This is a must-win for Milwaukee, but Boston is talented, plays dominant defense and matches up well. They are 5-0 in the playoffs. During the regular season, the Celtics' defense was eighth in points allowed, and fourth in field goal shooting defense. Game 1 was a Boston clinic, holding Milwaukee to 34.8% shooting and rolling as a dog, 112-90. Bucks' starting guard Malcolm Brogdon (plantar fascia) is still out. He was the 2017 Rookie of the Year. The Celtics are 10-3 ATS in the last 13 meetings, including 9-3 ATS at Milwaukee. Play Boston.
