After Action Report
The Bucks outlasted the Celtics 131-122. The Bucks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Bucks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Bucks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Bucks locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
