After Action Report

In Boston, the Bucks pulled away from the Celtics 116-101. The tempo dragged the Celtics into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Bucks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Bucks looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Bucks bench chemistry carried them. Bucks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Bucks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bucks · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Bucks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
