The next playoff opponent for the Bucks will be the Brooklyn Nets this Saturday.
The Nets advanced by whipping the Boston Celtics last night 123-109, winning four out of five in the series. James Harden had a triple-double with 34 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists.
The series will start in Brooklyn with the Bucks listed as the underdogs in a playoff series for the first time in three seasons.
The Nets have three of the best players in the N-B-A in their lineup – Harden, Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. They also had one of the best 3-point shooters in Joe Harris, who hit nearly 48 percent of his shots outside the arc.
Brooklyn doesn’t play much defense, but two of the league’s best scoring teams will fight it out in this series.
Milwaukee won two of the three regular-season games, but the Nets never had their full starting lineup available then.
