Thanks in large part to a prolific early start, Milwaukee got themselves back on the right side of 100 en route to this particular win. Still, that shouldn’t be mistaken for this being one of the Bucks’ more dominant performances of the season.

The final score flattered the Bucks a little as they frequently fell off late in quarters, and seemed to suffer from bouts of sloppy play throughout the game, allowing the Pacers to stick around for longer than they have afforded most teams this season.

Still, a win is a win, and in the Bucks’ case it was their 53rd of the season as they get set to enter the final 20 games of the regular season.

With that in mind, let’s take a closer look at some of the game’s key takeaways.
