The Raptors and Bucks put up the lowest-scoring first half of the NBA season thus far on Wednesday night as Milwaukee took a 39–38 lead into the break.
Toronto didn’t even score its first point until almost seven minutes into the game, which was televised on ESPN, after the team missed its first 15 shots. The first quarter finished with the Bucks leading, 13–12.
ESPN personality Stephen A. Smith, who is known for sharing his unfiltered opinions, went on a hilarious rant during halftime about the “butt-ugly basketball” being played in the prime-time game.
