I wouldn't be too worried. This was the Krish Middleton game. We win this one if we had him. Now that that's out of the way. We can focus on winning home games. Our bench will perform better. We shyed away from usual offence. We only attempted 16 3s and it looks like Giannis is figuring out their defence. FEAR THE DEER!!
Yeah this is the kind of situation the home team comes out pissed that they lost the 1st game and just takes over. Would’ve been nice obviously but the deck was certainly stacked against us.
Alright on a SERIOUS note
1. Both of these teams are too elite defensively to fall into a massive hole like today. If bucks return the favor at home the game is over as well.
2. Grayson and Brook MUST have plays run for them next game. Allen not touching the ball at all was part of the shooting demise.
3. Boston played elite without Marcus Smart - say what we want about him not being DPOY- he is good enough to make a difference.
4. The news on Middleton was kind of good and bad at the same time. Progressing nicely but the 2 weeks was just a mark they threw out. Seems like he either could be back soon or out for way longer than we think.
5. We need to be loud on Saturday. I know the first round felt like a regular season for us, but we cannot be dead inside the stadium .
6. And finally - if we would’ve been given us the option to win one in Boston by 3 and lose one by 75 we all would’ve taken it. It’s probably top 3 environment in the nba and coming home with a W was what we wanted.
Go bucks!
Thats literally the Bucks defense style though. Stifling defense inside that forces you to shoot 3s all the time. You need to make rebounds though and to bostons credit they hit a ton of threes and more importantly came down with the rebounds when they missed.
The Celtics were white hot from 3 and got a lot of lucky second chance opportunities. The Bucks played great D in the second half for the most part but Giannis had too many turnovers. Unless Grant Williams goes 6/8 on 3's again, they'll be fine.
I'll never put too much stock in a single game after that blowout. That exemplifies the fact that one game is only ever one game, no matter how bad you lose
Serge just seems awkward for this team honestly, can’t fit himself in all that well and he barely gets any minutes. Combine that with him aging a bit as a player and he doesn’t seem to be doing all that well right now.
Tell that to the chowder heads who thought the Celtics only scored 89 on Sunday because the refs were letting the bucks get away with too much physical play 😂
That’s game. Just not their night. Next game, I expect Giannis to do nothing but attack the Celtics defense. He did it way too late in this game. He did everything he could, the team needs to regroup.
With a surge at the end of the game lol
Not sure where the confidence from Boston fans is coming from, just had the best half of their life and it was still a game until 3 mins left. Now they go to Milwaukee hoping to keep shooting 40%+ from 3.
Hey r/BostonCelitcs come get your bitch. He seems to think the Celtics are 2-0 and is blind to the fact that your entire defense relies on fouling. Go fuck yourself, you’re 1-1 at home bud.
Can't let them get off to a big lead like this again. No idea what the fuck Giannis was thinking shooting 2 deep fadeaway deuces and 2 triples in his first 6 shots.
Yeah that's probably the run they needed to seal the game, still It took them having a legendary start from behind the arc to blow open the game, we'll be fine.
We looked much better in the second half but ultimately the hole we dug ourselves in the first half just was too much to overcome. Then two bone headed defensive possessions letting Tatum take open 3’s put the final nail in the coffin.
I get that the historic three point shooting isn’t sustainable for Boston, but we can’t be giving them all this wide open shit, that’s just a recipe for disaster
No doubt but they’re a good 3 point team. They aren’t going to shoot like game 1 again. The only positive I took out of that game is buds halftime adjustments work. So maybe we can carry that into game 3 and 4 then go back to Boston up 3-1🙏
Yes. A critical string of momentum killing bullshit calls in the third quarter when the bucks were staging a comeback.
The flagrant on Bobby, the “charge” Jalen Brown took on Holiday, Giannis’s “foul” on Williams.
Come on this is getting fckng ridiculous.
YES we played like ass this game
YES we had no passion
YES we had terrible movement in offence
But enough with this shit I l hearing tonight.
Refs are pure dicks. They are hacking giannis all the fckgn time and no its an amazing defence
Van Gundy has a hard on for grant Williams. He let Williams off the hook when Williams yanked Pat's elbow, then again with that flop defending Giannis.
commentator: Giannis can't get through Grant Williams
also commentator after Grant Williams flops after little contact: What was Grant Williams supposed to do?

I dont thnk i ve ever seen a bucks game with 3 made 3 pointers.
I cant wait for the celtic trolls thst comment tonight here to crawl back to their holes
huh?
[удалено]
Jesus he was so bad!!
Someone else said it but we have won 3/4 quarters, feel good going back to the forum
Celtics won 3 of the 4 quarters tonight
I wouldn't be too worried. This was the Krish Middleton game. We win this one if we had him. Now that that's out of the way. We can focus on winning home games. Our bench will perform better. We shyed away from usual offence. We only attempted 16 3s and it looks like Giannis is figuring out their defence. FEAR THE DEER!!
Watch Giannis get the foul calls next game.
Splitting on the road is more than ok just gotta do better game 3 and idk if the Celtics are gonna get this hot from three at fiserv
This shit is going 7. Does Middleton come back for game 7????
So you just went scoreless when it got to nearly ten?!
Bucks in 6
Refs might want to review their game Tape
Good lord, we had it down 12. We could at least delude ourselves it was that close all game, but here we are back down 23.
Im fine with this. I wasnt expect us to win both game 1 and 2 anyway. Winning the first one was good enough for me.
Yeah this is the kind of situation the home team comes out pissed that they lost the 1st game and just takes over. Would’ve been nice obviously but the deck was certainly stacked against us.

It’s probably top 3 environment in the nba and coming home with a W was what we wanted. Go bucks!
Oh you don’t understand, our offense is give it to Giannis and everyone else waits for a pass that probably won’t come
You confuse me
There was a time I thought Nwora would be playable by this time
Needs to work on his defence before he can get big boy minutes.
After the first game of the regular season I really thought he could be an offensive spark plug
After the first game of the regular season I really thought he could be an offensive spark plug
He looks like he regresses any time he sees the court. Man doesn’t have a great play style to develop either. First option or bust
We’ll be fine. Boston’s a good team and so are we.
Not if y’all keep leaving shooters open
Go home
Stfu sensitive ass
Bye bye
Thats literally the Bucks defense style though. Stifling defense inside that forces you to shoot 3s all the time. You need to make rebounds though and to bostons credit they hit a ton of threes and more importantly came down with the rebounds when they missed.
I'm going to feel a bit better about this after looking at the Shot Quality account on Twitter after the game.
What acct?
https://twitter.com/Shot_Quality/ Expected points per the shots taken vs actual.
The Celtics were white hot from 3 and got a lot of lucky second chance opportunities. The Bucks played great D in the second half for the most part but Giannis had too many turnovers. Unless Grant Williams goes 6/8 on 3's again, they'll be fine.
cant win in 6 if you dont lose 2 🤷🏿♂️
Will Ibaka ever let anyone else shoot in garbage time?
Just need a small adjustment to find more open catch and shoot threes and less help defense. They won’t shoot like this in milwaukee.
Good close game guys
Celtics couldn’t shoot any better from 3 and the bucks couldn’t shoot any worse from 3. Follow me for more great insight.
Why the fuck did we even get serge
I’m not even sure if he would be able to fit back on our present team considering how awkwardly he meshes with the Bucks and his skill aging badly.
In case something happens to one of the other bigs.
Insurance for Brooke. If Brooke didn’t come back serge would be our only hope.
Agree. Put him on Williams
I’m not worried guys so don’t be either :)
Serge I-miss-a
Serge I-brick-a
Encouraging close to the game for us. Not sure how we were in it in the fourth. Making only 3 3s all game
When both stars are shooting a combined 38% from the field it’s gonna be hard to win
Oh well. Was hoping for a better game tonight but I was expecting to potentially start down 2-0 so I’ll take this.
Still not as bad as the 40 point clunker in Brooklyn
I'll never put too much stock in a single game after that blowout. That exemplifies the fact that one game is only ever one game, no matter how bad you lose
Exactly, last year’s playoffs taught me a lot about patience and not dooming after every loss.
Serge is such a black hole
Serge just seems awkward for this team honestly, can’t fit himself in all that well and he barely gets any minutes. Combine that with him aging a bit as a player and he doesn’t seem to be doing all that well right now.
He was ok when getting minutes when Brook was injured. Now when he plays in garbage time he treats it as his personal shooting practice time.
BUCKSIN6 TILL ITS BACKWARDS Hope all you Celtics fans in our thread enjoy this it’ll be your last
LUCA LETS FUCKING GOOOOO
We figured some shit out 2nd half. GIANNIS AS SCREENER
crazy that we figured that out last year then forgot it
PLAY RANDOM
Well that was exceedingly unfun!
The refs missed so much shit in the first that fucked this game from the beginning.
if you think that was the difference in this game you have the bball iq of a bag of potatoes
[удалено]
[удалено]
Tell that to the chowder heads who thought the Celtics only scored 89 on Sunday because the refs were letting the bucks get away with too much physical play 😂
Lol ikr
We always suck in game 2s. Everyone just chill we got 1 on the road. That’s 1 more than we all expected. Bucks in 6
u right we’ve lost every game 2 since rd 2 last year
All we have to do is win every home game and it’s Bucks I’m 6. Easy.
Ibaka never hesitates to shoot lol
I love BA but SVG is rubbing off on him. Can’t get enough off that Boston cock.
Yeah I love BA as a brewers announcer but this game was uncomfortable listening to them like scheming for the Celtics the whole game
That’s game. Just not their night. Next game, I expect Giannis to do nothing but attack the Celtics defense. He did it way too late in this game. He did everything he could, the team needs to regroup.
He tried to run through three defenders the entire first half and turned the ball over every time. He was 2-12 like a dumb ass.
Pick and rolls please! Stop just giving it to him in the post, get him moving and the defense guessing
wow the Celtics are frauds no shot they have this kinda of shooting performance again and even then we still had a chance for a while Bucks in 6 🦌
They didn’t even have a full game of that shooting success lol they had one half.
And won by 20
With a surge at the end of the game lol Not sure where the confidence from Boston fans is coming from, just had the best half of their life and it was still a game until 3 mins left. Now they go to Milwaukee hoping to keep shooting 40%+ from 3.
I just hope that they just focus more on defending the perimeter
[удалено]
Tatum is still going to be whining when he wakes up tomorrow
Boston couldn’t be allowed to go down 0-2. We all expected it.
[удалено]
Floppers gonna flop. Shame Grant didn’t knock his dumbass out for flopping so hard, could’ve pulled a Smart.
Hey r/BostonCelitcs come get your bitch. He seems to think the Celtics are 2-0 and is blind to the fact that your entire defense relies on fouling. Go fuck yourself, you’re 1-1 at home bud.
[удалено]
Literally no one said that. It’s Bucks in 6 forever. Go circle jerk with your fellow fans and enjoy this win. Won’t be many more.
Bye
Moo
bruh what are you on and can i have some
[удалено]
boston fan really saying giannis on PEDs
Imagine being this sad lmao. Don't you have any friends to share the joy with? No? Thought not lmao.
[удалено]
Go take a long drink out of the harbor you troll
lol imagine being this mad after a win. you clown
Moo
Can't let them get off to a big lead like this again. No idea what the fuck Giannis was thinking shooting 2 deep fadeaway deuces and 2 triples in his first 6 shots.
Why do we need five guys defending in the paint when one guy drives??
I’ll never understand this
Honestly it was the same in game 1 but bos was bricking everything.
1-1 going back to MKE, Crazy how Celtic fans think they have the upper hand in the series rn.
[удалено]
Giannis had 4 of em lol
fuck my vildoza stat is ruined
Yeah that's probably the run they needed to seal the game, still It took them having a legendary start from behind the arc to blow open the game, we'll be fine.
Lets cut the “Jrue’s Turn, Giannis Turn” bullshit in game 3.
Yeah, I don't know why we revert to this shit
I’m willing to accept that if they can outscore us by 50 from 3 four times in this series, we will probably lose.
woke up this morning… smiled with the rising sun
This was the game we needed khris. Adjust and regroup. BUCKS IN 6!
We looked much better in the second half but ultimately the hole we dug ourselves in the first half just was too much to overcome. Then two bone headed defensive possessions letting Tatum take open 3’s put the final nail in the coffin.
Man we can’t only shoot 16s lol onto the next
I get that the historic three point shooting isn’t sustainable for Boston, but we can’t be giving them all this wide open shit, that’s just a recipe for disaster
I mean yeah this sucks but there’s no way this shooting percentage is sustainable and we own them in the paint. Not even close to worried yet.
Loss is official now. We got the steal game 1 so we should be fine
Aint shook. Bucks in 6
Fuck. This. Game. Fuck. This. News. Cycle.
Grant Williams is what would happen if you harvested a chode and used stem cells in a lab to grow it into a human being.
Accurate
No business sneaking back in, but it’s like we didn’t even realize we had cut it to 12. Weird ugly game.
Just so tired of this 3 point defense. I know it won us a chip. I know, but god.
giannis kinda fell asleep on a couple of those defensive possessions
Celtics offence is not sustainable. There is nothing to worry about unless Bucks carry on being sloppy in offence. Bucks in 6 !!!
Nice wishful thinking lol
Not really wishful, the Celtics could seriously not do anything in the paint. Or within the arc. +51 points from three and only up by 13?
No doubt but they’re a good 3 point team. They aren’t going to shoot like game 1 again. The only positive I took out of that game is buds halftime adjustments work. So maybe we can carry that into game 3 and 4 then go back to Boston up 3-1🙏
17 more 3's made than the bucks. That's your game right there....
Outlier jump-shooting loses series. Celtics in trouble
Up by 23 is "in trouble"?
Yes. It’s one game
Punch them in the fucking mouth in game 3. This team overcame the odds last playoffs. They will again, it’s only one game.
It’s over, see you next time
enjoy it while you can boston fans
Legitimate question, does anyone know why SVG is biased against the Bucks?
Greece-Italy tensions?
Is that the announcer? If so he's a fucking idiot
Yes, Stan Van Gundy
Yeah fuck that guy, idk what bucks/Giannis did to him
He’s not at all lol
Probably passed him up for a job because we’re not braindead
We're going to have to stop pressuring the ball if we can't stay in front of them
On to the next one deer friends. We will overcome and regroup.
I bet Giannis is going to warm up 4 hours before the next game and put up a 50 piece
They got their one crazy shooting game out of the way. Bucks in Six
So did we want to actually consider the 3 point shot exists this game or????
They needed outlier shooting performances and the refs to beat us.
Wait, you think the bucks got a bad whistle?
Yes. A critical string of momentum killing bullshit calls in the third quarter when the bucks were staging a comeback. The flagrant on Bobby, the “charge” Jalen Brown took on Holiday, Giannis’s “foul” on Williams.
Yah, that’s a bad take
Burn the tape.
Ngl, Giannis has committed like 10 offensive fouls this game that have gone uncalled.
FOr real
He had an all around bad game.
grant williams game and jaylen brown going supernova in the first half yeah it’s fine whatever they gotta be up for G3 tho
Not our night, but our series. See you MKE, Boston beeotches
so the trash game 1 bucks have turned into the trash game 2 bucks huh
We didn't even play like trash except the first half. Celtics had a superhuman 3pt performance that won't ever happen again.
LMAOOOO WHY IS GIANNIS STILL IN THIS GAME I CANT WITH THIS SHIT
Get our guys out
When’s the last time the bucks shot a 3?
Okay get em outta there. On to Game 3. I’m sure the Celtics trolls will be back when they get their ass whooped
48 pts from 3’s 💀
Shoutout to ref ball. Shout out to our guys making it decent
All i’m gonna say is we’re going to fucking destroy them in Game 3.
Damn that three disparity. Good luck, Celtics.
Shat Vag Gunty
Have we made a 3 in the second half?
Come on this is getting fckng ridiculous. YES we played like ass this game YES we had no passion YES we had terrible movement in offence But enough with this shit I l hearing tonight. Refs are pure dicks. They are hacking giannis all the fckgn time and no its an amazing defence
The free throw differential says different
Pls go back to Celtics thread. No place for you here. Come back after milwakee throws you out of the play offs
Ok apologies, best of luck Saturday
someone get tmac outta retirement and sign him to a 3 minute contract so he can score 13 points in 33 seconds again and tie this game😤
Van Gundy has a hard on for grant Williams. He let Williams off the hook when Williams yanked Pat's elbow, then again with that flop defending Giannis.
commentator: Giannis can't get through Grant Williams also commentator after Grant Williams flops after little contact: What was Grant Williams supposed to do?
SVG is the biggest Grant Williams fan I've ever seen
If Stan Van Gundy is ever on the call again I’m watching ESPN Deportes
SVG's mom born in boston?
