The one Bucks player who wasn't winded was Antetokounmpo, who continues to shoulder a major load for a Milwaukee team that has struggled to maintain its status as a title contender this season. The Bucks won the In-Season Tournament championship in December, but that was one of the few bright spots in an up-and-down year.

So far in this series, Giannis Antetokounmpo is averaging 35.0 points and 15.0 rebounds on 65 percent shooting from the field so far in this series. Portis is Milwaukee's next highest scorer, at just 16.0 a night, and there is no one else shooting above 50 percent for the series.

Aft͏er the g͏ame͏, Gianni͏s Ante͏toko͏unmpo didn͏’t shy away fr͏om ͏the pressur͏e the ͏Buc͏ks are f͏acin͏g. “My min͏ds͏et͏ rig͏ht now is͏ G͏ame T͏hree,” he͏ said. “I know the ͏ (expletive) deal, man.͏ I jus͏t know the dea͏l. I know what I go͏tta͏ ͏do... It’s life or͏ ͏death. ͏That͏’s how it is for me.”
