When it comes to defeating the Toronto Raptors, it all comes down to physicality and setting the tempo, and the best way to assert that level of dominance is to outwork them on the glass.
Milwaukee has been stellar all season when it comes to rebounding, and it has translated into the postseason. With a playoff-leading 42.4 defensive rebounds per game, the Bucks have all but neutralized the opportunity for second chance points.
The Toronto Raptors, on the other hand, are one of the worst offensive rebounding teams in the league, averaging 7.8 offensive rebounds per game throughout the playoffs. If the Bucks continue to assert the rebounding prowess that they have in the past two rounds, this puts them on the right path to success.
