CHA Hornets - BKN Nets

0-2 deficit, in the first one we managed to hold on, but in the second game the Bucks showed character, although they couldn't complete the comeback. Kuzma and especially Portis played well, and Lillard maintained his strong form, as we're used to. I believe the Bucks have a chance to come back and win this series, but they need to start doing it at home. This team will play with desperation and I believe it's possible for a blowout to happen. The Pacers aren't a team that leaves a strong impression on the road, even last year they were only 2-7 on the road before making it to the Eastern Conference Finals, and that was without Giannis (+ Lillard in one game).

0-2 loss for the Bucks and they return home. There is nothing to do here, either win or the series is over, no one has ever recovered from a 3-0 deficit. Lillard returned and the Bucks looked better in the previous game, even though they did not play very well. The Bucks have not lost at home against the Pacers this season. Both the Bucks and the Pacers are better at home and having the home court advantage means a lot.

Upon Lillard's return, Green only played 12 minutes in the last game, but he can also play 15-20 minutes alongside Lillard. The player realistically only hit 3-pointers, unless he is able to make quick shots, then he can score 2-pointers as well. He has an average of 7+ points per game this season, in the first game he scored 15 points, but in the second game he scored 0 points with a decreased number of minutes. However, he is still a player who can make difficult shots and can be an x-factor from the bench. As I believe that the Bucks will win today, Green's 3-pointers will be needed for that.
