Play Suggested

With his second basket, Giannis Tom Chambers surpassed 50 on the scoring list all the time, and that was 16 depending on the first timeout thanks to some cute shooting production early from both troops. Milwaukee couldn’t capitalize much on some early Cleveland revenue when they cooled, but lady and giannis (nine first quarter points each) did enough work to keep it tight. Visitors were ahead 34-32 after 12 minutes.

Doc Rivers’ usual reserve lineup turned the ball over four times in the opening 2:11 of the other, enabling Cavs to open a seven-point edge. Giannis subbed then back in, but a 7-0 Cleveland race pushed it to 11. Lady reintroduced to get it back within single-digit cards until a red-hot max strase made it a 15-point lead with a personal 8-0 race. Despite reducing it again to nine, it was 62-52 Cavs at half when Bucks was outscored 28-20 in the other. Giannis had 18 and lady had 14 during the break that exceeded any cav, but no other bucks had more than six.

More Kyle Kuzma faults in the opening phase of the third do not allow Milwaukee to close closer than seven, triggering an early Kevin Porter Jr. -observation. He was the juice that Bucks needed to close it to four in the latter minutes, but he went out for Lillard just after the two-minute field and Cleveland recognized their advantage to 10. Lady converted one and one with 0.4 back to put his team within striking distance, down 84-77 to three.

A slurked start to the fourth of both sides (eight combined revenue in the first five minutes) meant that Bucks did not get closer than five, and then found behind 11 less than a minute later. Milwaukee did not score for over four minutes, and several revenue made it a 14-point game in the fourth quarter center. Cavs’ race grew to 13-0, and fans began to go towards the exit with 4:35 back and the homemade down 18. While Bucks soon broke their scoreless line, they went quietly when Doc went to the deep bench a minute later.

State that stood out

In the first quarter, Bucks only turned the ball once. In the last three quarters? 17. Seventeen! Cleveland scored 17 points from them.
