It could be the series that ultimately decides the N-B-A title. The Brooklyn Nets take on the Bucks starting Saturday night in the Eastern Conference semifinals.
The Nets are heavily favored to win it all even though Philadelphia has the top seed in the East. The 76ers are playing without superstar Joel Embiid.
Both Brooklyn and Milwaukee have “Big Threes.” For the Nets it’s Kevin Durant, James Harden, and Kyrie Irving – for the Bucks it’s Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton, and Jrue Holiday.
Milwaukee won the regular-season series two games to one, but Brooklyn never had all three stars on the court in any of the games.
