(WNFL)- The Milwaukee Bucks will find out late tonight who they’ll face in the first round of the playoffs but appears to be the Chicago Bulls. The Bucks have the number six slot in the Eastern Conference, and they’ll play the number three team. Chicago is now in that spot, after Toronto dropped from third to fourth last night with a 95-93 loss to Boston. Former Marquette forward Jae Crowder hit the winning basket with eight-tenths of a second left. The Bucks close out their regular season tonight at home against the Celtics. A win would give Milwaukee its first winning campaign since 2010. They’re 41-40 right now. There’s still a chance that Milwaukee could face Toronto in the first round. But the Bulls would have to lose to Atlanta tonight, and the Raptors must beat Charlotte. A series with Chicago might not bode well for Milwaukee’s young team. First of all, the Bucks lost their regular season series to Chicago three to one. Second, Bulls fans tend to fill most of the seats for their games in Milwaukee and they cheered their team to nine straight victories at the BMO Harris Bradley Center before the Bucks finally won there by four points on April first.
