It may have taken 24 minutes tonight, but the Indiana Pacers finally showed some life against a Giannis Antetokounmpo-led Milwaukee Bucks squad. The Pacers, having lost nine straight to Milwaukee overall have actually lost more consecutive games when Antetokounmpo plays, entering tonight at 10 straight losses.
The number of losses speak for themselves, but the margin of defeat, 16 points per game, goes to show how ugly things have been overall. So of course, it was no surprise when Antetokounmpo and the Bucks came out with guns blazing, shooting 9-16 from three point range.
