Milwaukee beats the Raptors fairly easily down the stretch after being down 12 in the first half.

Milwaukee played better and is the better team.    But I have to try to rationalize this as best as possible to still think we have some small level of optimism if we make the ECF..
- Serge Ibaka had by far his worst game of the season, and it really wasn't the bucks.   Seemed like he was trying to play through being sick.   It will help when Gasol comes back.
- Gasol and Powell are still injured.
- Lowry can't be any more off then he was... and big part of that was certainly the Bucks D.  He could not out guile them.
- Deeper bench players were good.

And while it's all relative, it was a positive that we [I]"contained"[/I] Giannis to a certain degree and he shied at times from trying to score.    still goes for 18/19/8 which still shows his overall dominance.  The 3 best players on the Bucks just played way better than the Raps top 4.
