Will both defenses continue to feast?
Game 1 between the Milwaukee Bucks and Boston Celtics was a bit of a throwback. The Bucks barely broke 100 points and the Celtics didn’t even touch 90. It was a defensive battle through and through, which shouldn’t exactly be surprising.
Though, you’d have to wonder if that is going to continue to be the case heading into Game 2. In the first game, the Celtics only shot 33 percent shooting from the field and 36 percent shooting from 3. Milwaukee didn’t perform much better, shooting only 41 percent from the field and 35 percent from 3.
Only two starters from both teams combined shot 50 percent or better from the field (Robert Williams and Bobby Portis). From the look of Game 1, we could have ourselves an old-fashioned defensive battle. Buckle up.
