The Bucks had a controversial regular season, replacing Adrian Griffin with Doc Rivers as head coach, but they still approached the playoffs as one of the top favourites in the East. It must be said that Milwaukee was unlucky. Even without Yannis Antetokoumpo, the Bucks put up serious resistance to Indiana and only gave up the third game in overtime, but they were without Damian Lillard for the fourth game. It is clear that in the absence of two key players Milwaukee had little chance of success. The result was a 113:126 defeat and a two-game losing streak.

The Pacers so far in the confrontation with the Bucks only the first meeting, when, as if afraid, the team could not show anything in attack - 94:105. Then the best offence of the season started to unlock its potential. In the next three games, Indiana never left the court with less than 121 points. Of course, the Bucks' weakened roster couldn't do much to counteract the Pacers' efficiency in the backcourt. Indiana is one step away from advancing to the conference semifinals.

After the defeat in the fourth game, Milwaukee's prospects are not at all believable. And even if Yannis Antetokoumpo returns to the floor, it's obvious that the lack of game practice will have a negative impact on the Greek's condition. Accordingly, we believe that the Pacers will close out the series, and the game will be a high-scoring affair. Indiana has played well and time after time confirms the status of the best attack of this season.
