But sure, the Bucks aren't a great team.

Giannis is a monster, but someone from the Tatum, Hayward, Brown trio is going to have to shoulder the load to help cover him when Al needs a rest or we play small. I actually like Hayward for it as he is the strongest of all three and his minutes splits tend to complement when Horford is resting, but that role is going to be taxing on whoever gets it.

Beyond that, forget Bledsoe, the C's need an answer for Khris Middleton. He turns into George Gervin when he sees a green uniform for some reason.

Honestly, I rarely go at the refs, but they terrify me in this series. I'm just hoping this series isn't reduced to a free throw fest...

Keys to the Series for the Celtics.

Guarding Giannis. He is going to have his, he is too of a player. He is a star. It is all about making it tough for him.

Not allowing Giannis, and Khris to off at the same time.

Guard the three point line

Play Defense, and limit the turnovers. Don't try to do too much. As players and as a team. Focus on what you do best, and just do them.

And Score.

Just want to get something off my chest.

LMAO at Aaron Rodgers. People called you the GOAT once. I hope Rodgers is at these games. LMAO Packers.

Steal one in Bucks home court.
I don't think the Bucks can win in Boston.

I don't think Scary Terry would let us lose to the Bucks of all teams....like literally his thing with Bledsoe was borderline crazy last year.

But to be honest, I feel pretty good about the cast of veterans the Celtics have now moving forward since we officially have lost home court the rest of the playoffs lol. So many guys on this team who can take over a game from starters to the bench. They just have to keep trusting each other like they have since the playoffs started.

A lot of experience on this Celtics team as a whole. From last years squad, to Gordon and to having the guy who has started in a game 7 in the finals on the road with the game winning shot.

Yeah, they won their last game in Boston by 13, but sure. You guys are hilarious with the overconfidence. This is not the 17-18 Sixers team.

Oh well, you're free to think what you like. It will have no bearing on the outcome.

I see Milwaukee winning in this and 6 , maybe 5. Boston would have been a 5 seed if Victor oladipo stays healthy all year.

Return to Boston Celtics
