    Al Horford stood his ground as Giannis Antetokounmpo charged his way.

    Antetokounmpo, the Milwaukee Bucks' MVP candidate, desperately wanted to provide a spark and cut into a second-half lead against Horford's Boston Celtics in the opener of a second-round playoff series on Sunday. He drove hard into the lane, quickly switched directions and tried to lay the ball up over Horford, who met him at the rim and blocked the shot.

    Antetokounmpo corralled the ball and went up a second time only to be met by Horford again, who this time spiked the ball to the court.

    The Celtics clamped down on Antetokounmpo all game and cruised past the Bucks, 112-90.
