Milwaukee Bucks Preview: Game 5 at Toronto Raptors

Finale

This series is now officially in crunch time. Whoever wins next will have control of the entire thing going forward, and be just one win away from taking on the Cleveland Cavaliers in the second round of the NBA Playoffs.

The Bucks should feel bittersweet about the losses that have let Toronto back into this series. On the one hand, the Raptors never looked great against them. This team has been thrown off, at least to a certain extent, by Milwaukee’s length and athleticism.

On the other hand, it’s hard not to look back, especially at Game 2, and think Milwaukee let a winnable game slip away. There’s not much time for that now though–the Bucks need to be focused on what’s next, not worried about past performances.
