Last night’s contest between the Milwaukee Bucks and Brooklyn Nets was far from an ideal start in Game 1 of this series.
Despite Brooklyn losing All-Star guard James Harden within the first minute of the game as he left with a recurring hamstring issue, they handled their business and took Milwaukee down 115-107. Although the final difference was merely eight points, the Nets were in firm control of this game throughout the entirety of the second half after the Bucks tried to make things competitive during the first two quarters.
