Bucks Flash Game 7 Blueprint in Critical Win Over Nets

We saw Brooklyn’s path to victory in the Eastern Conference semifinals on Tuesday night as Kevin Durant erupted and the Nets canned 16 threes in a 114-108 win. Milwaukee’s blueprint may be less aesthetically pleasing, but it was on full display on Thursday in a series-saving 104-89 home victory.

Milwaukee’s win on Thursday wasn’t exactly an offensive symphony. The Bucks hit just seven of 33 threes as a team, including a 1-for-10 mark from Jrue Holiday. The third quarter featured the worst of Milwaukee’s offense, when the game devolved into a stream of isolations and late-shot clock jumpers.
