If Middleton continues to play like this and they add Giannis. The league better lookout.

Bucks might actually win this series against the Pacers without Giannis, looks like they figured how to slow down the Pacers offense

Nah this series is over cause Giannis aint coming back and Lillard/Middleton simply dont have the energy to do this every game

Went shot for shot, not much to be ashamed about for Milwaukee

The Pacers are not a good rebounding team.

To get 19 offensive rebounds is wild.

Middleton is moving much better now. He's finding his legs again after a whole season.

What a game! Middleton with crazy threes, Haliburton's game winner had me "Oh what a **** play, OMG HOW DID HE SCORE THATTTT"

They should have won this game without Giannis.

This is still very much a series.

Great play call by Carlisle getting Hali downhill

Nba players and coaches are so stupid to just not foul when up 3

It's hard because with continuation rules, you leave it up to the refs to not make that call. This is the same game where the Pacers fouled 4 shooters behind the arc. It's not as easy as it seems.

Bucks are missing one of the best rebounders in the league

I can't believe it, he looked washed during the regular season, especially being in and out with all the injuries. From a entertainment perspective hope this wasn't a fluke, will make the games so much more fun to watch

Something is still off. He is making TJ McConnell look like prime Steph Curry when it comes to shooting.

He's doing other things, but man, we need him to get his shot back.

I understand, but the Pacers don't really have any good rebounders in their lineup.

You're not wrong, I'm sure we will find out what it is at some point, but it's been since the All Star break.

This year I expected this team to make the playoffs and get a taste. Winning a series is just a bonus. This year is already a W for me, as long as Pascal comes back.

I had the same mentality, didn't expect anything from the Pacers in the playoffs this year, but getting the Bucks without Giannis did kinda make me think there is a chance we can get lucky and get more experience in round 2.

I still expect the Bucks to close out the series when Giannis returns, but the Pacers do have a chance to gain more experience.

Who ya got?
