WALTHAM, Mass. – The Boston Celtics lost some momentum in their first-round playoff series against the Bucks this past weekend, dropping Games 3 and 4 in Milwaukee to erase what was once a 2-0 series lead.
Collectively speaking, however, the C’s remain confident heading into Game 5 Tuesday night, because they believe that returning to their home arena could help swing the series back into their favor.
“Playing in front of your home crowd, they can be the best sixth man in the league,” sophomore wing Jaylen Brown explained Monday afternoon following practice at the team’s training facility.
