Milwaukee, Wisconsin – The Milwaukee Bucks are definitely back in the thick of things after beating the Brooklyn Nets in game four of the Eastern Conference semifinals on Sunday.

Giannis Antetokounmpo (25) was in the driver’s seat, leading the Bucks to a big win over the Nets 107-96, to tie up the series 2-2. It's now all up for grabs as both teams have won their respective games on their own court.

The scales might have also balanced out even more now that Brooklyn has lost another one of their three superstars: Kyrie Irving is hobbled up with a serious-looking ankle injury. He was taken out of the game after coming down hard on his right ankle during the second quarter, leaving Kevin Durant to carry much of the offensive load. Durant did his part with 28 points, but no one else apart from him and Irving could even score in double-figures.

"I have no idea what is going to happen with [Irving] in the coming days," said Nets Head Coach Steve Nash to ESPN reporters. Considering Irving never returned to the game after sustaining his injury, his ankle might keep him out of more than just the next game. This could make things finally difficult for the Nets in terms of advancing to the next round.

As far as the Bucks are concerned, their offense was back in business after the low-scoring affair in game three. It would seem likely that Milwaukee has all the momentum going forward to possibly take the series for themselves.

Giannis had a big game, leading all scorers with 34 points and 12 rebounds, while Khris Middleton added 19 points.

Kevin Durant is at the helm for the Nets, but all of his star power won’t be enough for Brooklyn to advance while both Irving and James Harden are out. Blake Griffin, who’s been an All-Star during his career and is currently part of the Nets’ starting five, should be able to answer the call, though he only managed to score eight points in Game 4. Fellow starters Joe Harris and Bruce Brown also need to do better than their combined 15 points next time around.

Eight players off of Brooklyn’s bench did score at least a few points, but they also need to produce more to keep the Nets from losing any more control in this series.

Game 5 is back in Brooklyn with the series lead back up for grabs, on Tuesday night.
