Milwaukee may not be able to benefit from the normal home-court advantage that comes with that distinction, but the Bucks certainly did some home cooking throughout the second half to come away with a 14-point victory.
And the fact that it came after things looked as dismal as they did during the first half for the Bucks, where they trailed by as much as 23 points, only made the winning result that much sweeter in the end.
So without further ado and the one-seed locked down, let’s dish out grades for the Bucks’ individual efforts from their comeback victory over the Miami Heat from Thursday afternoon.
