Milwaukee Bucks: Takeaways from 117-89 win over Indiana Pacers

The Milwaukee Bucks comfortably defeated another rival, as Malcolm Brogdon and the Indiana Pacers left Fiserv Forum empty-handed on Sunday night.

Back-to-backs continue to provide no real difficulty for the Milwaukee Bucks, regardless of opponent and situation.

Having played in New York the night before, the Bucks showed no ill-effects, even in a game against the Indiana Pacers that boasted a slightly more emotional edge due to the first reunion with Malcolm Brogdon.

At this point, it seems safe to say it would take a lot to knock this Bucks team off their stride, though.

For the second night in a row, this ultimately proved to be a very comfortable win, and that was thanks to an outstanding team effort. Again, Giannis Antetokounmpo didn’t score at the level we’re all used to, but he showed an ability to pick his game up in other areas to simply ensure a win for his team.

The Pacers provided a stern challenge for the Bucks in the first half, but after half time Milwaukee simply found another gear to blow their Central Division rivals out of the water.

With that in mind, let’s take a closer look at some of the most notable takeaways from Sunday’s win against Indiana.
