Conquering the Detroit Pistons proved an easy task for Milwaukee tonight, even with a piddly scoring night from Giannis Antetokounmpo who finished with merely eight points in a rarely-in-doubt 102-89 win for the Bucks.
Michael Beasley set the tone from the outset, going 5-5 in the first quarter with Greg Monroe tapping in for the second quarter to pick up the scoring punch off the bench. Detroit looked generally disinterested in playing from the beginning, and their frontcourt had no answer for Beasley or Monroe all night. The Bucks decimated the Pistons with some of their prettiest ball movement sequences of the night, but the brunt of their success still came off isolation plays from Beas or Monroe.
