The one game Boston won back in early November, we had an absurd 45-point advantage from beyond the arc and won by only four points. The second game which the Bucks won by 13, Celtics were missing both Baynes and Horford (we're hard-pressed to win any game against the really good teams without a healthy Horford IMO). Our third meeting is closer to what I imagine these games would be (replace Smart w/ Hayward) -- a defense-oriented slugfest that may come down to the final few possessions unless one team goes berserk from three or has a huge advantage from the FT line. We had to play 10 combined minutes of Theis & Yabu due to Baynes's absence. I expect more out of Middleton (15 pts), Bledsoe (5 pts), and Giannis (30 pts) but Brogdon's all-around production will be missed during the 1st two games of the series. Horford is the most vital piece for the Cs. When he has his legs under him, he can cause matchup problems on the offensive end while being able to somewhat contain Freak's drives and switch on Bucks guards if need be.

Bud (who knows Horford's game as well as any coach) vs. Brad is gonna be an interesting side-plot to this series.

Severely underrated aspect of this series. Great point

It's going to be interesting to see how Bud plays D on Kyrie. During the regular season, he usually has Smart's man leave Smart to double and trap Kyrie. They won't be able to do that with Brown. When Smart does return, and especially if Bud believes he may not be 100% when he does, you'll definitely see the Bucks go back to doing that. If they still try it with Brown, he could be key in these games without Smart.

How upset Bledsoe got about the Drew/Eric slipup by Terry is still the best thing about that series. Hopefully he's still mad about it and throws him off :lol:

Agreed. Even in an overmatch, the first game is usually close - see Orlando and Nets in round 1.

Personally, I think the loss of Brogdon is a huge deal for Bucks whereas there is no drop off from Smart to Brown for C’s. Not only is Brogdon clutch and a Celtic killer, but he had a 50-40-90% season as a shooter which has only been accomplished by hall of famers like Nash, Curry, Bird etc. They are not a dominant team without him....still should be favorites but ...
