The Milwaukee Bucks face some long odds as they seek to even up their first round series against the Indiana Pacers. Not only are the Bucks on the road while trailing 2-1 in the series, but Milwaukee will also be without both Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard.


Antetokounmpo is still out as he attempts to recover from a strained calf. Lillard is out due to a strained Achilles that he re-aggravated in the Bucks Game 3 loss.


Indiana now has a chance to take a commanding 3-1 series lead before things shift back to Milwaukee for Game 5 on Tuesday.

Over!

I picked IND in 6, so this might mess up my bracket. Oh well!

Dame can't do this all alone. Gotta get him some help.

Sorry, from a disgruntled trailblazer fan. Really hard to win it all

Same here. I still like the Buck's chances to pull a win in this next game. We shot lights out, Portis got ejected early, and everything just sortve trended the Pacers way last night. I'm not expecting any of that to occur again in Game 5. Pacers are obviously the better team right now and will win but I do still like the chances of it going 6 games.

One POR fan to another... Dame was never going to do it. Not in any uniform. He has never been able to handle a double team and Rick Carlisle is a solid coach that will make sure he's picked up at half-court and doubled regularly. It only took him half a game to figure it out and the moment he did MIL lost the series.

I love Dame but knew he was flawed the entire time I rooted for him. I also rooted for POR to trade him earlier, when his value was at it's peak. Now we're condemned to watch Scoot suck and Ayton pout. It will be a while before we are watching meaningful games again. It could be a decade or more. The backcourt of Scoot and Simons will never win a single playoff series. The sooner they trade them the better. They don't have a single player worth keeping on the roster... and they think they are rebuilding! :banghead:

And you thought you were disgruntled! :lol:
