In a duel that caught all the attention as it brought together the first and second team in the Eastern Conference, it was the Milwaukee Bucks who won against the Boston Celtics with authority 135-102. Bobby Portis, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard were the ones who stood out the most at home, contributing more than 20 points each.
One of the highlights of the week for the NBA took place at the Fiserv Forum. The local and shooting guard, Milwaukee Bucks, received the leader of the Eastern Conference, Boston Celtics to measure themselves for the first time this season in a game that promised for the proper names and for being great contenders for the ring.
And from the beginning of the fight the homeowner came out with the intention of demolishing his opponent and making him feel that he was not in Boston. Milwaukee was a steamroller on offense, permanently hurting the opposing defense while closing in under their backboard and preventing the Celtics from playing their game.
After a few first minutes where the Bucks were in front but could not take off, a devastating 25-0 partial would arrive between the end of the first quarter and the beginning of the second that would establish an irrecoverable difference on the scoreboard. Milwaukee flourished on offense, scoring 75 points in the first half and allowing only 38 to go into halftime with an abysmal lead.
And far from settling and allowing their opponents to get closer, after halftime the locals continued to dominate and stretch the distance to reach the maximum of 43 points. Bobby Portis (28 points and 12 rebounds), Giannis Antetokounmpo (24 and 12) and Demian Lillard (21) They excelled among their own and reduced their rivals to ashes.
Thus, the clock was running out and the notable supremacy that was becoming irreversible allowed Adrian Darnell Griffin to give minutes to almost his entire bench, allowing his substitutes to have playing time for almost the entire last period to also allow the starters to rest.
It was an unexpected beating by the Bucks against the East leader by 135-102, thus achieving 26 wins and 12 losses, narrowing the gap in the table against their current rival. The Celtics were danced from start to finish but still remain at the top with a 29-9 record.
