The Milwaukee Bucks have been on a roll lately, as they now have a 12-11 record following a 2-8 start to the season. According to Bobby Portis, head coach Doc Rivers isn’t getting enough praise for keeping the team together and turning their fortunes around.
“Early in the season, we didn’t really have a lot of camaraderie and chemistry–obviously, we added new pieces. We hadn’t played with Giannis in a while. He got hurt against the Celtics late last season, sat out the playoffs, and now we’re trying to get re-familiarized with the team. I like our vibe. Our vibe never was off. The vibes were always there,” he added.
