For the first time this postseason, the Hawks let one truly get away. The Bucks upped their defensive pressure and forced the Hawks into 19 turnovers, and the Hawks fell in Milwaukee, 125-91.
Milwaukee's defense got especially stingy in the second quarter, when they forced 8 Hawks turnovers and converted them into 16 fast-break points and 26 points in the paint. The Bucks committed a lot of defensive attention to stopping the pick-and-roll game, and they finished the game with 15 deflections and 14 steals.
"The ball pressure at the level of the screen was a lot more intense," John Collins said afterward.
