Basketball is a game of runs and the Milwaukee Bucks are looking to build their win streak up to five. Tonight, the Bucks face the stiffest challenge of that run against the Boston Celtics. While they’re only 2-3 on the season, Boston are a very well coached team that plays hard for Brad Stevens.
At first glance, the Celtics active roster is possibly unimpressive and definitely odd. There seem to be several redundancies on the roster but Stevens makes it work. Leading the way is the shortest player in the league, Isaiah Thomas. On the young season, he’s averaging 22 points and just under seven assists per game.
