But team chemistry will also be a crucial factor to get over the hump. Rivers thinks that that’s something the entire team will have to work on.
He also stated that being dominant throughout the entire season will only be possible if the team stays together. So, health and the team’s tandem will be the Bucks’ biggest challenges this season.
Rivers, on his biggest challenge as coach: Health is not my challenge, but it's our challenge as a team…We have to get to the playoffs healthy.
To me, it's more about our connection as a team. I believe with what we have returning and what we're bringing in, we have enough.
