The Milwaukee Bucks got smacked by the Philadelphia 76ers, but rebounded nicely in back-to-back victories without Giannis Antetokounmpo, who sat out with back soreness. Rohan Katti has more on the Giannis-less wins, Khris Middleton stepping up, Eric Bledsoe's impending return, and Robin Lopez hitting a groove in his Bucks vibe check. Plus, Ti Windisch has more on both the last and next week of Bucks and Herd basketball, Milwaukee's cupcake back-to-back schedule, and the non-Giannis Bucks MVP of the week. - The Buck Starts Here is a special Monday episode of the Gyro Step, and is designed to give Bucks fans all the info they need in a quick pod.
