Speaking of the Bucks roster, it looks like Khris Middleton will be back in the lineup for them this Friday against the Lakers. Its been a long time since the Bucks have had their #2 player. It will certainly make them better.
Yes, the Milwaukee Bucks is indeed looking forward to see Khris Middleton again to make his debut this season on their next game versus the Los Angeles Lakers. I remember that the Bucks already listed him to be missing on their first 20 games because of that injury he sustained last playoffs, I bet they could've at least reach ECF if Middleton wasn't injured.
Expect that the Bucks will be much stronger now that Middleton has returned to the scene and Giannis can now move freely again, although, there might be some adjustments to get him in synch but I reckon that won't take long.
Yeah, Middleton's comeback is good news for the Bucks, although it's worth noting that they're performing pretty well even without him, given that they're currently in 2nd place in the Eastern Conference. As for the upcoming game against the Lakers, it should probably be an easy win for the Bucks. Nevertheless, I would prefer to see the Lakers win because by doing so, the Lakers would prove that they aren't a hopeless team and can still beat tough opponents.
The monster trio that brought the championship to the Bucks is complete, Middleton, Holiday, and Giannis. That is scary for the competition in the East and the West. Now that Giannis is at its peak, with the help of Khris and Jrue, they are on track to compete in the finals again. Their competition in the East is the duo of Brown and Tatum in the Celtics. These two are monsters as well and just like Giannis are peaking. It will be a great Eastern Conference Finals if these two teams meet. Injuries are the only think that could held these two teams from reaching the Finals.
As for the Jazz, they aren't really doing good and they are about to jeopardize their chance to be in the NBA playoffs this season. Imagine how they failed to maintain their spot for just a week, getting knockout from the playoff tree because of losing streaks.
You're right. The Jazz's performance has been really awful lately, considering they've only won 3 of their last 10 games. However, it's worth noting that the Jazz is still in 7th place in the Western Conference standings, and it means that if the Jazz's head coach finds a way to improve the performance of the players, the Jazz will still have a chance to reach the playoffs since the end of the regular season is still a long way off.
They are still performing better than other rebuilding teams. San Antonio Spurs are rebuilding as well but they are sitting at 0.273, while the Jazz are at 0.542. Having a winning record while in a rebuilding process, is an achievement. They have a working system and a good coach, imagine what they can achieve if they get a legit superstar in their roster.
