Yall can bash and make fun of the bucks for this all u want but what really matters is a 7 game series vs the celtics in the playoffs.Bucks didnt seem like they wanted this one

A 7 game series favors the Celtics even more. This was a statement. Foreshadowing what is coming later this season.

wow..bucks sucked after a great night last night…Bucks were 37% from the field and 32% from 3……coupled with the fact Coach Bud rested ppl..nobody played over 25 mins…its like Bucks just accepted the L on this one…but Boston made it look bad with that score line….Boston seem to do great against the to teams…which is good for the playoffs
