After Action Report
The Bucks squeaked past the Celtics 100-98. The Celtics couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Bucks. The Bucks carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Bucks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. 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.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- 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.
