There is nothing to fear right now as the regular season reaches its critical point.

The Milwaukee Bucks lost their fourth straight game after giving up a double-digit lead to the New York Knicks.

The Bucks were up by 61-50 entering the second half, and they have never been the same since, as the Knicks melted down the lead in just five minutes in the third quarter.

Head coach Doc Rivers said he did not know when asked to explain how it happened.

"I just thought we came out flat. You know, we used two time outs with five to six minutes. I wish we knew why but we did," he told reporters after the loss.

The Bucks remain at the No. 2 spot in the Eastern Conference, but after two bad weeks, they are dangerously close to falling to the No. 3 spot.

No. 3 Orlando Magic and No. 4 New York Knicks are just one game behind them, while No. 5 Cleveland Cavaliers are 1.5 games behind.

Rivers on how they'll get out of slump

The last two weeks have been disastrous for the Milwaukee Bucks.

Before the Knicks' loss, they bowed to lowly teams Washington Wizards, Memphis Grizzlies, and the Toronto Raptors. The last one was even in a 15-game slump.

They also lost to the New Orleans Pelicans, who played without Brandon Ingram, and the Los Angeles Lakers, who did not have Lebron James.

With four games to go, how can the Bucks find their rhythm and bring back their confidence?

Rivers said it would be with a win.

"With a win. You need a win," he said.

"You need something to go your way. I've been through it. This team is too talented, in my opinion, to go through this."
