00:06and preparing for battle each guy with his own approach to getting ready for what should be
00:11an excellent matchup welcome to thursday night basketball on 2k sports glad to have you along
00:18hi everyone here with analyst grant hill and park kello i'm brian anderson ali la force our reporter
00:25let's take a second to check in on the race for rookie of the year and see how the rankings
00:30are
00:30shaping up for this year's class of new nba talents well you look at james there were a few bright
00:36spots
00:36during the season for him but overall just not enough to bring him up towards the top and it's
00:41been a lot of fun to watch this group of rookies grow and improve as the season's gone along and
00:47you know what every year is a little different but this year is really special in terms of the quality
00:52of the depth when you look at the talent of these incoming players you'd be hard pressed to match
00:58it in recent years now the starting group for the visitors mitchell out there with keon ellis then
01:05there's torian prince then it's rui achimura and it's kata in at the five roaming the paint and for
01:11the bucks yannis plays the four with porter playing at center then it's gary harris then there's gary
01:17trent and it's rollins in at the point and clark after the all-star break it must be difficult to
01:23jump right back into playing full time well i tell you when you're accustomed to playing every other
01:27night or four nights and five nights and then you get a break it is hard to get right back
01:32into it
01:32but typically it's a restart and a reset and that adrenaline and excitement about what's on the
01:38horizon gets guys ready to go pass to ellis three-pointer yannis anacumpo grabs the board
01:45and so anacumpo will bring it up for the bucks down low and it's portis that time on the assist
01:52by anacumpo and you can just see how confident portis is inside of me very comfortable there feels
01:58like he can score whenever he wants to
02:03mitchell the pass to prince drills it from deep he's consistent from out there especially when
02:10you give him that kind of room here's anacumpo nice start for him sinking his first shot you know
02:18that this is where yannis wants the ball but how do you stop me i don't have the answer here's
02:24mitchell
02:25and he drops in the layup off the glass just taking it right to the rim and no one was
02:30there
02:30to greet him well this early they should be showing a lot more energy on defense it's not there
02:36now here's harris and harris throws it down you know even though he's just 6'4 harris can throw it
02:43down now don't sleep on this guy's bounce mitchell the pass to prince over trend that's short off the
02:51rim that's a decent look for him he just couldn't convert
02:55here's portis good and anacumpo gets the assist they've really come out swinging hitting four of
03:02their first five shots gone three of five here in the opening quarter when you watch bobby portis
03:09he's extremely physical but he could also space the floor clark yeah i like that combination ba it
03:15makes him a unique matchup and a tough matchup i mean one play he's thumping and bumping you around
03:20and then on the next play he's knocking down the three and he's doing it all with great energy and
03:26intensity when yannis enters the lane it just collapses sucks your defense right in which opens up the three
03:41he's going to work early on the offensive glass he's so amped up how about early attack goals i love
03:50the
03:50approaches coming to this game with really strong with the explosive leaping ability
03:55he's able to play center despite being undersized and the visitors call time here
04:05holmes he's checked in ford cata and for an idea of how the league is shaping up right now
04:10take a look at these latest power rankings you look at the timberwolves they're building some momentum
04:15right now and aiming for a spot in the top five you know right now for the visiting team
04:21they are about average when we get to this point in the season right in the middle your ranking is
04:27just who you are mitchell perfect night so far two for two starting to find his rhythm he's cooking
04:34and he knows it and you know what they're going to keep using i mean he'll be the centerpiece of
04:38their offense today you can bank on that and the basket by out of the kumpo boy the added work
04:44in
04:44the weight room for yannis coming into play there i mean you got to send an army to try to
04:49stop this guy
04:51and mitchell with the slam what a finish i mean he just took over himself what a show of power
04:58right there from the point guard man sweet and you know guys when your point guard is making explosive
05:04plays at the rim i really do think it sets the tone for the rest of the team that's been
05:10the story
05:10of their offense so far getting a number of looks from point blank range holmes passes to prince over
05:17trent prince can't hit and so trent will bring it up for the bucks and it's just so hard to
05:25stop
05:25them when they're scoring at that level they were efficient and didn't let up at all well it's really
05:30hard to stop them when they're in a groove offensively and they were in a comfort zone
05:35all game long and now here's ellis following the score by milwaukee
05:42here's mitchell he's got it four for four now he's automatic impeccable mechanics this sport he's
05:50been perfect from the field wallett passes to anna kumpo here's harris and a great assist by anna kumpo
05:59and that one goes in anna kumpo has got his fourth assist with that last one that's to prince
06:10now ellis he really had an off game against the rockets and it's prince with the three
06:16prince has got six you know when he was coming out of college this is exactly what scouts thought
06:21prince would be a strong three and d wing who plays with a lot of effort now here's anna kumpo
06:2817 points in his last outing hitting the afterburners to get the easy slam you know clark
06:34last season saw the passing of junior bridgeman who played 10 seasons with the bucks and whose jersey
06:39hangs in their rafters yeah he was a consistent reliable scorer and just a quality teammate as well
06:47but his legacy extends far beyond what he did in his 10-year career which was quite impressive
06:52his legacy as a businessman philanthropist community leader was in many ways unparalleled
07:02just a terrific guy and a great loss to louisville to the basketball family but also to humanity
07:09he was a shining star in all that he did for others and guys let's get your take on the
07:16scoring
07:17breakdown for the bucks well we've seen them take advantage of the lanes given to them so far
07:22the defense isn't plugging it up and it's being exploited in addition to that they've thrown their
07:27weight around inside tonight too thumping and bumping in the paint a lot of their points have come from
07:32inside catching up on the changes for milwaukee porter jr comes in for harris and anthony subbed in for
07:46rollins
07:48both free throws good for mitchell that's what he does rock solid at the line milwaukee in the lead
07:55here's anthony here's portis sinks another one he's on a roll starting four for four wow they're
08:04really being taken advantage of defensively out there no room protection whatsoever
08:10pass to achimura james outside and they're unable to get the time bucket there milwaukee leading by
08:18three and he lobs it up to the rim and the ball goes out of bounds last touch by on
08:25a cupo
08:26well a chance to check out some stats for keon ellis over the past 10 games his effective field goal
08:32percentage has really taken a tumble in layman's terms his offense just isn't as well-rounded as it
08:38could be right now
08:39and he's coming off a huge performance and his confidence couldn't be any higher and his coach knows
08:57that too showing no signs of slowing or cooling down they're going to ride him as far as he can
09:02take
09:02anthony misses
09:06gone two of five from deep lets it fly and unable to get the go-ahead bucket there
09:15onto the cupo with it oh nice big finish
09:19how about the flash by onto the cupo i mean just an insanely talented athlete who loves
09:28to punish that rim an impressive display how about that look on the at&t connected can
09:34and it's achimura missing the bucks leading by three
09:40pass to anthony
09:43from eight feet watson with a rebound
09:48on the wing achimura here's mitchell and mitchell with the slam
09:55i'll tell you a little extra pressure on d when you're up against a point guard who can elevate
10:00it doesn't make it easy does it and you know guys showing how dynamic a weapon he is for this
10:06offense
10:06they feed off of that energy and ability to make plays it gets them going yep that one goes and
10:13the
10:13bucks lead by three the closer the better for anthony as is the case for most guys he just wants
10:19to drop
10:19that one in that one's good from james on the assist by mitchell i know it's early but you have
10:27to wonder if these offenses can keep this up high octane action for sure crowd-pleasing already and
10:35just shredding apart the defense with his passing he's helping to pace this offense so well you know
10:40numbers don't always tell the story guys but his assist totals do paint the picture here i mean he's
10:45got everybody involved janice anacumpo has been on display for milwaukee absolutely carrying the
10:51offense he ends the quarter with 14. back to the game after this break
11:11and we hope you're enjoying the game both teams tonight keeping things pretty even on the
11:16scoreboard so far all right what stands out to you from milwaukee in this one they're off to a rock
11:22solid
11:22start they brought a well thought out plan into this one yeah you know what makes it really easy
11:27for the coaching staff in that case no adjustments needed just keep on keeping on
11:36the bucks leading by three they've got peyton watson james is out there with charles bassey
11:41and it's gillespie in at the point here's porter kicks it out to jackson the three-pointer off the mark
11:52here's gay
11:57the rebound by sims
12:02jackson outside
12:04pass to porter there's the triple gay with a rebound
12:10shooting it well at 59 percent here's bassey banked it in off the glass
12:15bassey's gotten his first bucket of the night those are the looks they want to continue to generate
12:21and here's porter outside and another miss by milwaukee porter's gone one of three shooting so far
12:30here's gay he's marked by finney smith that puts him in the lead and that's how you move the ball
12:36putting the defense in a really tough spot the bucks have got none of their first three shots to fall
12:41so
12:42far in the second and anthony slams it in anthony point up top don't let his size fool you folks
12:49bow's got some hops
12:53pass to gay here's gillespie the three hits the trifecta gillespie's got his first bucket of the
13:01game and he's on the board for three oh another lead change six total in the first half and this
13:07is
13:07the battle we were hoping to see hey i know he makes a lot of threes but he is not
13:11just a shooter
13:11finney smith will throw it down on you if you're not careful
13:18here's gay he's marked by finney smith
13:21pass to gillespie
13:24two shots two makes off to a good start and their opposite game plan is clear get it inside and
13:32go to
13:32work and so timeout here by doc rivers and we might see some changes coach potentially looking to adjust
13:47a lot of the kumplos checked in for sims harris comes in for jackson and it's rollins in for porter
13:55jr
14:08rollins passes to finney smith
14:11three-pointer anthony the offensive rebound for an extra effort by yannis the multi-time mvp he's just
14:20built a little differently ellis passes to prince here's gillespie now here's hachimura on an akumpo
14:29covering pass to watson prince against harris from 17 prince with the bucket prince has got eight
14:40the mid-range jumper isn't the most popular shot these days but it's working for them i love that
14:46mid-range shot it's definitely giving the defender something extra to think about look at what he's
14:51doing here and it's hard to imagine him playing much better well that might be fair but i wouldn't
14:57want to take away from what he did in that last game i mean let's just say it's a pretty
15:01nice run
15:02he's on no matter how you decide to frame it up and plays like that one can make the difference
15:08in a
15:09close game and it definitely got the bench on their feet too making a statement for sure i mean we'll
15:15see if they can maintain that aggressive approach guys let's check in with our reporter ali la force
15:21hey guys yannis antetokounmpo is embracing his emotional leadership role he said before it was
15:26really serious and quiet now i'm more vocal smiling having fun it carries over i love the lead by
15:32example but i know that my voice carries a lot of weight back to you it sure does ali thanks
15:38very
15:38much for the report anthony misses yeah he's really scrambling to keep them in this game gotta respect
15:45that hustle back to prince right side watson has to achimura releases and he sinks that one hitting the
15:56back of the ram on the way in watson's got four points in the quarter grant you played in a
16:01more
16:01physical era of the nba now it seems like the league is trying to strike a balance there i think
16:07you're spot on ba there's been some back and forth trying to keep the game free flowing and physical
16:13the league's trying for the best of both worlds outside watson
16:20here's ellis the rebound by the bucks and that's a low percentage shot and i'm sure he knows it well
16:28you
16:28can't be forcing a shot like that you got to keep the ball moving get something better gotten eight
16:34of their first 10 to go great shooting here in the second quarter and the upcoming schedule for milwaukee
16:41on saturday they'll be matching up with anthony edwards and the minnesota timberwolves and then
16:46monday they'll take on christoph's porzingis and the atlanta hawks the road is never the highlight of your
16:52schedule for any team but for these guys it is a chance to go out there test them
16:58themselves and see how well they gel outside of home court it could be a very valuable experience
17:03bobby portis has checked in for milwaukee gary trent jr comes in for anthony and so timeout here by doc
17:10rivers coach probably just checking to make sure everybody's on the same page here
17:16and here are some of the best scorers in the league so far
17:39here's rollins oh a beautiful reverse layup rollins has got five great use of the screen that's how you
17:48practice it and draw it up here's mitchell and mitchell with the slam making sure of it with the
17:56two-hand slam ba yeah i don't blame him with the score this tight you cannot take a chance here
18:01i get the feeling guys that he may be sensing that this is a critical time in this game
18:07here's trent pass to rollins out to harris and it goes out of bounds last touch by harris and when
18:18it
18:19comes to steals they're in the top half of the league they don't miss many opportunities to get
18:24their hands on the ball and their low turnovers are a standout stat for them they make smart quick passes
18:30and do a good job protecting the ball from fast hands shooting an unreal 69 really special stuff
18:38here mitchell just outstanding he hits again and he's still a perfect nine for nine yeah exactly it
18:45sure is plenty of second opportunities eight of their last ten points from the paint but the defense
18:50still continues to back away and not show any aggressive can't blame him just trying to take
18:56what the defense allows here's achimura outside for mitchell over trent and there's mitchell on the
19:04assist from achimura achimura's got five assists in the game
19:12a minute 50 left in the first half oh it's stolen by achimura pass to ellis
19:20here's kata defended by portis kata no good the bucks trail by eight
19:28here's anadakumpo hits the close range jumper anadakumpo's got eight points in the quarter
19:34that pull-up shot is unguardable can't lay off janice even a second you get the sense janice anadakumpo
19:41is hungry to get another title card yeah i agree with you there i mean he's definitely in the prime
19:46of
19:46his career and would like to add another larry o'brien trophy to his um collection he is getting
19:53older but again i think he's still in his prime and he knows that while time is short another
19:59championship to set him apart from a lot of the greats
20:17there's 57 seconds left in the first half trent from long range his struggles continued here in the
20:24second period he simply can't get anything to fall
20:29prince the pass to ellis drops in the layup for two ellis has got his first points of the game
20:35wrong effort that time producing the best look possible and so it's anadakumpo with it he brings
20:41it up for milwaukee eight point game and ganas with the jam and you know ganas gets to the basket
20:48in a
20:49nanosecond he feels like nobody can stop it that's his third basket and five shots solid work well
20:57orchestrated and then the pass is right on the money the buck shooting at 44 percent on the second
21:03decent rate now five seconds separating the shot clock and the game clock corner shot is off
21:09gone one of two from deep in the second quarter in transition
21:14kata passed to achimura from deep mitchell it's hauled in by portis portis has got his eighth rebound
21:22here tonight fires away from way outside and we finished off one half a play leading by eight
21:30let's send it courtside and check in with ali la force ali what do you have thanks i'm here with
21:36doc
21:36rivers and coach i know you cannot be happy with this team's play in the first half what will you
21:41tell
21:41them they need to improve on the score and our effort our offense they're just playing harder
21:48they're more physical they're tougher honestly we're very lucky right now lots to improve on in the
21:53second half thanks coach all right good stuff ali and we'll get back to the action at the start of
21:59the
21:59third quarter
22:13welcome everyone as we dig into the details things working out so far they're moving well on offense
22:21great teamwork maybe not as strong as our teamwork but who's this how about your old lakers team what
22:27i remember seeing they pass the ball in the shack earning and it never comes back out that's why
22:32they call me the shack hole and we've got the playoff picture starting to come into focus now
22:40so let's take a look at the eastern conference taking a look at the visitors they've stayed in the
22:46mix a few people predict that they might regress clearly that hasn't been the case they continue to
22:51hum along it'll be interesting to see how they close out this year thanks for joining us time to
22:58head back over to the third quarter with brian anderson
23:15and if you just join it in one half is in the books one half to go it's been a
23:20clinic out there
23:21by janice on the cupo and in the first half he dominated in the post he got the looks he
23:27wanted
23:27and was able to execute you know what i think he's doing exactly what he has to do using his
23:32body
23:33shaking off contact and then finishing at the rim
23:44the bucks trail by eight janice plays the four with porter playing at center then there's gary trent
23:50then it's gary harris and it's rollins in at the one that's doc rivers five as we get into the
23:56second
23:59half a lot of the cupo left side oh janice dunks it home janice has tremendous physical attributes but
24:07his confidence is something that separates them from most it's prince on the wing that's to mitchell
24:16here's kata lets it go from the wing mitchell good mitchell's got 24 points
24:23setting each other up beautifully i love it eight of their last 10 points coming off assist you know
24:30nothing makes a coach happier than selflessness on the basketball court their defense just falls
24:36apart once the ball goes inside i tell you we're taking a look at some real deficiencies defensively
24:41i mean they've given up five straight good looks in the paint past to kata kachimura outside here's
24:49prince ellis ellis on the wing from outside the arc rebound milwaukee a lot of cupos got four rebounds
24:56now here's rollins again the bugs good for two excellent execution coming out of the break they've
25:05taken three shots and made three shots here's mitchell on the take and he just driving the stake in him
25:12there he's a guy just never lets up and that's terribly demoralizing for a defense guys i mean
25:18they know he's going to keep coming and coming and coming and that they may not have an answer for
25:25harris pass to portis kata pulls it in
25:33got two of three from the floor in this third quarter
25:37inside achimura pass to kata
25:41and here's ellis 20 feet out count that one ellis has got his second bucket on the night
25:47that is good offense unselfish play harris outside
25:54here's trent and the shot is good harris making the play unlike a lot of three-point shooters gary
26:00trent is not afraid of the mid range he doesn't shy away from that look you give it to him
26:05and he's
26:05going to take it and the visitors call time here
26:11all right quickly here let's look at the teams that lead the league in field goal percentage
26:15the smart offensive moves this team makes helps them open up the floor and find great looks
26:21that's how they've secured such an impressive shooting percentage
26:28just under two and a half minutes into this third quarter now
26:32here's mitchell here he goes good on the bucket mitchell's got 28 he relishes his role in this
26:40offense and he's a natural leader too here's rollins
26:47and then portis with the dunk
26:50hey i feel bad for those rims because portis has no mercy on him pulling it down with force
26:59here's mitchell misses from close range the bucks trail by six
27:06honor to kumpo the pass to portis and then portis with the dunk one of his specialties on display
27:13there a nifty lead pass gone four of six from the floor in this third quarter
27:18mitchell into the lane laid it in with a nice touch off the window
27:23mitchell's got eight points here in the quarter the offense is flowing through him right now he just keeps coming
27:31pass to rollins
27:38the shot no good nice d from ellis gotten five of seven attempts in the third quarter here's prince
27:46and he tries it off the glass but it's no good that one hurt point blank range you've got to
27:51capitalize
27:53and torian prince has played for a number of teams so far he's handled each experience like a total pro
27:59clark yeah that's the impression i get ba i mean he's somebody that welcomes every new opportunity in
28:04this league plays with a maturity and joy that helps any team he's just a basketball player understands
28:12his role and relishes that wherever he is he is certainly one of the few true franchise cornerstones
28:19in the league few guys can take over a game like the greek freak mitchell's shot is good he's been
28:27terrific offensively you can bet they'll feed him down the stretch that's for sure
28:35anadakumpo outside here's portis and a great assist by anadakumpo and that one goes in
28:43anadakumpo has got nine assists in the game great passing gotten six of ten shots to fall in this third
28:50quarter mitchell and he banks in the layup mitchell's got 34 points in the nba
28:57just can't let guys get to the rim and so time out here by doc rivers he's going to gather
29:02the
29:02troops and talk it over and grant for everything else he's accomplished yannis hasn't quite mastered
29:08the three-point shot and you know he hasn't had to ba you want him inside hitting on those high
29:14percentages shutting down the lane defensively and of course controlling the boards watson he's checked in
29:22for achimura
29:36here's rollins nine points in the game
29:42here's anadakumpo uses the glass on the layup anadakumpo has got 32 points in the game man
29:49that's now 10 straight points in the paint i'm not sure what's happened to their defense man i think
29:55they've really got to start committing more bodies down low and really kind of close that area off
29:59defensive he's a big reason why they're on top i imagine they'll keep feeding him i would anadakumpo the
30:06pass to trent dunks it hard with one hand wow he makes it look easy did you see that look
30:15at the
30:15elevation on that dunk ba man he just cocked it back and fired it down with one hand oh a
30:22nice way
30:23to punctuate that position this has been a close game in a lot of ways but they do have an
30:29edge on
30:29the board we've seen it time and time again in the game effort and determination on the glass
30:34can make up for a lot of other weaknesses
30:40and he makes it mitchell's got 14 points now in the second half
30:45the defense couldn't collapse quickly enough trend outside
30:53we've got 123 left in the third they get it again bollins gets the bucket and talk about imposing
31:01your will that's 10 straight points in the paint well constantly finding lanes to the basket getting
31:07great looks inside here's kato soft touch off the glass gate has got eight good passing to set that up
31:16teamwork on display
31:21portis outside
31:24pass to anadakumpo
31:27trend outside for the lead
31:30kata pulls it in defense dodged a bullet that time total breakdown
31:35watson passes to ellis here's kata
31:38the three from mitchell he buries it from three
31:43mitchell's got 39. well you could see it and feel it in his eyes at the start of this period
31:49he is on a mission
31:51harris passes to portis
31:53and the shot is good harris making the play tell you what portis has been so focused on the
31:59offensive end doing all he can to rack up points
32:04ellis on the wing pass to kata
32:08here's mitchell rebounded by the bucks
32:12poor defense for sure but the offense was worse
32:16harris outside
32:19sinks the tray
32:20seven points in the game and that is what we talk about make the next pass fantastic feed
32:26yannis anadakumpo has been on display for milwaukee he carried them back into this ball game
32:32it's all tied up to end the quarter all right stick around we'll be right back after this
32:48and let's take this opportunity to show you our state farm assist of the game
32:53and the winner today coming from an unlikely position it's the big fella with the sweetest
32:58pass of the day boy that's a nice asset to have it's a huge boost to any offense too
33:03it adds a whole nother dimension when you've got a big guy that can pass
33:09we've reached the fourth quarter in what has been a very competitive game should be an exciting
33:14finish they've got james rui hachimura is out there with peyton watson and it's gillespie
33:20in at the point guard position
33:23yannis to the cup and the big finish by yannis
33:26an absolute insane display of dribbling from antetokounmpo i mean you can't take this guy
33:33lightly when he's got the ball mad handles for a guy of any size but seven feet tall come on
33:40man
33:41that's ridiculous and there's james from the arc the rebound by sims
33:47well milwaukee's shooting very well 66 for the game and looking really strong
33:52yannis is a monster around the rim too easy there they've done a great job of moving the ball tonight
33:59yeah ba keeping everybody involved keeps everyone engaged james outside
34:07has to gillespie to the paint okay shot is good with a tough road ahead they worked hard to get
34:16a good
34:16shot and so porter will bring it up for the milwaukee bucks
34:24fires for three offensive rebound
34:29anadokounmpo can't connect gone two of three to open the fourth quarter watson tipped
34:37anthony the pass to anadokounmpo
34:40back to anthony launches the three
34:44and it's out of bounds the bucks able to retain possession here trent he's checking for milwaukee
34:52out of bounds
35:01here's porter and he lobs it up the steel
35:08james passes to watson out to james shoots
35:14fenny smith pulls it in there's no way that's the best look this offense can produce not at all
35:20i mean that's where they want him looking for a teammate not trying to do it on his own he
35:25needs to
35:25share the wealth there
35:27kata has to gillespie to the middle here's watson and that one is hammered home
35:33they're going at it on offense neither team backing down hey defense is taking a back burner
35:40secondary on the marquee but who doesn't love a game like this let's go i like offense and the
35:47basket by adekounmpo and you want him taking good shots at this point in the game and that one was
35:53easy
35:53well you don't want to give him any open shots at this stage never mind the layup come on now
35:58my
35:59goodness and the visitors call time here
36:04all right let's get a report from ali hey guys over that break i was able to catch the message
36:09that
36:09the visiting team coach was giving to his team he was very passionately telling his team don't give
36:15them an inch when they have the ball this game is going to come down to defense i need you
36:19guys to
36:19work hard and close this one out guys great work ali thanks
36:27gillespie passes to jane and the three off target you wonder what the score would be if they weren't
36:33controlling the glass oh man he got fancy with that finish he may be trying to provide the spark they
36:44need to break this one open and i like it i mean some coaches might want to see just
36:49a sure-handed lay in there but for me i don't mind a little extra
36:56out to anthony shoots from the elbow kata pulls it in kata's got nine rebounds now for him it has
37:05not
37:05been a game to remember but all they care about is that w and there's james from the arc
37:11rebounded by trent trent's got his fourth rebound in this one he's off his game right now trying to
37:17find a group porter's shot is off going oh for three here in the fourth here's watson oh he goes
37:25up
37:25high for the two-handed slam making sure of it with the two-hand slam ba yeah i don't blame
37:32him with the
37:32score this tight you cannot take a chance here i get the feeling guys that he may be sensing that
37:38this is a critical time in this game and doc rivers calls time out he is not messing around calling
37:44them into the huddle and some changes here for the bucks bobby portis has checked in for finney
37:51smith harris comes in for porter jr and it's rollins in for anthony
38:07and here's milwaukee now they've given up just eight points in the fourth now that's how you
38:13use the screen right there and it leads to a thunderous finish that was nice and you know not
38:19enough help from the defense there to compensate he gets a clean look and that's exactly how you draw
38:25it up a nice shot by mitchell and this is just typical of him always making an impact at crucial
38:32moments in the game you know they want the ball in his hands here because they trust him to hit
38:36all the big shots good an aggressive offensive player when harris has a bodily look inside
38:42he takes advantage of it gone five of eleven so far in the fourth ellis right side from the arc
38:50back rebound milwaukee hanakupo's got eight rebounds in the game
38:59harris outside
39:02nice move here's portis and the shot is good harris making the play harris has got three assists tonight
39:10i thought he might get caught between the pass and the shot but he makes a great adjustment
39:16gotten five of 12 shot attempts to go so far in the fourth quarter
39:23oh the long ball no good hitting the glass with purpose and aggression and guys you've seen it
39:30countless times in a close game hustle plays can really make the difference
39:37rebounded by anna kumpo milwaukee leading by four
39:47here's rollins from 10 feet out can't get it to go
39:57flushes it down with both hands oh that was nasty a two-hand mega slam man i don't think anyone
40:05was
40:05going to stop him there well guys i'm glad they didn't try because i don't want anybody to get hurt
40:11out there leading them right to the basket with a tremendous pass really good execution there
40:19for free the triple drop there you have it prince stepping up big time this guy played all four
40:27years in college and you see evidence of that confidence and maturity there here's portis
40:32jams at home there you go he's a monster at the rim so athletic obviously he plays on the attack
40:42no question about it he's very comfortable in the air dunk like that no problem for him yes sir count
40:49it
40:53milwaukee has gone oh for three here on the fourth
40:59here's rollins check by mitchell
41:05atchimura to take the lead yes sir with the three hey guys that's exactly why prince is out there in
41:13these moments big time shot
41:19here's rollins portis
41:22rebounded by mitchell give the defense credit there normally that's two points
41:32the ball here for the milwaukee bucks two point game portis it's been great to see guys who don't
41:39back down under pressure cool calm collected and confident in the biggest moment of the game yes
41:47and they've been moving the ball really well tonight good things come to those who take good shots
41:56mitchell yes sir make it in the layup and a timeout called here by doc rivers there is a lot
42:04on the
42:04line and he is determined to make sure everyone's on the same page what do you think coach will be
42:10drawing up here and there's enough time on the clock to go for a two for one
42:33here's
42:38here's rollins
42:39portis
42:45there's a four second difference between the shot and game clock
42:51now mitchell shoots it up oh can't hit the jumper
43:02here's portis
43:04oh a gorgeous feed he hammered it down and for them to get out in front it feels like they're
43:10going to need him to lead the way and the visitors call time here
43:20here
43:41Oh, money!
43:43That's how you draw it up.
43:45The defense just couldn't react in time.
43:47And a timeout called here by Doc Rivers.
43:50Critical moment here.
43:52He's not taking any chances.
43:54What's the best strategy for him?
43:56I would honestly attempt to get the ball near the rim.
43:59Because even if the shot doesn't fall, a quick putback will suffice.
44:15Trent!
44:16Trent!
44:18And so it's a victory for the road team in this one.
44:22And this was an emotional win for them.
44:24No doubt about it.
44:26Just a fantastic accomplishment.
44:28You love how they just diffuse the energy in this arena.
