The Milwaukee Bucks and Indiana Pacers are set to face off in a closely watched series on January 1st and 3rd. This season has seen the two teams meet on numerous occasions, with a total of 37 games played between them. The Pacers are looking to capitalize on this momentum and aim for a sweep in the back-to-back games against the Bucks. A key tactical point in these matchups is the Pacers' strategy of doubling Giannis Antetokounmpo in the post, which is expected to influence the Bucks' offensive approach. The intensity of the rivalry and the tactical nuances have led to calls for a playoff series between the Bucks and Pacers.
