Bucks Steal Game 1 in Sixers' Home
Bucks Vs 76ErsTitle: The Heist at the Wells Fargo Center: How the Bucks Stole Game 1
Opening Scene: A Quiet Night in Philadelphia
April 20, 2024. The Wells Fargo Center hums with tension. The Philadelphia 76ers, led by MVP candidate Joel Embiid and sharpshooter Tyrese Maxey, are heavy favorites in Game 1 of their playoff series against the Milwaukee Bucks. The city is electric—fans smell blood. The Bucks, missing Giannis Antetokounmpo (out with a calf strain), are supposed to be easy prey.
But by the end of the night, the Sixers would be left scrambling, wondering how a team without its best player pulled off a daylight robbery on their home floor.
The Mastermind: Doc Rivers’ Calculated Gamble
The Bucks’ head coach, Doc Rivers—a man with a reputation for both playoff brilliance and collapses—had a plan. Without Giannis, he turned to his two remaining stars: Damian Lillard and Khris Middleton. But this wasn’t just about offense. Rivers knew the Sixers’ weakness—their late-game execution.
'We just had to stay close,' Rivers would say later. 'Steal it at the end.'
And that’s exactly what they did.
The Getaway Driver: Damian Lillard’s Fourth Quarter
For three quarters, the game was a grind. The Sixers led by as many as 12, but Milwaukee chipped away. Then, with 5:34 left, Lillard went into full 'Dame Time' mode.
A deep three over Embiid’s outstretched arm.
A step-back dagger in Maxey’s face.
A cold-blooded and-one through contact.
In just 90 seconds, Lillard scored 11 straight points, flipping a 4-point deficit into a 7-point lead. The Sixers never recovered.
'That’s what he does,' a frustrated Nick Nurse said postgame. 'We knew it was coming. We just couldn’t stop it.'
The Inside Job: Embiid’s Late-Game Struggles
Joel Embiid finished with 32 points, but when it mattered most, he vanished.
Missed free throws down the stretch.
A costly turnover with 1:12 left.
Zero field goals in the final 4 minutes.
The Bucks’ defense, led by Brook Lopez and Bobby Portis, made every shot a war. Embiid, still not 100% after his knee injury, looked gassed.
'We just didn’t execute,' Embiid muttered postgame, avoiding eye contact.
The Silent Partner: Khris Middleton’s Clutch Plays
While Lillard stole the headlines, Middleton was the perfect accomplice.
A contested mid-range jumper to silence a Sixers run.
A steal on Maxey with 30 seconds left.
Two free throws to ice the game.
'Khris is a killer,' Lillard said afterward. 'People forget because he’s quiet, but he’s cold.'
The Aftermath: A City in Shock
Final Score: Bucks 109, Sixers 105
The Sixers’ locker room was dead silent. Nick Nurse stared at the stat sheet, shaking his head. The Bucks, meanwhile, celebrated like bandits who just pulled off the perfect crime.
'Nobody believed in us tonight,' Lillard said, smirking. 'But we knew.'
And just like that, Milwaukee stole home-court advantage.
The Big Question: Was This a Fluke… Or a Trend?
The Sixers still have the talent to win the series. But if Game 1 proved anything, it’s this:
Never count out Damian Lillard in the playoffs.
And if Giannis comes back?
Then this heist might just turn into a full-blown robbery.
Case Status: Open.
Next Game: Will the Sixers Respond… Or Will the Bucks Go Up 2-0?
