Sam Merrill in with the starters to start the 2nd and immediately hits a 3.
Bucks need to hit another gear here... seems like theyâre kinda toying with them right now...
Feels like they should be ahead by a lot more
Starting to separate now- Middleton on ðĨðĨðĨ
Middleton is a good player against everyone, but he seems to turn into Larry Bird against the Celtics.
Middleton literally can't be stopped - Lopez takes 3 shots in a row.
Holiday just outphysicalled Marcus Smart like he was Kemba Walker
Up 11 at the half. Bucks put up 70 with Giannis only playing 14 minutes and scoring 4 points.
Got to 15 but they kinda fumbled and stumbled that last minute. Lucky Boston couldnât throw it in the ocean those last few minutes.

Heâs been so good the last week... like heâs sending a message. Ratcheting things up about the right time.
Lopez just doesnât have a sense of things sometimes... Middleton is lighting them up and in the 2-man he decides to shoot the ball as soon as he touched it. Frustrating...
Missed the 1st half, but the score looks good. Giannis doing some facilitating?
This looks like a totally different Bucks team than 1 month ago.
Brown hip-checked Giannis... no call.

Holidayâs return is a big part of it. But when Giannis is playing at an MVP level with better cast around him theyâre going to be rolling. Theyâre playing an easy portion of the schedule, though, too...
The Celtics are playing like they know something is going to happen at the trade deadline.
Of course, Ainge might be the worst GM in the league over the last 3 years. The past two offseasons they've lost Horford, Irving, and Hayward and replaced them with Kemba Walker and a trade exemption.
Good timeout by Budenholzer- offense getting a little loose and the Celtics are trying to shoot themselves back into this.
Got up 25 and then have lost focus and given up a 7-0 run and then another turnover.
Really bad stretch
13-3 Celtic run on a lot of turnovers.
Bucks really sloppy. Like they're too comfortable with their lead.
Fucking terrible. Three offensive rebounds with no Bucks effort at all to go after it. Only a 12 point lead.
Celtics are shoving and bumping guys in the paint... no fouls? 3 offensive rebounds with guys literally getting shoved out of the way...
PJ Tucker just stoned Jason Tatum. Holiday and Tucker are two of the toughest pound-for-pound players on defense I've ever seen.
Really dumb challenge by Stevens.
Poor offensive execution by Giannis there to end it.
Giannis had the ball at the rim to start the 4th and passed it out?
Really questionable shot selection the last few minutes.
Marcus Smart gets more calls than Giannis.
So Marcus Smart can flop and get calls and Giannis manhandled in the post and can't get one?
Middleton's arms are scratched - no call.
29-15 run by the Celtics.
Middleton saving the Bucks......
Down to 8.
Way too many easy 3 point shots.
Middleton... on... ðĨðĨðĨ
Well, they got the lead because Boston was missing shots. Now theyâre making them. Gotta finish- canât be predictable on offense de. Execute...
42-25 Celtics over the last 14 minutes.
As good as Holiday was two nights ago, he's struggled tonight
DDV with a big 3.
