Game 1 was an embarrassment for Milwaukee. Game 2 was a disaster for Boston. Game 3 figures to snap both teams back towards the middle, as the Milwaukee Bucks and Boston Celtics clash to assume control of the second round NBA Playoffs series.
Bucks Update
If the Bucks want to take over this series, they’ll need to repeat what they did in Game 2. The defense roared to life in the third quarter (which Milwaukee won 39-18) and put Boston in the clamps, forcing 13 turnovers on the game. This figure is unimpressive when compared to Boston’s regular season average, but the Bucks had long struggled to make the Celtics cough up the ball during the regular season.
