The N-B-A Eastern Conference semifinal series starting Saturday night at the Barclays Center is the first real challenge for either the Bucks or Nets.
Both teams stream-rolled through their first-round opponents.
Three former Most Valuable Players will be on the court at the same time – James Harden, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Kevin Durant.
It will be a defensive challenge for both sides, but Milwaukee will be missing starting guard Donte DiVincenzo – who is out with an injury.
The Nets are an offensive giant, but they’ve been defensively challenged. That may be an edge for the Bucks.
Tipoff Saturday is at 6:30 p-m.
