Should not have been so close but a win is a win....especially against the Bucks.

Few things:
A win is a win

4th quarter took away from the Celtics playing a great game

Don’t like the shutting down and letting the bucks back in

Really need jrue Holiday on dame

Missed Hauser’s 3s

Celtics are their own worst enemy. Just didn’t play hard in the 4th

Get the one seed clinched and rest everyone

Whew !!!!

Almost blew a 21-point lead. When will Joe & Co. learn to stop walking the ball up when they get a lead ?
Tatum at point is a disaster, but we keep forcing that "strategy" ?

At least it didn’t go the way of the Cleveland game, but this can’t make Celtics fans feel good.

Still, this is the kind of game this team needs. They have been blowing everybody out and aren’t used to getting punched back. In the end, a win is a win. But, man, is this Bucks team unlikeable

Tough win.  Shouldn't have come down to that, but it's NBA basketball.  It happens.

This was closer that what it needed to be but JT’s 8 fourth quarter points were enough to pull out the win.

Can't be perfect every game but when you win it doesn't matter.

Wasn’t pretty, but a win is a win. TP’s all around
Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Yeah, use PP to bring that ball up!

A humbling win

They were missing Giannis but we were missing Jrue and Hauser, I don’t see it as a humbling win, the Bucks are 2nd in the seats right now. Yes it would have been good to beat them by 50 but it doesn’t always happen. I’m glad we hung in there by our fingernails  :laugh:
