The Milwaukee Bucks didn’t need Giannis Antetokounmpo (who was out with reported neck soreness, per Bucks’ Twitter) to blow out the Cleveland Cavaliers. Cleveland came out slow and got buried quickly. They couldn’t hit a shot on the offensive end and weren’t doing much to make up for it on the other end. Milwaukee jumped out to a 31-18 lead after one and extended that lead to 29 points in the second half. The Cavs fought back to cut the lead down to 11, but it was too little too late.
The worst part of Monday’s game wasn’t the result on the floor.
