In an oddly-specific Friday afternoon Game Three between the Milwaukee Bucks and Indiana Pacers, what looked like another blowout turned into a bonafide thriller. It had shot making, defense, offensively stupid rebounding, and overtime to boot. The Bucks lose 118-121, but it was a hell of a fight.
Game Recap
For about five minutes the Bucks defense looked solid enough in the half court, preventing the Pacers from generating too many easy looks. Offensively, the shot selection was iffy (Bobby Portis was a culprit here with his bad touch and iso tendencies), and after an uncontested transition basket for Tyrese Haliburton the gates looked wobbly.
