Details and Personal Analysis

Milwaukee's approach to the game was excellent despite Trail Blazers' ability to react, and the Bucks' great defence and offensive kept them in the lead.

I could see interesting aspects from the Blazers in the second game by Carmelo Anthony after his return to the league, he is in good shape and although his team was defeated he could contribute with 18 Pts. 7 Reb. 4 Ast. Numbers that don't look bad for their second duel, another who raised his face for the Blazers was the young prospect Skal Labissiere who made a modest but significant contribution to their progress.

The Bucks had the biggest contribution in Bledsoe and Antetokounmpo being their attacking faces, in a duel in which these initial players were decisive but evidently, it was a great collective work for a solid victory of Milwaukee over Portland.
