Boston - Milwaukee 101: 89 (0: 1 to Milwaukee in the series)

Boston came in top form for this series.

After an impressive sweep over Durant and Kyrie's Brooklyn she also met a team that played without her No. 2 player Chris Middleton.

But whoever thought of mourning Yannis and the proud champion was greatly deceived already in the first game where the Bucks dominated from the first moment and did not lose the lead until the end with a very impressive dominance achieved mainly thanks to two players: Yannis Antocompo and Jero Holliday.

Boston opened the fourth quarter eight points behind, but the Bucks opened the fourth quarter with a 2: 9 run and climbed to a record 72:87 lead thanks to a three by Bobby Fortis and from that Boston could not come back, certainly not on a Milwaukee day like this.

Antocompo finished this game with a second triple-double in the playoffs contributing 24 points, 12 assists and 13 rebounds.

Jero Holliday led the winners with 25 points and 10 rebounds and Bobby Fortis gave the added value with 15 points, including a critical three in the final quarter.

Milwaukee won mostly thanks to the great defense of the Boston star duo.

Jason Taitum scored 21 points with 6 of 18 from the field, Jaylen Brown added 12 points and 9 rebounds, but was accurate with just 4 shots out of 13. Al Horford added 12 and 10 rebounds to Boston, which went into the hole already in the opening The series and will have to win at least once in Milwaukee to get back to business in the series.
