A lot of people on here have been weirdly dismissive about the Bucks as a real threat in the East and I'm not really sure why. Yeah the defense has problems with Dame, but its going to take a huge effort to KO them this year, and the Celtics better be ready to play a complete series.

Is the Port Cellar going to start taking the Bucks seriously or no?

You can say that again.

Who has been dismissive about the Bucks other than saying they aren't 40+ points better than they've showed against the Cs tonight?

Chances are the Celtics won’t even need to KO the Bucks at all. Why worry about a hypothetical 5 months away?

The world’s highest paid cheerleader/safety blanket comes in and immediately embarrasses himself. Nice.

The TNT isolation angles are like watching a game through a keyhole. You cannot see the baskets so you have to go by sound whether a shot goes in.

U can still see the score :(

It has been worth keeping this on to see Thanasis be the worst basketball player I’ve ever seen.

Were all the reasons given to you the first time you mentioned that everyone was being dismissive not enough reasoning that you had to bring it up again?

The reasons are dumb. This wasn't just a schedule loss, it was a vicious beat down by a motivated team that the Celtics were not ready to match.

Yeah if you ignore all of the reasons and deny reality then what you’re saying is true.

Im choosing to believe it was a low key middle finger to the NBA :)
I hate the way the NBA schedules

All about national tv and no interest in spacing.
I especially hate the back to backs against the same team
Sucks for fans

Bench played pretty well it seems, especially Hauser, PP, and Brissett.

I just heard some dummy writer on the radio saying “now the tape is out on the Celtics; they can’t handle size” because of last night’s game. I almost went off the road my eyes rolled so hard.

Then the host guy up here in Maine asks, “do you think calling up Walsh might be part of the answer?” For real.
