grayson allen uncontested layup and connaughton blocking your shot… not pretty

Yeah 10 point lead despite missing like 3 layups….love to see it

Wes Matthews really filling the PJ Tucker role nicely

he’s been so good

can't believe he's still around and contributing tbh!

Celtics seem to be bottling up Giannis pretty well and if they can draw charges by flopping it’s gonna be a long night for him. Seems like the kind of game where they could really use someone like Middleton cuz they’ve had open guys from 3

absolutely incredible d on giannis

brown really makes some bad decisions sometimes

i don’t think either team has looked particularly sharp

feels like the bucks are playing 1 on 5 on offense so often without middleton out there. tatum has just felt weirdly absent from both games in milwaukee

This is exactly what they did vs. the Celtics when Kidd was coaching them. It didn’t work then either

i mean it is working

bucks watching film on tatum

Bucks going under Tatum - scoring only .81 PPP against it this season. .85 in the playoffs.

uhg

Warriors say coach Steve Kerr tested positive for COVID-19 and will miss Game 4 vs. Grizzlies. Mike Brown will serve as coach.

my lord what a soft T, get a grip

he made a scary face

don’t see how boston gets very far here with tatum playing shook like this

wow he made a shot. okay okay

yeah he's starting to get it going

people are putting him in a certain class of player now and for as nice as beating the nets in the first round was, this is a much harder and more telling task. i think he's going to need to carry them tonight offensively

Giannis time

giannis is just on a different level than any other player in the league

seems like it takes way more effort to bottle him up than it did in previous years, Celtics D looks gassed

celtics still w/in striking distance certainly

as bad as they've played on offense they're only losing by foul shots

goes w/o saying but they have to figure out what to do w/ giannis. i'd try and make the rest of their team beat me, their role players have looked pretty bad tonight. not an efficient night for giannis so far but he's on pretty much on pace for 40-20

yeah that quarter seemed a lot more lopsided than the score shows, that said Celtics are in a lot of foul trouble so good luck to 'em

damn, big al's revenge

is he gonna get tossed

whoa al!

Bucks are playing so stupid right now

they have one player on their team currently who can create offense

unreal horford game

last one too

was gonna say I thought we survived the Al Horford game

Playoffs baby

holy shit those back to back Tatum & Giannis plays

hal orford

Big alford

giannis and marcus spooning, very tender

*peg bundy voice* allllllllllll

Bucks converting roughly 40% of their layups while Horford can't miss from any distance, very cool

it's amazing that there was a time where al was a playoff underachiever

celtics missed like 50 layups earlier in the game too

yeah that seems like game

took him long enough

these george hill minutes for the bucks, yuck

Tatumtime

Celtics 13/15 this quarter christ

bucks roster looking weak tonight, giannis ran out of gas midway thru the fourth and the bucks have no other source of offense
