Bucks head coach Doc Rivers: “It’s the way we started the game, and our turnovers. Those are the two things to me, the way we started defensively and then just our turnovers, and in the first half our fouls.” … “We played harder, more physical, and we played defense without fouling, but we still had bad turnovers in [the second] half.” … “We got to take care of the ball, we got to play defense without fouling.”
