Recap: R(ebound) J(umper) Hunter shows up, does work.

The Celtics made it back to .500 with a convincing 99-83 win in Milwaukee against a Bucks team that is long on length and short on depth.

After spotting the Bucks the first 8 points and forcing Brad to call a “You guys do realize that this is an actual game, not a scrimmage?” timeout like he did on Friday against the Wizards, the Celtics outscored the Bucks by 8 the rest of the quarter and the first period ended where it began, with a tie score.

That was bad news for the Bucks, who really needed to make that early lead stick against a Celtics team that is much deeper than they are.
