Seven months after suffering a devastating defeat in the 2020 conference semifinals to the Miami Heat as a No. 1 seed, the Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday avenged that loss with a 120-103 win, clinching their first-round series over the Heat in a sweep.
"It's a great moment for us, winning 4-0, and beating the team that beat us last year," Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo said. "But at the end of the day we have a long way to go."
Though his performance wasn't particularly efficient through the first three quarters, Antetokounmpo tied a career high -- and set a new personal playoff best -- with 15 assists.
