The Bucks won the game in the end, but I don't know if it's more of their merit or the ineffectiveness of the Nets players. Joe Harris 1/11 ... another match like this is not going to happen to him soon. Overall, this match was hard to watch, lots of fight, but even more mistakes and ineffectiveness of the players. Eventually, Middleton woke up, with more points in the first half than in the first two games of this series. Brook Lopez played great in defense, blocking his rivals 6 times.

The Bucks have adjusted, they make it a defensive game and that's where they are effective.

Total points was only 169, which is not their average, they usually hit 220 points and up, but in this game, the Bucks decided to slow down the game to focus on their defense as they have some problem with their offense if they'll stay on a high pace game. Expect that the same strategy will be employed in game 4.

That game score is like one of the old time scores, you love to see it. I mean back in the day in early 2000's I remember teams had like 90 point or so average, and Pistons kept their opponents under 90 points for god knows how many games because of the amazing defense they had, it was really a great period in basketball because we actually saw defense and people trying so hard to score, it was really difficult to score which made it even more valuable to have people who scored like 35 points per game in a league with 90-100 point average, nowadays everyone started to score 30+ ppg because teams score like 120-130 points per game.

I watched the game and it was basically teams trying hard "not to lose" instead of just to win, there is a difference and that is why there was such a low score because the focus was on defense and not getting scored a ton.

Bucks were on serious fire in the first quarter of the game. They led with about 21 points before Nets got back in the game to keep a tight spread.

yeah, i was thinking that it's really a blowout but Nets with KD bounce back and almost win the game.

Quote

Bucks knew that it would be really bad for them to go 0-3 down in the series so at least this way, they would have a fighting chance.

If they allow that for sure sweep will happened to them, they really avoid it and now they've got the chance to tie it up.

Quote

With last night's win, it's not over yet for Bucks. But if harden had played, I'm sure the results would have been different since his FG would boost Nets points.

Hardens numbers will changed it up, They've might sit Harris and let him takeover and help both KD and Kyrie directing the game.

Quote

Bucks needs to win next game to put them in a better position otherwise they're right where they were.

Both teams are about to adjust and try to win this important game, it will changed everything.

Quote

Despite suffering a defeat last night, my money is still on Nets to win the series. They're a better team compared to Bucks.

They've still got the better edge though still anybody's game, Good Luck!

Jokic is MVP and certainly carrying the team very well but without your second player you are not going to be playing that well.

He deserves it and although I'm not a fan of him but he's doing well. I agree that without any help from another team mate, he won't be able to play well.

But with individual performances, he's striving and he showed what he can do but we'll see if they'll be getting a win tomorrow against Phoenix Suns.

Michael Porter Jr, needs to step up as the second option for the Nuggets, he has been putting incredible numbers in the first round, unfortunately, it was reported that he has a back spasm, that might affect his shot making. But they will be comfortable at their homecourt, so I'm expecting that Jokic will play very well in front of the Nuggets crowd and to get their first win in their series.

I'm hoping that advantage will be worth it for them.

Some body pains are really giving that disadvantage that players should be performing well but instead that stops them from doing so.

Milwaukee Bucks almost choke on the game. They have a large lead entering the 2Q but didn't maintain it and the whole game becomes close from there.

I can't imagine the criticism for the Bucks if they lose on that game. They only have literally 2 players on the court lol.

Should serve this as a lesson to them and looking forward to adjustment on Game 4. I'm Bucks +1 here with a decent payout so I'm rooting to them to win at least 3 games even it's hard to imagine.

Durant almost had that last shot. They are lucky it didn't go in or they will have a big problem in OT.
What amazed me is how they switched from being an offensive team to being a defensive one.
For most of the time during the 4th quarter, Kyrie and Durant always had a hand in their face or a body near them to mess up their shots.
I like how they put more minutes for PJ Tucker. They took him in for that purpose. High-level defense. Nice win for the Bucks.

Considering that shot as a lucky shot for the Milwaukee Bucks but I guess both teams will surely have a big problem if Kevin Durant 3 pointer went in for an Overtime, but I didn't expect for Bucks to win this one, Khris Middleton with Giannis Antetokounmpo did a great job making big numbers on the 1st quarter up to the 2nd quarter they also have the most rebounds while Nets Kevin Durant with Kyrie Irving was keeping the pace of the game in their advantage but that last shot of Durant was considered as a crucial one.

Bucks did a great thing with their defense but still, Brooklyn Nets still manage to chase the score.

Looks like the Brooklyn Nets will use James Harden in the next game, they cannot give Milwaukee Bucks another win next time since that would become a problem for them if the series is tied at 2-2. The game earlier was intense and that's how it should be between these two heavyweight teams.

Another good game between the clippers and the jazz, Ingles Bogdanovich and Clarkson light it up from the rainbow country, clippers are fighting, but what I don't like is the last foul by George there is no much time left in the game, to make that scary foul, which almost injured Mitchell, hobbling after it, George, on the other hand, can't make shots in the dying seconds when it matters the most, this happens also in game one, I hope he gets into a groove or they will be down 3-0, with the only Leonard they can't make it.

My prediction.

Nuggets vs Suns game 3.
I believe Nuggets will win because this is a very important game for them, Suns have to adjust to a new venue, so Nuggets will take advantage of that.

76ers vs Hawks.

The series is tied now but the 76ers must win both games on the road so they can finish the series at home.
Embiid is producing an unbelievable number, so the 76ers should win this game against a young Hawks team.

A nail biter moments, Middleton should really have a good game with Giannis, we all know he always put good numbers last season, he should average 25 at least with he's shooting, I hope tucker also make some adjustment in game 4 to score some baskets because he can score if he wants but what I like about him is his defense, but they really need to stop durant, this guy is on a mission for another ring.

Well said! Durant is on a mission clearing it's path to another title, he played big earlier and he really taking this into his shoulder.
A real superstar where you'll see the eagerness to win.

Defense over defense, a very slow scoring game between this two heavyweights in terms of making a basket,

I don't see much from Griffin and Harris and all those role players to help out Durant and Irving, they need to work it out and not to allow the Bucks to tied this series.

They almost beat the Bucks in this game, it's okay, give them one game so they'll be happy for a while.

I'm seeing that this series will not be going to be a long one, I'm sure the Nets will win in game 4 and will end the series in game 5.
Durant will still be in beast mode and the Nets will get better contributions from other starters, and the role-players as well.

Michael Porter Jr, needs to step up as the second option for the Nuggets, he has been putting incredible numbers in the first round, unfortunately, it was reported that he has a back spasm, that might affect his shot making. But they will be comfortable at their homecourt, so I'm expecting that Jokic will play very well in front of the Nuggets crowd and to get their first win in their series.

It had already been affecting him for 2 games. We just don't see it much because the camera won't catch his expression like he is laboring.
If he is still not 100 percent tomorrow, it will be a huge problem for the Nuggets. Jokic will do his usual routine but he need shooters on the outside to make space for him instead of being doubled.
Barton is also back and he did pretty well with just 16 minutes of playtime. 10 points with 2/5 in 3pt. That's good enough to scare the Suns defense and spread the floor.

Jokic always played well, he is the most consistent player in the team, his teammates are the ones that are needed to perform, play thought basketball in game 3 and think like it's the last game, if they lose that game, they might not be able to come back again.

Mitchell looked unstoppable, and the Jazz won again, but it worth noting that the Clippers looked stronger in the second half. LAC even took the lead in the fourth quarter, and at this moment, I hoped that the Clippers could win this match, but they were out of luck.

Well you can sum it like that, they just fall short and were out of luck. But we should give credit to the Jazz though, they are playing high level basketball and Clippers will not to match it. We are going back to Clippers home court, so I expect them to win game 3, just like what the Bucks did against the Net, to at least make the series exciting. So I will be betting for Clippers in the next, maybe ML or handicap.

Why expecting to win the game 3 while Clippers is at lost and in need with huge adjustment. I'm sure the pressure is now hitting in their bones since Jazz seems unstoppable eventhough Conley is out of the game maybe they need to do a lot of works to find out which rotation om their rooster can stop the high phase play of Jazz maybe they should find ways to stop Donovan and Clarkson since if they limit this guys provably the Jazz will struggle.

If the Bucks lose on that game, the series will be over. The morale of the team will go down drastically and they will wait again next season.
The dynamic duo of the Bucks redeemed themselves as they scored more than 30 points and got a 10+ rebound each with their win.

Harden might play in Game 4 as long as he is ok to play. The Bucks might win in this game but overall, I will go in Nets in 7 games still Cheesy

The clippers will not be swept by the Jazz, let's be smart and knows how this playoff goes.

Bet on the Clippers now, double it in game 3 if they'll lose.

This is the best scenario that a martingale method will work, just trust the team, they'll never be like the fate of the Miami Heat.

I don't see a swept on the Clippers but they will not win on this series

.
I don't think that the Clippers will just give Game 3 to Utah but still there is a risk to it. You will never know although the chances of them winning is higher right now.

Its raining threes at Vivint Arena. 20/39. More than 50%. I said already that their three point shooting will be their key in winning this series and it looks like I'm right with it Cheesy

. Knowing that this team has the most number of threes in a single season, I believe that they will use the same in the whole series. Mitchell still can't be stopped and he got 37 points and 4 other players are in double digits. This is without Conley. What if Conley will play Cheesy

I think Harden playing will immensely help Brooklyn and give them a different look than whay they have been the past three games. I mean this Game 3, Bucks could have figured them out in the sense that they could hang with Brooklyn if they just play enough defense and make it an ugly game like what happened tonight. I expect Brooklyn to be sharper next game, however I think the team playing with home court is a huge factor in this series.
This might be the biggest test for Brooklyn or they might even be deadlier once Harden plays in Game 4. We'll see.

That would be a different game when Harden is there and play with the Nets, not only his scoring capabilities but also his passing capabilities that will really changed the tempo of this series.

Bucks have the home court advantage but they only led by 3 after winning this game 3, imagine how the game was if you'll add the stats of Harden,

Still a long way for both teams and the series still for anyone to win.
