On May 1, the Pacers played against the Bucks on the road, and the Bucks exploded in adversity, defeating the Pacers with an astonishing performance of 115-92 in the absence of the two core stars of Alphabet and Lillard, bringing the series back to 2-3. When everyone thought that the Bucks were going to play this game, all the other players of the Bucks stood up and extended their hope to the next game, and all the players went out to change the fate of elimination.
Beverly and Portis perform
In this game, Rivers revitalized all the players on the court, and despite the lack of the two big scoring weapons of Antetokounmpo and Lillard, the Bucks were not discouraged. On the contrary, they showed great fighting spirit and strength under the leadership of Middleton and Portis. Middleton and Portis were outstanding throughout the game, scoring 29 points each, and the two were key figures in the team's victory.
Middleton
Beasley, Beverley and Lopez also had good performances, with Beasley scoring 18 points on 7-of-11 shooting and 4-of-6 3-pointers, while Beverley had a double-double with 13 points and 12 assists, while Lopez scored 12 points.
Portis
As for the Pacers, although they led by eight points in the first quarter, they were gradually caught up and overtaken by the Bucks. Haliburton was one of the Pacers' standout players, contributing 16 points, four rebounds and six assists. However, apart from him, the rest of the Pacers' players didn't perform well, with none of them scoring more than 20 points, and all the other players in the key game were invisible.

The result of this game is undoubtedly a huge boost for the Bucks. Although they are still one game behind the Pacers at the moment, their fighting spirit and quality have been fully displayed. With Antetokounmpo and Lillard back, the Bucks are more than capable of turning the tide and turning the series around in the upcoming games.
The big score is now a 3-2 lead for the Pacers, and I don't know if Alphabet and Lillard can come back in Game 6, and now the Bucks have played with confidence, and if the Bucks can play a 3-3 draw, the final battle will be exciting.
