The Indiana Pacers and Milwaukee Bucks are one of the more anticipated matchups in the first round of the NBA playoffs. The Bucks made a big statement in game one by getting out to a big early lead and never letting it go.
Game two was a much different story as the two teams went back and forth for much of the game, but the Pacers seemed to have the Bucks’ number all night.
The two teams had some pretty heated moments during the regular season and that continued in the playoffs.

It was a straight up dangerous foul by Obi Toppin. He pushed Pat Connaughton in the back while he was in the air for a dunk/lay-up.
Obi Toppin was accessed a flagrant foul for the push and the Bucks converted.
