Did the Milwaukee Bucks really lead the NBA in 3-point percentage during the regular season?<br /><br />That team was nowhere to be found in the first half of their playoff series against the Indiana Pacers as the Bucks are getting blown out, 67-43.<br /><br />The Bucks are shooting an abysmal 12.5% from 3-point range, making just 2 of 16 from distance with Ryan Rollins and AJ Green making the lone threes.<br /><br />Different players<br /><br />Different coaches<br /><br />Bucks three point shooting veracity disappears in the playoffs<br /><br />No idea what we did to deserve this<br /><br />2/16 from three in first half https://t.co/DusQzpXuIY<br /><br />— Paul Henning (@brewcitypaul) April 19, 2025<br /><br />The Pacers, meanwhile, are shooting 7 of 17 on three-pointers. And the Pacers' offense is humming along and its quickness especially is also giving the Bucks fits and setting the pace outscoring Milwaukee by 14 fast-break points.<br /><br />Giannis Antetokounmpo is the only Bucks player in double figures with 19 points. But he's also missed six free throws in 11 attempts.<br /><br />The only good news, if there is any for the Bucks, is that Damian Lillard, one of the best three-point shooters in NBA history, is expected back in this series after being out with blood clots in his right calf for the last month.
