Milwaukee Bucks: 3 things to watch for as New York Knicks visit Fiserv Forum
By Adam McGee
Two days after their Christmas battle, the Milwaukee Bucks and New York Knicks will meet again. This time, the action takes place at Fiserv Forum.
The Milwaukee Bucks and New York Knicks know each other pretty well at this point. Perhaps, like a family spending too much time together over the holidays, they could even do with a break from each other’s company by now.
On that front, both teams will get their wish as Thursday’s game marks the fourth and final matchup between the Bucks and Knicks this season, coming just two days after they last played on Christmas Day at Madison Square Garden.

Outside of the anomaly of a red-hot three-point shooting night for New York that led to an overtime win, the series has played to the script set out by the team’s respective places in the standings.
Both of Milwaukee’s wins have come by double-digit margins, and the hope will be to make it a hat-trick of such wins by approaching Thursday’s contest with the same kind of focus and intensity they demonstrated on Christmas Day.
Of course, there’s also a possibility that Mario Hezonja comes out of hiding and Giannis Antetokounmpo exacts revenge, which alone should make this a must-watch for NBA fans.
With all of that considered, let’s take a closer look at what you should be watching out for as the Bucks and Knicks go head-to-head one more time on Thursday.
