This was as ugly as it has been for Milwaukee so far this season, and that’s saying something. As the Milwaukee Bucks fell to a 16 point loss to the underwhelming Boston Celtics, there was no hiding from the shortcomings of this performance.
They may have suffered a big loss at the hands of the Knicks on opening night, but at least the absences of Jabari Parker and Giannis Antetokounmpo acted as a valid excuse. There was no such cover on Tuesday night.
The first quarter started spectacularly with some formidable play, particularly on the defensive end.
