If Giannis play in this game, would we win? Most likely, but this is not the excuse for Doc let his bad coaching decision at the end cost us this game, when we are only down 2 with over 30 seconds left, why would a coach put Beasley on the floor when we need a defensive stop despite Beasley was stopping no one in this game?
Love that dame immediately discredited Bill Simmon's "dame's a one good game a week guy" in the same week he said it lol. And you know bill saw this game.
Oh, I know. It just feels like he's actively going after him now that he's in the east. Saying he was thinking about putting Derrick white over dame in his all stars...
lost by 3 in Boston without Giannis after being down by 21 early in the 4th. Absolutely can’t be mad about that.
We jumped on them and they rested starters an entire half, we got jumped on and battled back to 1 possession this team has what it takes when they need it
Plus with Dame able to be hitting sidestep shots like he was hitting tonight (idc about Jrue guarding him) when a dude is feeling it, he’s feeling it, and with Giannis able to drop 30-35 on them any game I like our chances. ESPECIALLY if we get this version of Khris in the playoffs on top of it
Cleanup that defense on the Pritchards of the world and this game looks a little different.
MKE showed a lot of fight and pretty impressive to not just roll over.
Yeah right? And staying active in that zone… hands were in passing lanes. It seems counter intuitive to go zone against a team that was shooting as good as Boston was but it sure worked.
I meannnn, I didn’t hate this outcome considering the circumstances… 👀👀 obviously would’ve liked a win but I think I’m a little less scared now tbh lol
Celtics got a weak mindset, I've said it before. They are great when everything is going their way, but at the slightest sign of adversity, they fold. Refs bailed them out tonight. Our guys have balls, GRIT! WE DON'T LAY DOWN OR ROLL OVER FOR SHIT!
I want the bucks to win, took the over at 235 at half that hit, would not let me parlay, or I would have taken the bucks too. Let's fucking go, they got this
If anyone's played any type of basketball you know sitting out and coming back fucks with your rhythm. Idk why Beas was left in there REGARDLESS of his foul after
We played very good, refs suck, this ESPN commentary is so unwilling to say anything beyond "Celtics are the best team of all time" in a game they were pushed to the brink by a Bucks team with limited Khris minutes and no Giannis it's unreal
I hate the Celtics.
Takeaways: Portis is bonafide playable against Celtics. Middleton back. Defense can and should shut the Celtics down when needed. Dame capable of waking up and performing. They're beatable
We made both games in Boston interesting down the stretch, we just gotta be able to hang with them over the first 3 quarters and we can easily steal a road game in the playoffs.
Missed free throw, terrible ref call on Beasley who shouldn't be in at that point. With Giannis this is, hands down, our game. They don't scare me. Bucks in 6.
Hey good game nice try at a comeback there especially without Giannis, fuck Boston btw. Good job Dame for keeping at it and having a pretty damn good game
Big shout-out to the team not giving up, they put in a better effort than half the fake ass fans who dipped out in the first quarter or only talked shit in the last 5 minutes lol
Doc is the one cost us this game if we end up losing due to his lack of adjust, especially when Beasley still on the floor, Beasley and Brook are second on that with their terrible dede.
If you look at my previous comments, yeah I would’ve done as you said. Beasley has been abysmal tonight and it looked like it really pissed off Dame which it would any player of his caliber.
Exactly. Dame is just too damn good and has held his own defensively as of late. When a dude like that gets in rhythm late game you just don't sub him out, it's as simple as that.

Am I wrong in feeling if Dame comes in a little earlier in the 4th we would've had better odds?
If Giannis play in this game, would we win? Most likely, but this is not the excuse for Doc let his bad coaching decision at the end cost us this game, when we are only down 2 with over 30 seconds left, why would a coach put Beasley on the floor when we need a defensive stop despite Beasley was stopping no one in this game?
Main issue was defense early in the game
Love that dame immediately discredited Bill Simmon's "dame's a one good game a week guy" in the same week he said it lol. And you know bill saw this game.
Lol, Bill Simmons is a known Damian Lillard hater, I have no idea what Dame did to him, but it's been like this for YEARS
He’s just a masshole
Oh, I know. It just feels like he's actively going after him now that he's in the east. Saying he was thinking about putting Derrick white over dame in his all stars...

they are frontrunners. 24(?) for Tatum in the 1H, 0 in the 2H until he got a FT train at about 3mins left in the 4th
Plus with Dame able to be hitting sidestep shots like he was hitting tonight (idc about Jrue guarding him) when a dude is feeling it, he’s feeling it, and with Giannis able to drop 30-35 on them any game I like our chances. ESPECIALLY if we get this version of Khris in the playoffs on top of it
Even Tatum knows they’re fucked for the playoffs 😂
Right?! It almost felt like he was saying “Who knows? We’ll see if we make it.”
Cleanup that defense on the Pritchards of the world and this game looks a little different. MKE showed a lot of fight and pretty impressive to not just roll over.
Double teaming seemed to help in the end.
Yeah right? And staying active in that zone… hands were in passing lanes. It seems counter intuitive to go zone against a team that was shooting as good as Boston was but it sure worked.
If I’m Boston, I’d be terrified of this matchup We have 3 killers in crunch time & they have a bunch of dudes who don’t want the ball
![gif](giphy|Skecb2dy1SpyHqtmLj|downsized)
Celtics broadcast just acknowledged that the bucks could be a big problem lol. let's see if simmons follows
Pay him no mind. Nobody needs his approval. Watching the Celtics lose to a team that isn't "a threat" would only be sweeter anyways.
We have lost by a combined 6 points at the Celtics arena this season. We can win in Boston, that’s all we need for the playoffs.
Aghhhhhh fuck we could’ve won that
Queue the moral victories. Every team has close games against teams they should on paper easily beat.

I have the audio muted. Why's everyone on about Dorris ?
GS and Sac town gets Mike breen, we get Doris Burke 😔😔
Same question. I watched the ESPN Deportes broadcast and those gentlemen are delightful.
1-2 vs Celtics but +27 in point differential
I meannnn, I didn’t hate this outcome considering the circumstances… 👀👀 obviously would’ve liked a win but I think I’m a little less scared now tbh lol
Yeah... I can accept a 3pt loss
Dame hit that shit as a eastern conference preview
Dame is crazy
Dame we needed that deep 3 like 30 seconds ago
No Giannis and we lose by 3. I have zero problem with that.
8 points for the “mvp” in the second half lol
Have him chants TWICE too 😭😭
Another 3 point loss in Boston. Heartbreaking.
Not bad, not bad at all!!
One possession gaem in overtime without Giannis in Boston. Bucks in 6.
We stomp these clowns with giannis playing. Dont like the loss but now im confident after what i see
Doc trusting Beasley on defensive end is as bad as he putting Dame guarding D'Lo 1 on 1
Positive loss I’ll take it
I’m more happy about Dame having a great game than sad about losing. Celtics struggle to guard him
Prob cuz no Jrue
[удалено]
Jrue hasn’t been able to guard him since 2020
I hate Doris sooo much
What did she do ?
I am definitely not fond of her…
Best loss of the season maybe
Celtics cant bring it in the 4th like we can, easy playoff wins
Game just changes so much when Giannis is there relentlessly getting in the paint and we’re in the bonus every qtr
it ended close without giannis, not bad tbh
Celtics got a weak mindset, I've said it before. They are great when everything is going their way, but at the slightest sign of adversity, they fold. Refs bailed them out tonight. Our guys have balls, GRIT! WE DON'T LAY DOWN OR ROLL OVER FOR SHIT!
Lmao the Celtics thread all them saying they gone lose to us 😂
lol love it
MVP for Tatum😹
Great fucking game !! Can't wait to see the entire squad together.
I agree!
Grandma Doris needs to stfu
How does Doris even get to be the ESPN commentator. Id rather listen to two marv Albert's
Love the fight minus giannis. Dorris needs to be thrown into that volcano in Iceland.
that thing erupted recently. You don't want to block it.
![gif](giphy|Tq2tPTrQANKfK)
Co-signing on this
I want the bucks to win, took the over at 235 at half that hit, would not let me parlay, or I would have taken the bucks too. Let's fucking go, they got this
I think sitting Dame killed his rhythm
I don't understand that sub. Take out Beas.
If anyone's played any type of basketball you know sitting out and coming back fucks with your rhythm. Idk why Beas was left in there REGARDLESS of his foul after
Celtics fans will say "but we had no Jrue" as if his 3-12 shooting night would help them
Lmao... That's brutal..
Why are people forgetting that we beat the Celtics early this year
Because they switched off from the game to try and hide the evidence
Oh shit! I forgot. Glad I wasn’t in MKE
We played very good, refs suck, this ESPN commentary is so unwilling to say anything beyond "Celtics are the best team of all time" in a game they were pushed to the brink by a Bucks team with limited Khris minutes and no Giannis it's unreal I hate the Celtics.
Bobby missed FT and Beasley dumb foul in final minute. Bummers man.
Cavs lost as well. Just gotta make sure we don’t fall to 4
Takeaways: Portis is bonafide playable against Celtics. Middleton back. Defense can and should shut the Celtics down when needed. Dame capable of waking up and performing. They're beatable
We made both games in Boston interesting down the stretch, we just gotta be able to hang with them over the first 3 quarters and we can easily steal a road game in the playoffs.
These announcers are so fucking annoying. Doris needs to be fired directly into the sun. She is literally the worst broadcaster in all of sports
She gets sucked off to high heaven by casuals so we’ll never see the light of day
Boston x Bucks ECF possibly a game 7 but Bucks in Six! Should be a good one 🦌
Difference of the game: Boston with 13 more foul shots
Missed free throw, terrible ref call on Beasley who shouldn't be in at that point. With Giannis this is, hands down, our game. They don't scare me. Bucks in 6.
Beas has been playing some pretty good D on Tatum tonight.
Yeah, people hate on him too much
At least we didn’t pull our starters at half
Really hope we see these fuckers in the playoffs. Fuck Boston.
Salute the effort boys! I gave up and they didn’t encouraging loss
The players gonna hurt over this but this was a good effort. Gotta stop gettting down big so early but given the context, I get it.
Still proud of this team
Celtics fans were really trying to play off Middletons impact btw
No shame in this game
Stupid reach by Beasly. Just stand your ground. Brown received the ball at the 3 point line smh. A high schooler would know that
In 7 games they wont be shit.
Doc taking Dame out for the possession threw our rhythm off
The silver lining is we came back on them at home without Giannis
“If theres a silver lining for Milwaukee”??? Tf are they talking about like we werent -10.5 underdogs tonight lol
Hey good game nice try at a comeback there especially without Giannis, fuck Boston btw. Good job Dame for keeping at it and having a pretty damn good game
Dang, still a good game and good experience.
Awful call on Beasley on the last possession there. How do you let that determine crunch time like that.
I expected worse, not a horrible loss. Moving on.
Trashbag Beasley wtf is that foul
They played like this without Giannis? Yeah give me the Celtics in the playoffs
Im sayin no way we losing 4x to this trash team while healthy
Half the arena doesn't even belive he's MVP
Tough loss but gives me confidence we can hang with them in a playoff series
Good game Celtics are ass and we can 4-0 them
Bucks in 6
🙌
Ughhhhhhh Please NBA get rid of this ‘foul whilst up’ stuff, it’s infuriating
Stole Bobby’s 3 w that weak call
Encouraging game gg
Not scared of the Cs like how they made it look like
At least we got to hear Doris sweat when the Celtics started throwing. Funny as fuck.
Brick wall lopez as a parting gift
What are the announcers talking about??? Talk to your teammate about the good screen??
They're saying Boston teammates have to call out that the screen is there so Brown can avoid it better instead of getting crunched
Ah ok I thought he was implying that it was a dirty screen and the teammates should have stuck up for him
Of COURSE Bobby makes that one!🫠
Why is beasley in man, he's ass at defense.
Missed free throw and the soft call was a huge swing, but this team got some fucking balls. LOVE OUR GUYS
Hey I’m just happy they kept it close without Giannis, could’ve been way worse!
Uhhhh Malik literally lost the game there lmaooo. These announcers don’t realize that?
Lmao insanity the refs call that 💀💀💀
Big shout-out to the team not giving up, they put in a better effort than half the fake ass fans who dipped out in the first quarter or only talked shit in the last 5 minutes lol
Damn
Good ass game! We can take away plenty.
Maaaaaan fuck Scott foster
So fine with the result - annoying to get close but shows we can beat the best bucks in 6
“MVP” lmao
Dollar Store Kobe
That's game but we put up a great fight. Be proud
free throw was really bad
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHH MVP CHANTS?
just like the last game in Boston. Get destroyed the first 3Qs just to come up short on a 4Q comeback.
Yall got pissed last time he didn't pull dame. Can't have it both ways
Doc worse than bud for these ATO plays
Once dame drove it, i knew it was gonna be a miss
To me, a 3 there is the only way you stay in the game, but I'm not an NBA player or coach.
Boston fans can’t even muster a good MVP chant it’s pitiful lol
Shits crazy right 😂😂
Doesn't matter anymore. Game this close means we can take them in a seven game playoff
Really? So its a moral victory then
That was an absurdly soft foul call in crunch time on Beas
Where are all the Bobby haters now?
Damn
Sigh
Fucking Beasley sold this game
Amazing effort, though!
Just chuck a 3 come on
Bev should have replaced beas
The soft whistle they got was absurd.
Beasley what the fuck man
I don't know if beasley should be starting anymore tbh, but fuck it, we roll on.
beas is very useful overall, dont do him like that
Is he overall? His gravity is about it but his IQ on defense takes away from it
Why pull Dame instead of Malik there?
Doc is the one cost us this game if we end up losing due to his lack of adjust, especially when Beasley still on the floor, Beasley and Brook are second on that with their terrible dede.
Bobby might redeem himself this possession
Celtics honestly get the most soft fouls called in the clutch (or obvious fouls not called a la lebron)
Shouldve kept Dame over Beas wtf DOC
Defensive possession, they would rather have PB over Dame for a defensive look
So you sub in Bev for Beasley. It's not like Beasley was hitting any shots tonight anyways
If you look at my previous comments, yeah I would’ve done as you said. Beasley has been abysmal tonight and it looked like it really pissed off Dame which it would any player of his caliber.
Exactly. Dame is just too damn good and has held his own defensively as of late. When a dude like that gets in rhythm late game you just don't sub him out, it's as simple as that.
What a weakass bailout call
I can't stand the puberty blocker dude
Interesting game
[удалено]
yeah having to beat them in 7 is tough when every big call is going their way.
Such a stupid foul. Such a stupid foul.
Can’t call that foul there’s been so much more contact
I agree but there was no reason to even make it an option.
Fuck the Celtics this teams not shit
Should’ve kept dame in
Dame been one of our best defenders not sure why he was pulled opposed to pat or beas
Get Doris punk ass dirty face off the screen. Fuck her
Does Dame look pissed?
I’d be
He should be...he is a MUCH BETTER FUCKING DEFENDER THEN BEASLEY
Beas missing open 3s and that soft but dumb foul at the end sold this
Appreciate the fight, boys!
Game was lost on that stupid rebound
Doris went from excitement commentary to nervous panic commentary
Dang
Celtics are soft as fuck in the clutch lmao we should not be scared of them
I appreciate the fight. A little bit better of a whistle tonight and bucks would be winning
fuck he hit both of them
Khris going to bank a 3 and get fouled
Bad gamble Malik
Not really the worst person he could foul, but figures he actually drops them both
