Jrue Holiday on Celtics Starters Getting BENCHED vs Bucks | Postgame Interview 1/11/24
Unusual to have it happen that early uh yeah uh I think it just wasn’t the lack of us not playing hard just having a tough schedule and then um it being a back toback is going in overtime having a flight um I think just based off the way
The game went sometimes coaches make decisions like that so uh was sorry oh go ahead was there dialogue like did you guys say he want to be in there did you guys say yeah that’s the right call like what was time no he yes and you know we
Wanted to fight we wanted to uh stay in there and play but sometimes as coaches or as players sometimes you have to listen to your coaches too so um you know I I appreciate Joe for that because again I think as a coach he definitely does care about our wellbeing
Um and he also knows that like we’re going to fight to the end no matter what the score is so U I guess just for you U when we’re talking to Dame about playing the play like well it’s not the same as going to Portland and playing there who cares for
You what was it like to play here tonight right it was cool it was cool to be back it felt comfortable walking in I just walked in a different way um seeing familiar faces uh saying hello to to people that um i’ had seen for the last
Three years so it was it was it was cool to see everybody what was it like hearing the cheers from fans and seeing that yeah it was awesome you know um my stent here I had a great time and and uh it was really fun and had some great
Memories and showed some of those memories on the Jumbotron so it was cool to kind of see that and then the fans here have always been great uh they’ve always been um supportive of me and my family uh and the team here so uh it’s definitely a fun place to play did you
Get a chance to take in video package at all or is that something like look at later uh a little bit a little bit of it um we was getting an ass kick so I was kind of locked into the game trying to figure that out but um
I saw some of it and um again I I just appreciate what the Bucs have done for me and my family everything that we’ve been through um the city of Milwaukee uh what what it means to me and my family so it was um it was cool to come back it
Was cool to had a video and uh but I’m glad it’s over by chance did it feel maybe different than you expected it to feel did it was just like it was just kind of like a Reunion forense yeah it was like a reunion you know it was uh
Like I said it was good to see people that that um um again I had seen for a long time walking through these doors and uh people that I care for and people that care for me so it’s always a good time to it’s always a good thing to come
In and walk into that and have that that Embrace from fans and uh people that work here from the team so it was uh it was cool Jo said these losses happen you know during the year you know in your experience what’s the key to putting you
Know loss like this behind you quickly the next game the next game coming out um locking in and taking care of business business uh again I’ve been on this end of it before um but I think the type of team that we have the resiliency
That we have um how we play and we feel like we play the right way uh we’re going to come out and fight and again it wasn’t a lack of us not hustling or playing hard um we know that when when we step onto the court we’re going to
Give it a all so not worried true is there anything tonight was fatigue I mean let’s be honest three three and four nights over time anything the league can do that they haven’t already done to prevent nights like this where you guys are just coming out and like
Saying damn we we just don’t have it like yeah probably what probably yeah I don’t know I don’t really want to speak on that because I’m I don’t do scheduling and all that but uh there’s probably a couple things I’m curious just would you physicality from the Bucks defensively
Tonight what do you see from them in that regard uh that they’re physic you know um they do a good job of protecting the paint um you know clogging up the paint so you try to get in there and get fouled you always have Brook and Yannis
Down there protecting the paint and then um great guard play Malik um Dame they look like they were locked in Chris it seemed like they were uh definitely sliding the puppies tonight so
BOSTON — In Jrue Holiday’s return to Milwaukee, the Bucks took a commanding lead, going up by as many as 43 points against the Boston Celtics. This strong performance resulted in the Celtics benching their starters in the second half. Commenting on not playing in the second half, Holiday mentioned, “Having a tough schedule and it being a back-to-back… based on the way the game went, sometimes coaches make decisions like that.” His return had a noticeable impact on the game.

Jrue will always be a Bucks legend. It wasnt a stint in Milwaukee, it was history and will live forever.
THEY ARE NOT COACHED TO PLAY REAL DEFENSE
No one will beat the Celtics in a seven game series period!
That was really a butt kicking last night
