After Action Report
The Bucks edged the Celtics 109-103. The tempo dragged the Celtics into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Bucks carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Bucks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Bucks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Bucks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
