Milwaukee Bucks vs Indiana Pacers Full Highlights 1st QTR | Jan 3 | 2024 NBA Regular Season

Pacers want to push as you should know by now in the fifth meeting these are the two best offenses in so many different categories in the league and two for two the Pacers has opened up yeah and that really is just one thing that this Pacers team

Does so well is that they score the ball really effectively from the three from the mid-range from in the paint not restricted and in the restricted so you’re seeing that already they scor the ball well from just about everywhere one of the reasons they’re so dangerous Malik attacking on the right

Side and the Box open up all for two Tyrese halberton big fourth quarter had some crucial buckets to lock it down for the Pacers and Turner goes back to back it’s a 6 nothing start yeah halber out there as a maestro he’s calling to pick and roll up but he saw a mismatch

They Beasley down low on Turner they’re getting the ball to the guy they want down low and I think Milwaukee has worked on trying to get The Littles out of there rotate to the big guy matched up with the big but they couldn’t on that one Damien Lillard fires hits his first

Shot he was three of 16 on Monday that was after hitting his first two shots at five serve you know he did that’s what makes that a little bit you go let’s just see how this turns out again a mismatch down low the guards getting the mismatches down low on Turner they’re

Taking advantage but going back to Dame knocking that last shot down you got to like the fact that he’s making shots early I just have this feeling he has this calm in his eye tonight his warm up went really well he was making a lot of

Shots which he typ oh boy here we go here we go would like to see that one go halberton using the screen that’s a three-pointer on the way Bruce Brown trying to battle for the loose ball into the hands here of Chris Chris spin move so good with that

Left hand finishing with that left hand goes high glass yeah beautiful finish like you said just makes it look easy with his off hand it’s a beautiful shot Jaylen Smith pump F straight to the rack yeah Jaylen Smith not a great game last game he was in that starting lineup

Missed the majority of his shots and I think you saw it was a very strange box score at the end of the night but as one of the starters really not a great performance for him but coming out fire all their points coming in the paint as Brook tips it out

League Beasley fires he’s coming off of another 4 three-point mate game on Monday against these Pacers and he’s just in a different Rhythm right now last five games last six games he’s making so many shots and you’re seeing he’s confident in that starting lineup he’s getting this team going with that

Three-point shooting Alberton gets knocked goes off the class you can count the bucket he’s got a free throw coming he really does have a different Swagger and I’m not saying he only plays well against the Milwaukee Buck but you can tell he sat there he got fouled he

Kind of just looked at the Milwaukee bench like I’m not going anywhere this is who I am this is what I do off the glass A little bit of contact he has really LED this Indiana Pacer team and think is playing better this year than anyone even expected

After watching what he did last year how good he was he’s really just operating with a calm out there and this indana Pac team goes as he goes yeah a couple years ago when it was a trade as Dame takes it all the way to

The in he’s got five points to open up Halton really didn’t feel like this was his team it took him a while right he got hurt last year as well but you can see with his incredible start here this year he has made Indie his home Smith from the corner not

There we were joking he came in on Monday as a 63% shooter you mentioned that he struggled shooting he comes into tonight as a 56% three-point shooter now those percentages went down from Monday to tonight yeah had rough goal if your percentage drops that much that means you miss some

Shots off the hands of Brook Lopez not a great start couple turnovers here for the bucks Brown hesitates looks for some reinforcements and into the hands here with d Malik PFF fake beautifully done oh that’s nice Malik Beasley two for two to open things up and he is a shooter and you could

Just tell he is locked and loaded he could have let that first one go probably would have got it blocked but he could have probably got it off takes his time again a mismatch down Lo need to take a foul on Turner but you just got

To love the way he sets those feet takes his time in transition Dame great job pushing the pace looking up to the corner shot fake look how he reather doesn’t shoot it too quick he knows he’s got time knocks it down boy okay there’s your 56% three or three-point shooter Jaylen Smith making

His fifth straight start in the place of obie toppen who comes off the bench and another turnover ging it right allow them to go for a big runs and uh keep as much as we can guys in front of us no if we were able to do that maybe you have aent to

Win and Chris Middleton ties the game but after the Pacers went on their first run during Monday’s match up Damen Lillard was quite vocal in the team huddle I asked him after the game about that moment he said I was telling the team this is not a team to play with you

Got to be able to recognize those things such as turnovers second and third chance scoring opportunities in the middle of the game so you can build that lead when you’re not disciplined and sharp and you don’t take care of business in those moments you can end up

In the type of situation that we did Lisa yeah it’s the ultimate respect I remember you had that report Melanie on Monday from the Huddle and it’s just the ultimate respect of the comeback ability of of the Pacers we showed you the graphic about the differences in point differential in the fourth

Quarter let’s not forget you know the the Bucks had that four-point Advantage going into the fourth on Monday we’ll go back to that December 7th semi-final meeting in the in-season tournament I went back and looked they had a three-point we remember going into the fourth quarter in that game as well yeah

It really is about how you finish and I think like you’re saying last game that we saw against Indiana it was the epitome of that when you start out 17 to4 you got Dame Get Buckets nine points in the first quarter jannis scoring 10 in the first quarter as well that’s the

Kind of start you want and obviously being able to maintain that for 48 minutes it’s a whole another challenge and Indiana played with that urgency they showed up in the fourth quarter and it’s really what’s made this five game series really interesting and the bench was obviously fantastic as well for

Indiana the tip is good here for Bobby poris who is checked in for his first minute speaking of bench the bucks on Monday went the whole first quarter without any bench points and that bench differential as there’s a guy who was big for the bench points for Indiana

Pacers Benedict Maan it’s the largest Point differential in the NBA this year with you’re comparing bench Point scoring Lopez not there Bame trying the tip make it up and down so fast here’s Brown top four teams in Pace top three offensive rating these two teams top six three-point shooting

Teams and a good adjustment right there you’re seeing although Pat was mismatched with the big fell they’re coming over helping so they have a front with the guard and some backside help and they’re still going to it they’re pursuing though those offensive rebounds as well this could

Give an opportunity here for the Pacers to push it a little bit jayen Smith his first attempt from that corner shot you can see obviously he was one for six on Monday Jaylen Smith but he’s come out been aggressive nice by damee it’s not going to count though they’re waving it

Off he he just time and time again has not gotten that call they’re going to take it out from the sideline I get frustrated for him I know because he’s saying if I wasn’t shooting when he followed me then what was I doing and obviously the rule is being put in place

To make the adjustments so we don’t get over and over over players sweeping through and just trying to draw fake fouls but on that it’s got to be that fine line of a player does a good job of drawing the contact on a
