The Boston Celtics have played the Milwaukee Bucks four times this season. Well... that’s what the schedule tells us, at least. In watching Tuesday night’s blowout loss in Milwaukee, it felt as though these two teams hardly know each other at all.
In a way, that’s the truth. The two teams have put several games in the books, but they’ve looked different every time — sometimes just a little bit, sometimes significantly. Regardless of which team you root for, you have a “yeah, but...” rebuttal you can point to for their losses. Yeah, but Giannis was out.
