It seemed as if Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks had the Raptors number early in this series. After the Bucks jumped out to a 2-1 lead, the Raptors have won back to back games and now lead the series 3-2. This Milwaukee Bucks team is filled with potential but they are lacking playoff experience like all good young teams do. We’ll see what they’re made of with their backs against the wall on Thursday. The same could be said for the Raptors though. If they’re for real, they won’t let this get to a Game 7.
The second game of the night is Spurs-Grizzlies with Game 6 back in Memphis. The Spurs jumped out to a 2-0 lead but after Game 2 postgame rant from Grizzlies coach David Fizdale, the Grizzlies found new life. Memphis bounced back and won the next two games at home, extending the series as much as they could. The Spurs now lead 3-2 going into tonight’s game but Memphis has been fantastic at home, so anything could happen.
