Bucks vs. Nets Game Info
Milwaukee Bucks (46-26, 20-16 Away) vs. Brooklyn Nets (48-24, 28-8 Home)
Date:Â Saturday, June 19, 2021
Time:Â 8:30 pm EST
Venue: Barclays Center – Brooklyn, NY
Coverage: TNT
The Bucks played a strong four quarters against the Nets in Game 6, shown by them not losing any quarter against them. Milwaukee continues to start games out quickly, thanks to Khris Middleton last time out. He finished with a game-high 38 points, shooting 5-of-8 from downtown. Giannis scored another 30 points, including 6-of-10 shooting from the free-throw line, which is pretty good for him lately. The team shot 45.1% overall, which is decent, but it was their 15 offensive rebounds that led to a dominating win.
The Nets will again be without Kyrie Irving today. James Harden was a bit more effective in Game 6, scoring 16 points, but he is still very clearly not 100%. This puts a ton of added pressure on Durant to have an unbelievable performance. He scored 32 points last game, which was nowhere near enough. Blake Griffin was the only other Brooklyn player to score in double-digits, finishing with only 12 points. Game 5 was successful because Durant was unstoppable and multiple role players put up great performances. Without an overall team effort, it will be tough for Brooklyn to move on.

Bucks vs. Nets Prediction
As stated above, the Nets cannot win by only Durant’s hand. It needs to be a team effort, with multiple players forcing the defense to respect them. On the other side, the Bucks have multiple players who can make plays for themselves and others, while being surrounded by shooters. They have the size to create extra possessions, as they did last game, and they can also clog the paint on defense.
It may take good coaching and in-game adjustments to pull off the victory, which is always a question mark, but the Bucks are built to win this series.
Prediction: Bucks +2 (BetMGM)
