After logging heavy minutes in an overtime win over the Minnesota Timberwolves in the TD Garden the night before, the Celtics traveled to Milwaukee to face the Bucks, who had a two-day rest heading into the matchup.
Boston then got destroyed, 135-102.
From the jump, you could tell that this game was going to be tough. No one could have guessed it would be THIS tough, though.
Damian Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo traded buckets to start off a first-quarter blitz against a tired Celtics defense. Brook Lopez and Malik Beasley got in on the action, and everything was going in for Milwaukee early.
