Milwaukee Bucks Game Preview: March 5 at Indiana Pacers
By Adam McGee
Finale
Having just picked up an important win against a potential playoff opponent the previous night, and with a relatively soft schedule upcoming following a daunting clash with the Rockets on Wednesday, this game represents a real chance for the Bucks to get moving in the right direction again.
Even through an impressive win over the Raptors, it’s been a little while since the Bucks had a complete performance that resulted in a comfortable and convincing win, but this would be a really great time to return to that well.
As the Pacers close the gap on the Cavaliers in third, the Bucks will have to be at their best to win, though. Based on recent meetings between the teams, they’ve no reason to take the threat posed by Indiana lightly.
