

Detroit Pistons (10-3)

Offensive Key

The Pistons have won 5 in a row (with the first of those wins coming against the Bucks), and in all 5 of those games they’ve scored over 100 points. During Milwaukee’s three-game win streak, on the other hand, they’ve only scored 100 points once. This means that the Bucks will need to score over 100 points tonight if they want to end Detroit’s win streak and continue their own. As always, this will come down to Giannis’s supporting cast, and particularly Eric Bledsoe, Khris Middleton, and Malcolm Brogdon.

Defensive Key

One of the things the Bucks have done well during their win streak is force turnovers. In fact, their two highest forced turnover totals of the season have come in two of the last three games (specifically, the Spurs game and the Lakers game). If the Bucks can continue to play good team defense (as they have since Eric Bledsoe came to town) and force turnovers, they’ll be well on their way to their fourth straight win.
