Rough Debut! Lillard didn't have a smooth start with the Bucks.

Lillard joining the Bucks is perhaps the most shocking trade of the year because no one expected Lillard to play for the Bucks. But can Lillard truly fit in with the Bucks? If we look at his performance in the first two preseason games, it can be described as quite disappointing. What's going on?

In fact, since Lillard joined the Bucks, there have been many questions about whether he and the Bucks' star player Giannis can play together consistently. Both of them are star players who need the ball to showcase their skills, and with Giannis having no experience of playing alongside other superstars in his career, the question of whether the two can coexist has become a topic of concern for many. But from the current performance in the first two preseason games, it seems that the results have not been very positive.

It's not necessarily that the two cannot coexist; the main issue is Lillard's performance. Lillard's debut with the Bucks did not live up to his reputation, but looking at the stats, he had 14 points, 2 rebounds, and 3 assists, which can be considered passable. At the time, Lillard used his long absence from the court as an excuse. However, in the second game, Lillard's performance not only didn't improve, but it was even worse than the first game. In the entire first half, he missed all six of his field goal attempts, and he couldn't even make the free throws he should have been able to score.

Now, Lillard's top priority is to regain his form. If he doesn't, he won't be able to coexist with Giannis, and this big trade for the Bucks will go down the drain. This is unacceptable to all parties involved. Fortunately, Lillard is an experienced player, and he has faced such situations many times before, so he has the ability to turn this around.

In the end, we can only hope that Lillard can return to his previous form; otherwise, the Bucks might become the biggest losers.

I do believe that they will become most horrible duo in NBA.
