From overwhelming quality with quantity to leveraging physicality in the half-court and sapping ball movement with ball pressure, there’s no shortage of story lines to watch for and/or talk about as the Bucks look to cinch the title for the first time in 50 years.
In Game 4, Jeff Van Gundy suggested the possibility of top-locking Devin Booker (i.e. playing high-side on screens to induce a back-cut), to cool down his hot scoring. Given that booker has posted 40+ scoring outings in each of the last two games, the argument to mix in different coverages is clear enough, but the counterpoint is that Milwaukee’s lock-and-trail, drop coverage is working as intended.
