LOL a lot of people lost a bet on this one.
Same story last year, they are 2 dominant team, but still the same Warriors become Champion.
Run and dunk fake mvp run is officially over
What Happened here?
Hope this both team battle again in playoffs
repeat white white repeat
Playoff is the real game
this is annahilation
Boston went through the Bucks like a Stimulus Check CRAZY!!!
Brown joining chicago !
Why can't coach Bud tell whoever is defending Horford guard him for 3 pointers only cause that is all he can do? Bucks were cold coming off back to back games simple as that. Bucks will roast em in the playoffs.

Tatum & Brown put them away in 3 qtrs of play🔥🔥🔥
I'm a Celtic fan , but honestly this makes the NBA look stupid with these back to back games.
I lived in the Bay Area from 2010 to 2021. The Warriors television commentator broke down teams record going against Denver in back to backs since 40 years ago; it was laughable.
I know he was talking about playing in Denver or Salt Lake City , but I bet the stats are just as bad against teams that play back to backs even at home when the other team had the previous day off.
The Bucks also lost a back to back to Denver after scoring over 140 points over Utah just like they did over the Pacers last night.
I don't know how this type of scheduling helps the product of THE NBA . All this sitting out and blowouts , regardless if it's the same for all teams.
The celtics.. man they are a tough team to Guage. They lack maturity sometimes. But when they are locked in. They are the best in the nba. Honestly. The only thing standing in the way of banner 18 for the cs is the bucks. I don't think any team in the west can beat Boston in a 7 game series. I think cs vs Memphis, Sacramento pheonix are all done in 6 games. Denver is the only team I think that can take boston to 7. If tatum had a great series vs golden state last year they could have won a ring. Tatum let his team down last year. So I'm utterly terrified of the destruction he's gonna cause in the playoffs. Plus for this postseason run they have malcom. Marcus and rob are healthy. And d white has taken a dramatic step this year. This team is scary. They had it to the finals last year with like no depth. Grant Pritchard and d white was the celtics bench last year. 😂😂
Tatum is the 🐐
THIS WAS BY FAR THE MOST FIXED GAME I SEEN TODAY
That was a statement.
The ball was very hard for bucks this time. Let's see how Mike Budenholzer will response these kind of losses
You know the bucks are getting an ass whooping when Giannis' brother is on the court🤣🤣
Eye should yes

Holy threes I don’t think they showed a single field goal for the Celtics only threes
I see the best player on the team setting the pace as always. Another great start to the game by Jaylen Brown. I love this guy.
Jalen brown is tough with the jumper.
This Is what champions look like, Boston In my opinion Is gonna make back on back finals appearances. The West Is so competitive for spots but the East Is on lock
Imagine if the Celtics played like this every game
Williams with those offensive rebounds really helped alot
NBA IS GETTING A BORING GAME LEAGUE. NO CHALLENGE AT ALL…👎💯😅😅😅😅😅😅🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
up 30, star players shouldn't play anymore, that's too risky, specially then 2nd seed is almost securely locked
