Why The Trade Benefits The Bucks
The Bucks have struggled advancing in the postseason because of their lack of explosiveness around Giannis Antetokounmpo. Milwaukee is looking to advance to at least the conference finals and this could happen by adding players around their back-to-back MVP. Derrick Rose is an example of the kind of player they need to acquire.
During the restart, Milwaukee struggled during the preliminary games and lost in the second round to the Miami Heat. Brook Lopez struggled and Khris Middleton had difficulty creating his own shot on the perimeter.
Milwaukee is hoping that Jrue Holiday will fix this notion, but a trade for Rose would add depth and experience to the lineup.
When looking at championship caliber teams, they all have stars mixed in with depth and experience in their lineup. That is something Milwaukee lacked and it has been clear over the last few years.
They are clearly good enough to win in the regular season, but to compete beyond, they will need to add some players. Rose would be a perfect addition.
