Milwaukee got past the Eastern Conference First Round by dominating Indiana 4-0 after beating Indiana in close 100-92 game. For much of the game, it looked like Indiana would be able to pull off the win, thanks in large part to an outstanding performance by Cato. But the tide finally turned in the end, with Milwaukee star Ott leading his team to victory.

"Definitely a great game," said Milwaukee coach Bob after the game. "The fans got their money's worth out of it, and both teams put up a good fight. We're just glad that we were able to finish strong and get the W. Ott was a big part of that, and I don't think we'd have won without his efforts."

Milwaukee was led by Ott (27 points, a block), Reese (21 points, 0 assists, a steal), Banks (11 points, 6 boards, 3 assists, 2 steals). Indiana was led by Cato (29 points, 2 assists, 2 steals), Henderson (16 points, 7 boards, 1 assists, 2 blocks), Williams (17 points).
