Giannis struggled shooting the ball vs the Celtics so he put on a defense and passing master class. KD struggled shooting the ball vs the Celtics so he watched his team get swept

[@s.t2627]

Totally agree. He saw Boston's defense was making him struggle getting his usual easy baskets so he trusted his team and they delivered. The Milwaukee team in general reminds me of the great San Antonio teams. One Super star who isn't into media etc.. lot's of players around him who know their role. Team always considered good, but never "favorites" and they continue to prove doubters wrong

@Tiger Hoods I so agree to you though I'm a KD fan but you said it right ✅

[@aRationalMan]

Τριαντάφυλλε, όχι. Απλά οι Bucks παίζουν πια ULTRA TALL BALL με 3 7footers ταυτόχρονα. Ο τραυματισμός του Middleton τους έκανε καλό. Δοκίμασαν κάτι "παλαβό" αλλά τους βγαίνει γιατί και ο Brook και ο Bobby σουτάρουν καλά το 3ποντο και αφήνουν και ανοιχτό χώρο στο Γιάννη να επιτίθεται στη μπασκέτα. Στην άμυνα, με 3 7footers δεν περνάει κουνούπι μέσα. Τάπες, ριμπαουντ, κοψίματα, deflections κτλ. Μακάρι να παίξουν με GSW τελικό να έχουμε το απόλυτο TALL BALL vs SMALL BALL και να σκουπίσουν τους GSW 4-0 για πλάκα

[@sportsforlife127]

Giannis is a God send for the NBA to teach athletes to avoid joining super teams, to toughen/MAN up from injuries, to persevere even if you're game is weak until you reach the level you want and to stay humble at it. Also this man is not an American athlete, him being an immigrant to an American sport speaks volumes. Man, sky is the limit for this man's career.

[@aRationalMan]

SUPER TALL BALL Bucks OBLITERATED Celtics that also play tall ball from mid-December onwards. Middleton’s injury was a blessing in disguise for Bucks cause they tried the UNTHINKABLE. To start Giannis and Brook Lopez and Bobby Portis together. 3 TREES together bringing the whole TALL BALL saga back. Brook Lopez and Bobby Portis are also good 3point shooters so they spread the floor and leave the lane open for Giannis to attack the basket. As for the defence? Try score on Bucks with 3 7footers waiting for you inside the baseline. It’s a blocking and rebounding party. Celtics this year basically copied Bucks and Lakers 2019-2020 strategy (play BIG, ultrabig) from mid-December and they became a juggernaut. They decided to start 2 centers (Theis or G.Williams+Horford) and 3 also tall for their positions players (Smart is tall for his, Brown for his, Tatum for his). This strategy paid off by making them a force last 4 months. The same strategy that changed Pelicans path from late-February onwards. Pelicans decided to start 2 centers (Valanciunas + Hayes) and from being a lottery team, voila….they nearly defeated Suns! Celtics had an EASY PATH by facing small ball Nets and obliterating that joke of a team (small ball Nets). But Bucks play SUPERBIG and Celtics cant handle them the way they handled Nets. Its time to admit it. With the excemption of GSW 2015-2018 run (and even then, GSW having the 2 best shooters of all time @ their peaks, they needed to add KD, cause Lebron had figured them out after 2016 finals), NBA titles need SIZE and HEIGHT. Lakers 2019-2020 started AD, Lebron and JaVale or Dwight (and they played BIGGER than their opponent. If their opponent eg Heat had Bam as a center who is undersized for a 5, then AD on court was enough. If their opponent had Jokic, Lakers inserted Dwight and AD together etc). Bucks last year always played with 2 7footers on court. Giannis and Brook Lopez. Or Giannis and Bobby Portis. Or Bobby Portis and Brook Lopez. This year after Middleton’s injury, they even play 3 TOWERS together. Raptors 2018-2019 played Gasol, Ibaka, Siakam, Kawhi and only 1 short guy, Kyle Lowry. The secret to win in basketball ? It was always the same. You know the motto ? “Basketball is the sport of the tall” PERIOD. I pray for a Bucks vs GSW Finals. TALL BALL vs the joke SMALL BALL. Mark it down. It is going to be a 4-0 sweep for the Bucks! Please, basketball gods! Give us a Bucks vs GSW Finals. I want to see the end of the small ball farce, once and for all! “Basketball is the sport of the tall” PERIOD.

[@SenorAzazel]

Bruh it's only 1 game don't get ahead of yourself

[@aRationalMan]

@@SenorAzazel From Middleton's injury onwards, Bucks are a JUGGERNAUT. They tried the 3 TOWERS experiment and it paid off. No way they lose vs small ball Heat playing with Bam as a center (an undersized center). And then if basketball gods, give us GSW as a finalist, then its going to be a party. I predict a 4-0 sweep with point differentials OVER 35-40 points. If you dont believe it, check January's regular season game Bucks vs GSW @ Milwaukee. It was something like 75-38 at halftime! Then Bucks played their bench....And now Bucks play even better and even BIGGER. PLEASE, basketball gods, give us a Bucks vs GSW finals! I want to see the end of the small ball saga from the team that started that joke in the "sport of the tall".

[@Sbock86]

Transition D by Celtics was awful. They gotta figure out how to get some points in the paint too otherwise this series is done. Can't keep settling for threes. Get some midrange. Pretty confident Ime will make adjustments.

[@ninjachannel007]

One day Jalen Brown will realize he's the difference between the C's being a good team and a champion. I watched him take passive jumpers all game, leaving Tatum to try and do too much because his running mate refuses to use his superior athleticism to get at the rim. He's got Jordan level physicality, but a sometimey temperament.

[@vasilisneorun1700]

Giannis had the triple double after 34 minutes !!!

[@David-yg3yf]

Almost five years since 2018 Celtics best record in ecf G7. Celtics still not finding the pivot that could stand in the free throw line, shoot or pass, like AD, Gasol or Draymond. So their offense is problematic. Once opponents control paint area and three point line they done

[@thensocial3603]

Giannis vs Jason, both Kobe's proteges. And damn, they both delivered.

[@sleepyheadz]

With Holiday and Smart on both teams, scoring is gonna be like 90's low. Holiday stepped up his scoring while Smart did not.

[@tobiasfunke2011]

As a Sixer fan just hoping to meet either team in ECF this one surprised me a bit. Maybe Boston had an off day, but I thought they were better defensively than this? And since when did Jrue Holiday get so good? He never did this for us, at least not consistently. To his credit he seems to have improved. I still think it goes at least 6 games

[@robertg1477]

I'm a Knicks fan and I feel the need to defend the Celtics today. I mean they swept netsn and had a letdown in game 1. I expect them to rebound big time in game 2 and take this series unless Middleton comes back. I mean it wasn't a true blowout today. Take it with a grain of salt

[@hansrelaxingdeepsleep937]

Giannis is overwhelming and he's not yet too involved in this Game

[@LETSROCKTA]

They’re not as soft as the nets. This is gonna be a series where the Celtics find that they simply cannot physically dominate. They hit the wall fast this game and I think they won’t recover on time for game 2. The bucks are tough again this year.
