After Action Report

In Milwaukee, the Bucks downed the Pacers 124-113. The breakneck pace played right into Bucks' hands. Bucks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Bucks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Bucks locker room is humming, and it showed. Bucks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Bucks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bucks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
