The Bucks faced off against the Pacers, and the Pacers defeated the Bucks in the second half to take a 3-1 lead. The Bucks were too miserable, in the whole game, Middleton scored 25 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists with an injury, Da Luo scored 27 points, and the Pacers, Turner had 29 points and 9 rebounds, and Haliburton had 24 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists.
If you want to say the most unlucky team in the playoffs this season, I am afraid it must be the Bucks. Antetokounmpo has not made his playoff debut due to a soleus muscle strain in his left calf, and Lillard strained his Achilles tendon in the last game, and the two missed Game 4 of the first round together.
Halfway through the fourth game, Portis also chose to blow himself up and leave the court, because of the punch to Nembhard, Portis ate two technical fouls in a row and was directly ejected.
The Bucks' misfortune didn't stop there, not long after the third quarter, Middleton also returned to the locker room, and at that moment the face of the letter brother who was watching the game on the sidelines was green. Although Middleton has since returned to the pitch, it has clearly been affected by injury.
The Pacers opened up the gap in the third quarter, and the number one star Haliburton scored 9 points on 3-of-4 shooting, leading the team to a 31-21 attack wave in the first quarter to establish an advantage in one fell swoop.
Despite Da Luo's brave performance, the two fists were hard to beat the four hands, and the Pacers further widened the gap in the fourth quarter, and the faces of Antetokounmpo and Lillard were blue on the sidelines, Rivers lowered his head and pondered, and the fans couldn't help but feel distressed. With 2:10 left in the game, Turner hit a three-pointer to extend the Pacers' lead to 17 points. The Bucks are also disarmed early.
