Milwaukee showed character from the first moment, attacking the Hawks in the first minutes.

Sponsored by great minutes from Brock Lopez and Chris Middleton, the Bucks' advantage stood at 20 points already during the first quarter.

Bogdan Bogdanovich took responsibility in Atlanta and offset the difference to almost single-digit with his own hands, but then Jero Holiday and Bobby Fortis (who started in the top five instead of Yannis, and continued to impress) pressed the pedal, making sure the Bucks' victory was unquestionable All the way and did not drop the advantage even for a single moment.
