Malik Beasley says Bucks will play Pacers in the playoffs: 'It's not going to be pretty'

After the Indiana Pacers beat the Milwaukee Bucks four out of five times this season, multiple members of the Bucks have spoken to the media about the Pacers.

Most recently, Bucks guard Malik Beasley told Bleacher Report's Chris Haynes that he thought the Pacers are unorthodox.

"Even the way Haliburton shoots, how he plays, it's not your average point guard," Beasley said. "He's 6-6 almost at the point guard position doing what he's doing. Then you got guys like Buddy Hield and T.J. McConnell. (McConnell) comes in and kills the game. It's honestly crazy how much of an impact he is."

Beasley said certain teams have Milwaukee's "number" at times.

"We're still trying to figure that out," Beasley said. "I know we're going to play them in the playoffs and boy, it's not going to be pretty. It's not going to be pretty for them."

Beasley said Milwaukee and Indiana could meet up in the first round on the playoffs in a 2-7 or 1-8 matchup.

"We're going to see," Beasley said.

Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo commented on the Pacers as well after the most recent defeat and said he thinks about the losses even in certain intimate moments.

"You think about it. When you go home and sleep and wake up, you think about it. When you go back and work out, you think about it. When you're about to get freaky at night, you think about it," he said. "But at the end of the day, it's good because it gives us time to fix things."
