Boston Celtics played a home game against Milwaukee Bucks last night. The game was really competitive and Celtics managed to win by just 1 point difference (122-121). On Celtics side, J. Brown and J. Tatum did a really good job by scoring 30+ points. On Bucks side, G. Antetokounmpo and K. Middleton tried really hard but it wasn't enough for winning here. Giannis got 35 points and 13 rebounds. Middleton was so close to making a triple-double. He got 27 points, 14 rebounds and 8 assists.
I guess the Giannis and the Bucks ain't ready for championship title yet, specially now that teams in the East are becoming a real strong competitors.
While on the other hand, the young Celtics still struggles to win the conference finals from the last five years. I mean these both teams are good teams, but not much to win a title. Let's see what these both teams got in 2021 NBA season.
They still struggling I would say, Giannis cannot do it alone, although Middleton share with the scoring load, they needed someone form the bench that can really spark the team. It seems that there are some missing pieces to the team if they wanted to go for a ring this year as the East has a lot of very good and strong team.
Boston really played very well, very competitive as they wanted to show that they are still in the contention in the East. It's just the start and I do hope that they remain consistent. I like to see J. Tatum become the center piece of Boston's offense.
