I know the sample size is quite small at only 3 games, but expanding the sample size to 6 games (half the season) doesn’t show much drop of. Over the last 6 games the bucks are also top 10 in both offensive and defensive ratings. Its very encouraging to see that the bucks are playing like a top team both offensively and defensively.

Yeah, .667 win % was good enough for #3 in the east and #1 in the West last year. If this is struggling, can’t wait to see what full strength looks like.
