After Action Report

The Bucks outlasted the Celtics 98-85. Bucks torched the Celtics on the offensive end. The Bucks carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Bucks' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Bucks locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Bucks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Bucks · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Bucks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
