The game is ragged as both teams seem flat. Green and Jefferson put on memorable displays as Green got a dunk and a nice steal. Jefferson was effective on the low post offense.
The starters are steady.
Milwaukee is playing poorly, with bad ball movement and poor shot selection. They did a good job setting the slow tempo and making this a 1/2 court snoozer of a game.
Let's hope somebody brings energy to the table, hopefully a Celtic.

Celts inbound on the side. PP misses a 3 but is fouled and will go to the line and shoot 3 FTs with 13.8 on the clock. He back rims the first. Hits the second. he misses the third. Redd rebounds and is fouled immediately. Not the guy you want to foul as he is shooting 95% from the line in Feb. Redd hits both FTs. Celts take time out with 11.8 in the game. Bucks up 90-86. Greene inbounds on the side. Gets it in to raef who misses a 3 and Bucks rebound. Redd is fouled with 4.3 in the game. Redd hits both FTs. Celts get it in but don't get the shot off. Bucks win 92-86. Very tough loss but we really played terrible tonight. We couldn't knock down open shots and we were outrebounded 49-36 on the boards. Bucks beat us to the loose balls and we just didn't play the kind of defense we have been playing in the past few games. Just not the kind of effort I expected in a game this important.

This was a statement game for the Celtics. They cannot expect to win every game between now and Patriots game because quite frankly, they don't have their full health and good form that goes with it. They are still recovering from their cancer (Blount and Banks). They simply did not have the goods to rebound with Milwaukee and frankly got worn out. Sorry to say this but we needed Delonte West and Perkins back tonight. Denver is coming in Sunday and I think we will have trouble with them.
We weren't very good in any phase of the game tonight. We did not do much right.
