Milwaukee Bucks Game Preview: March 2 vs Indiana Pacers
By Adam McGee
Major key for Milwaukee – Remain focused at all times
Considering the costly lapses the Bucks have had over their last three games, remaining locked in and focused and avoiding similar disappointments should be right at the top of the team’s agenda.
Stretching back further, Friday’s opponent provides further cause for Milwaukee to be wary of any drop-off in concentration, commitment or desire.
While the Bucks impressed in a comfortable win in the previous game against the Pacers at the Bradley Center, it was a completely different story in their most recent meeting at Bankers Life Fieldhouse.
Milwaukee lost 109-96, but that scoreline truly flattered them. The Bucks essentially missed the starter’s pistol, and allowed the Pacers to rout them with a 37-16 first quarter.
The Pacers are far from the East’s best team, but if they’re given confidence and allowed to build up a head of steam, they’ll certainly take advantage.
