Giannis Antetokounmpo says Bucks ‘set the tone’ early in blowout win vs. Celtics | NBA on ESPN

After a very rare down stretch for this team losing four of five how important is it to come out and show yourselves a win like this tonight I think uh I think we did a good job not just playing together I think the last couple of games we haven’t been

Playing with a high effort uh our defense wasn’t as good um obviously one of those games they wasn’t uh playing but that’s not that’s not an excuse I think today we was able to come out here play hard move the ball we were aggressive uh defensively you know we set the tone

From the first minute so I’m happy that we’re able to get the win you have new faces this is a new team so what’s the what’s the amount of leash and rope and time that you give yourselves to build that trust defensively and to grow it’s

Going to take time I think every game we are getting together you know I’m happy that everybody’s available everybody’s healthy you know we can play a lot of minutes together because we going to need this this year but game to game we are getting more chemistry we’re getting

We’re learning to play with one another so every game counts we have another one on Saturday against Golden State another one on Sunday against Sacramento so every game for us count hopefully we can be we can be playing the best basketball uh in April May and June thank you so muchan we appreciate [Applause] [Applause] you

  1. If this was Boston Celtics, highlights would have been everywhere. Come on, NBA. Hold your to a higher standard. It's just embarrassing. Giannis is entitled to everything that Tatum, KD, LeBron, Luka and Joker are entitled to. Y'all can't just be talking about the Bucks and Giannis when they are struggling. The history will remember.

  2. STAT PADDING…BUCKS WINNING by 43 POINTS at half ..CELTICS stars all in the bench…GIANNIS in the game playing 9 minutes in the 3rd quarter to make his stats look good…

  3. Ten months ago on March 30, 2023 the Celts blew out the Bucks 140-99. A 41 pt lead. It happens. On to the next. And these 2 will probably face off in the playoffs.

  4. I am sick and tired of everyone calling this team or that team as the best, based on a good or a bad spell . The best team is the one that will learn all the lessons they need to learn, and which is healthy and win-ready come the playoffs. Until then let's enjoy the game.
    I am glad that the Bucks got beat-up in the last few games, as it should give them a lot to think about and a lot to change defensively before the playoffs.
    In the same way, I am glad that the Celtics got beat by the Bucks in this game, as it should help them understand how to manage their fatigue before the playoffs (if fatigue was the real reason for the loss).

  5. The Bucks murdered the Celtics right from the jump. What a bloodbath. They can win it all if they play angry like this.
