Two of the top contenders for winning the NBA title this year, the Milwaukee Bucks and the Denver Nuggets, clash at the Mile High this Monday night. It will be Giannis vs. Jokic, and hopefully, the Greek star won’t run away like Joel Embiid did two nights ago. Both units play very good basketball and are in great shape.
Milwaukee Bucks
The Bucks made a switch at the head coaching position, and we expect to see Doc Rivers leading the former champs in Colorado. The former NBA champion, with the Celtics himself, has a nice chance to attack the Larry O’Brien trophy once again, with his current unit having two megastars – Giannis and Lillard.
The Bucks had three wins in a row before losing to the Cleveland Cavaliers in their second of back-to-back events at the Fiserv Forum. It was 112-100 for the guests from Ohio, but after that event, Milwaukee bounced with a big win over the New Orleans Pelicans, 141-117.
Denver Nuggets News
The Nuggets had the same situation, winning three in a row and then losing to the New York Knicks 122-84. All of these events were on the road, with the champs having to endure a very demanding tour through the East, where they met with the 76ers and lost.
However, they avenged that defeat this Saturday night, beating the Embid-less Philly 111-105. We have to say that once more Embiid ran from a challenge, failing to appear at the Ball Arena. Jokic had 26 points, 16 boards, and seven assists, while Jamal Murray scored 23 points, three more than Michael Porter Jr.
