It’s nothing personal, the Milwaukee Bucks were an embarrassment against the Kings
A record setting embarrassment against the Boston Celtics on the road is one thing. A back breaking defeat (on two days rest) at home to an NBA doormat on the verge of re-locating and playing without the face of their franchise is something else entirely.

The Milwaukee Bucks' 107-80 victory over the New York Knicks was akin to the water splashed in the face of the flavor-changing gum test subjects in those Stride commercials.
