Boston Celtics vs Milwaukee Bucks Full Highlights 1st QTR | Jan 11 | 2024 NBA Regular Season

[Applause] Celtics control the opening tip Boston coming in with the best record in the NBA and it is holiday gets up the first shot and now the bucks with their first possession holiday guarding Giannis and Giannis loses the handle that’s a match up to watch tonight coach it is and

That’s exactly how Boston matched up the first time they played in November holiday on Yannis and they play one-on-one they don’t even in the brown comes up empty Boston winning last night to go 18 and0 on their home floor as Dani Lillard rips the cords and that gets the scoring started tonight quickly

Back down the floor porzingis tried to post up Lopez and porzingis missing Brook Lopez in game one proved to be a little too strong side yanis just drops Brown throws it down Brown getting up in a wz and Giannis with a thunder dunk these two teams play third week of

November Thanksgiving week Boston won that game 119 116 as the Celtics get on the board here Jaylen Brown well that’s how Boston had success in the first meeting pick and rolls with porzingis were very very effective Damien Lillard two for two to get it started that’s a great sign for

Milwaukee Lillard in the last four games before this one was only five for 31 from three starting to cook a little bit borderline shacked in a full opportunity I’m sure Sha’s all over that right now put it on the board here’s Tatum now gives it right back porzingis for three

And it out it goes porzingis did not play last night right knee contusion as jannis go St window of their schedule right now coach but an overtime win against Minnesota at home for Joe missoula’s team last night and I think it’s good for a team like

Boston to hit a tough part of the schedule uh and keep them really heavy minutes for the Celtics at home in an overtime win last night we’ll see how that affects him here in a backto back tonight against a rival Al Horford would be the only one not available tonight and of course

Porzingis is back Yannis backing down holiday skips right by him holiday pulled the chair thought they had a travel now brown on the push porena there to throw it down in transition the Celtics get an easy two and that’s been a Milwaukee problem all year 24 in Fast

Break points allowed they just haven’t done a good job getting back getting their defense set Lillard with the left hand off to a great start here he’s three for three with eight points he knocked down his first two threes Tatum porzingis beautifully done great set up by

Tatum well porzingis very tough as a pick and roll guy because he can pop and hit the three or he can roll and finish either on the lob or catch that pocket pass then carry it to the [Applause] wiim porzingis to holay Giannis guarding holiday lot of body contact and that’ll

Be a foul and Drew holiday will go to the line here’s porzingis in transition running hard from Jaylen Brown and then on the pick and roll great bounce pass there from Tatum no one rotates the former bug Drew holiday knocks down the first one chance to

Remind you that the NBA on TNT is brought to you by the Kia Telluride xpro Kia the official Automotive partner of the NBA and brought to you by fresh pet it’s not dog food it’s food food Tami and Lillard off to a fast start the Bucks dropping backto Back

Games they’ve lost four of their last five is Beasley the top three point shooter in the league he gets a little mid-range bang shot to go Tatum get a good job running him off the three-point line he hit a tough Runner Middleton guarding Tatum gets and now the mid-range jumper is good for

Jason Tatum the smooth stroke of the allstar Tatum four times he’s been selected certainly heading back this year you would think Lopez draws contact and a couple of free throws for the bucks big man well they’ve done a lot more of that this year Brook Lopez

When he’s got a little bit of a mismatch in transition just runs to the front of the rim and posts up I like it Brook Lopez very tough to stop with his size down there particularly if your Center is not all the way back Lopez at the

Line an 81% free throw shooter what’s your concern level maybe better ask what’s the Bucks fans concern level right now about where they are this particular point of the year they they have a very good record but they’re not playing very well lately no they’re not and look the concern is their defense

Has got to be better I mean they just you have to trust history 24 of the top of the last 27 Champions have been in the top 10 defensively in the regular season 17 of them in the top five the Bucks trying to become a rare team who

Doesn’t guard the entire regular season and tries to turn it on in the playoff not very easy to do T bullies his way in and lost it out of bounds a lot of contact inside Tatum thought he was touched the Celtics bench is upset yeah I don’t know how that’s not a

Foul here’s Lillard now with white on him gives it to Lopez excellent three-point shoulder drills his first three Ball a standing ovation but I would say more of a mutual respect than an emotional transaction and when I spoke with him he couldn’t have been more focused on his new Mission bringing the Celtics a championship he said after last night’s win he said we beat them

Before I’m very confident we can do it again he said I did great things here but I’m on to better things a very professional line he’s focused Tim Hower his teammate called it a seamless transition and he said having his Insight against such a great team like Milwaukee is invaluable guys good stuff

Allly thank you and Drew holiday everywhere he’s been he has been given great respect because he’s earned it he is the epitome of a Pros Pro and I think when the bucks made him part of that deal for Damen Lillard to Portland I was like all right we’re getting Damen

Lillard but then all of a sudden he ends up with the Celtics and there’s a little U oh Factor yeah I would think that uh not saying they wouldn’t have made the deal anyway but I’m sure they weren’t thrilled to see Drew holiday end up with the Celtics jayen Brown Take It on

Giannis off the hands of Beasley holiday runs it down Second Chance opportunity here Brown on a Bullet Pass from holiday no good and that’s going to be n [Applause] be interesting to watch how Joe moula works the rotations tonight on the second end of that back to back another

Chance here for Boston Hower just onto the floor cashes one in well this is hurting Milwaukee also this year 26th in the league given up Second Chance points Middleton spins and Middleton lays it in Middleton on the floor with Damen Lillard always interesting to watch Adrien Griffin’s rotations as well when

He has the big three available porzingis and there’s Beasley with the board porzingis like Brook Lopez only shooting a little over 32% from three this year they’re still big threats but neither one of them have shot at Great pis is first minutes we appreciate Bobby joining us before the game on our

Pregame show visiting with the guys in [Applause] white little Runner no good followed by porzingis rebounding has been a problem for Milwaukee is lard with a speed dribble porz got the block here’s poris now and he lays it in good to see Bobby poris on the glass having his worst rebounding year since

His second year in the league just hasn’t been as active on the boards maj Factor AJ and Griffin talked about their rebounding struggles as a point of emphasis here’s Brown gets free Middleton a little late
