Ugly end to the half, no need to double Dame?

Yup. Easiest predicted loss of the year. Get the bench experience.

The Bucks defense is just not good.

I’m not even mad, Celtics had a hard fought game last night, we knew this could happen.

Cs really still need Al for guys like Giannis and Embiid.

Really odd decision to bench him today instead of yesterday

Think we can still get back in this if we just start hitting a few 3s and making them work more for their shots.

Some awful D in that first

Emotional hangover from last night plus getting jobbed by the refs.

Let’s go Celtics!

Mazulla really is useless. He just watches the game. Make him buy a ticket.

No road games in the playoffs, so we’ll be fine

If we bench him yesterday we lose that game AND this game.

After last night's OT game, the Celtics look out of sync, lacking energy, with no legs, not enough hustle for 50/50 balls and I'd be surprised if they pull this one out.

Bucks brought tonight, and Celtics are not matching their energy, intensity and team sync.

Don't really want to hear the B2B scheduled loss excuse after what the Wolves had to go through yesterday. If you're not showing up, why suit up?

Outside of brissett, the rest of the team pretty well sucked that quarter. They look like they just played an overtime game last night, just low energy. Seems like a schedule oss.

Adrian Griffin lives to see another day lol.

Called it. Boston playing like they don’t care tonight. Otherwise they would have saved Giannis-kryptonite Al Horford for tonight.
