After Action Report
The Bucks outlasted the Celtics 135-121. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Bucks cashed in. The Bucks came in with something to prove after a loss; Bucks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Bucks bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Celtics utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Bucks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Bucks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
