Bucks face challenges from Pistons and Pacers

The Milwaukee Bucks are competing for home-court advantage in the Eastern Conference playoffs, currently sitting fourth, just ahead of the Detroit Pistons and Indiana Pacers. The Bucks face challenges despite having star player Giannis Antetokounmpo. The Pistons have a stronger defense, ranking tenth in the league, which could hinder the Bucks' scoring. Cade Cunningham's ability to defend against Damian Lillard and the Pistons' size may pose problems for Giannis. The Pacers have a deeper bench, which could exhaust the Bucks' starters. Indiana's second unit, featuring players like TJ McConnell, may control the game's pace better than Milwaukee's, potentially impacting the outcome in a playoff series.
