In each game, the team with the home court advantage is looking to win their first game and swing back the series in their favor. There is only one matching game at 08:06 minute. "Even if it's not with points, it's getting everybody involved. rebounding the ball, pushing the tempo and putting us in the right positions out there on the floor".
The Milwaukee Bucks left the Toronto Raptors behind - again.
Milwaukee still had plenty of life, however, and when Antetokounmpo scored on an alley-oop layup from Matthew Dellavedova with 2:46 to play, the Bucks pulled to within a point.
The Raptors had history on their side, winning Game 2s against Brooklyn in 2014, and then in and Miami last season. His length and ability to take off from distance are a joy to behold.
Kyle Lowry may have confused some when he said he would just have to force some shots in Game 2 in order to be more aggressive as his teammates wanted. He sent a message early to Kyle Lowry, blocking the Raptors point guard against the backboard. Toronto was unable to capitalize on his absence and the Bucks outscored the Raptors 11-5 to end the quarter up 75-70. The second game of the best-of-seven series will be played Tuesday night at the Air Canada Centre.
"We are terribly saddened by the tragic loss of Chyna Thomas", the Celtics said in a statement.
This will not be unfamiliar territory for Toronto but with Antetokounmpo playing the way he is, a first round upset is definitely on the cards in this series.
Wright played only eight minutes and he took just one shot, which he missed, but he was active and brought energy back to the Raptors when they needed it.
The Raptors shot better, moved the ball better, and led by as many as 13 points. Antetokounmpo went for 28 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists and one block in the Bucks' surprising domination of the Raptors in Toronto, dunking over anyone who dared attempt to impede his progress to the rim, and hitting an array of jumpers to boot.

Dao suffered a concussion and a broken nose, and will undergo reconstructive surgery after losing two front teeth, Demetrio said. The doctor dragged off a United Airlines flight has said the ordeal was worse than fleeing his native Vietnam.
Maker is part of a strong rookie class for Milwaukee, which also drafted Malcolm Brogdon in the second round.
Maker channeled that energy on the defensive end in the third quarter of Game 1 on Saturday, a 97-83 win. However, he remained in the action and was arguably the Raptors' best player, finishing with 19 points and 11 rebounds.
While they couldn't snatch a second win away from home, Antetokounmpo said the Bucks had still managed to achieve something important.
"Once they got their mojo going, we didn't do a good job", Casey said. "Our guy shoots it and Giannis closes out, you know he's going to take off, so if you are on the weak side you can't offensive rebound, you have to get back".
"It's just his competitive edge", Casey said of knowing Lowry would come up big.
Their momentum continued into the second quarter, and a running jumper from Tucker capped a 12-2 Raptors run and gave Toronto a nine-point lead.
He was not himself in Game 1, a non-factor for nearly all of the game but that came to an end in Game 2.
The 2008 first round draft pick originally rolled his ankle during the third quarter of Game 1, after coming down on the foot of Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Toronto defeated the Bucks 3-1 in the 2016-17 regular season series and had beaten the Bucks in four consecutive games in Toronto before Saturday.
