Bucks pack the paint and encourage the 3-ball. We’re getting open looks but it’s not the way to play. I presume we’ll see Game 2 adjustments. Frankly if Brown plays a normal game this is a different animal.
Simply a matter of knocking down some uncontested 3's and the Bucks will have to change up. Just hasn't happened today.

4/13 and 7 turnovers from Brown.  That won't do it.

I love how they keep replaying that Giannis dunk - yet they haven't once yet called out the blatant travel on it. Can't mess up the narrative!  ::)

Maybe Nesmith instead of Pritchard

Bucks understand our weakness.  We are not really a good shooting team.  More like a “streaky” team

This is the real concern. Can we shoot well enough in four games to win this series?  Because the Bucks are going to push us to find out.

The refs were awful but lets be real, so were the C's. Poor shooting and also if Jaylen is only going to show up a bit in the 4th quarters (but not the other 3) then our chances aren't high of winning this series. Need a much better, more consistent effort

Very frustrating type game. Get behind early and just can't get any closer than a 6-point game.

Both were bad.

Yeah, but blaming the refs today for this loss would be ridiculous. Like if the C's lost Game 4 last series that's understandable. The C's didn't play well today at all

Brown has played horribly but has any one really besides Horford made a really positive impact? Grant and Timelord were just okay I would say. The whole team has to play better to win the next one.

Brown isn't the only one that completely wiffed in this game.  But Jaylen just hasn't been moving very well, looked tentative.  If the hammy is bad, then he shouldn't be playing.

This game feels like a reality check for the team.

A new understanding of how well / how hard they will have to play to beat this Bucks team.

Celtics are the last team to lose a game in playoffs - there's that...I guess.
