The Milwaukee Bucks have their backs against the wall and have no other option but to win and survive. On the other hand, the Pacers are more than hyped to end the series and avoid any possible complications, including Game 7 in Milwaukee.
Milwaukee Bucks News
Some speculate that both Giannis and Lillard might return in this one, but for the moment, nothing is sure. Though, the Bucks showed fighting spirit in Game 5, destroying the rivals 115-92 and bringing back the shaken morale following the previous contests.
Khris Middleton showed why many consider him an X-factor in Milwaukee, delivering 29 points. He had 12 boards and five assists. Also, Bobby Portis had a fantastic role delivering the same number of points and grabbing ten boards. Pat Beverly posted a double-double with 13 points and 12 dimes, Malik Beasley added 18 buckets, and Brook Lopez 12.
Indiana Pacers News
We sure didn’t expect to see the Pacers being beaten that severely in Game 5, and it has come to our mind that the boys from Indianapolis underestimated the Bucks. Milwaukee’s players fought fiercely, limiting the rivals to only 36 boards. On the other hand, Indiana wasn’t aggressive enough, and they forced just three steals.
Pascal Siakam was 5-for-12 from the field, scoring 12 points, the same as Andrew Nembhard. Miles Turner had 13, and the best scorer was Haliburton, who had 16 points, six assists, and four boards. The usual speed and ball movement on the offensive side were absent, leaving the Pacers to struggle when it comes to scoring.
