After Action Report
In Milwaukee, the Celtics survived the Bucks 96-91. Ugly basketball, but the Celtics did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Celtics; Celtics' stars took over and bent the game to their will. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
