Watch: Damian Lillard lights it up before halftime again

It wasn't quite the flamethrower of a first half Lillard had in Game 1, when he scored 35 points and sank six three-pointers, driving Milwaukee to a 27-point halftime lead. Indiana only scored 42 points as a team, seven more than Lillard had by himself.

The difference in Game 2 was that Lillard's fireworks only kept the Bucks close. Milwaukee went into halftime trailing by five points this time, thanks to a hot first half by Indiana's Pascal Siakam. He hasn't been as prolific as Lillard, who has 61 first-half points in two games, but Siakam had 21 points at the half, after 19 in the first half of Game 1.

Milwaukee's going to need Lillard to produce more than he did in Sunday's second half, when he went scoreless in 19 minutes. He only gave out a lone assist after halftime, but Milwaukee's lead was too much to overcome. Without Giannis Antetokounmpo, the points have to come from Lillard, or no one at all.
