During Game 2 of their second round series against the Milwaukee Bucks, the Boston Celtics made some crucial adjustments on the defensive side of the ball. Primarily, they decided to no longer double Giannis Antetokounmpo. And thanks to the impressive one-on-one defense of Grant Williams and Al Horford, the Celtics were able to slow down Antetokounmpo while simultaneously keeping the rest of the Bucks at bay.
However, just as Antetokounmpo will likely bounce back from his struggle-filled start to the series, Milwaukee will make the necessary adjustments to counteract Boston’s defense. That change started in the second half of Game 2, where the Bucks outscored the Celtics 46-44.
