The Milwaukee Bucks dominated the Washington Wizards in Milwaukee in a performance that won’t soon be forgotten.

Early on, it seemed like the Milwaukee Bucks and Washington Wizards were going to have a real basketball game. The Bucks offense looked good, and the Wizards were hitting threes to counter Milwaukee’s buckets.

Then Giannis Antetokounmpo missed a long two, and it seemed like there was a chance that the Bucks would settle for bad shots like that again, fueling a potential Washington surge. That did not happen. Not even close.

Instead, Giannis and the Bucks pulled away and never looked back. Milwaukee outscored the Wizards in each of the four quarters–it’s pretty impossible to lose a game when you don’t lose a single quarter!

Steve Novak and Miles Plumlee got in the game, which means the Bucks were either blown out or blowing somebody else out. Luckily for fans in attendance, it was the latter this time around.

There were MVP chants heard in the BMO Harris Bradley Center on Friday! There’s a lot to talk about here. As usual, we’ll go through some takeaways to the action to recap what happened last night in Milwaukee.
