The Boston Celtics were at the Fiserv Forum today, to take on the Milwaukee Bucks for Game 3. After splitting the game at home, the Celtics would hope to return the favor at the least. However, they couldn’t achieve the same today.
The Celtics got bulldozed by a 6’11 Greek force of nature. Giannis Antetokounmpo bullied his way into the paint whenever he wanted and helped the Bucks edge a 103-101 win. However, it wasn’t only Giannis’s domination behind the Celtics’ loss.
Jayson Tatum scored only 10 points, going 4/19 from the field. Marcus Smart struggled too, going just 1/8 from the field. After leading 50-46 at the half, the Cs were down 80-67 at the end of 3rd. However, they outscored the Bucks 34-23 in the final quarter, coming close to beating them at home.
There were a lot of calls that could’ve gone both sides, and Ime Udoka wasn’t pleased about the same. He let it be known after the game.
Ime Udoka gets trolled for claiming he needs to teach his guys to flop
With Giannis Antetokounmpo dominating the paint, there were a lot of blocking fouls on the Cs, which could’ve easily been charge calls. Ime Udoka wasn’t pleased about the same, and talked about it after the game.
This did not sit right with NBA Twitter. They used his ‘flop more’ comment to troll the coach.
I guess we’re headed for a flop-fest in Game 4, courtesy of Ime Udoka and his Celtics. We’ll have to see if the Cs follow through on Monday, or if it was all talks.
