The Boston Celtics are soon to take on the reigning NBA champions in the 2022 Eastern Conference Semifinals after beating up on the Brooklyn Nets to get the sweep in the first round. But unlike the Nets, the Milwaukee Bucks are no slouch on the defensive end of the court, and could be just as dangerous or even more so putting points on the board as well.
How are the Celtics going to have to adapt their play if they want to have a shot at making the Eastern Conference Finals? What will the Bucks be looking to do against Boston? Perhaps even more importantly, how will the absence of All-Star Bucks forward Khris Middleton affect the series — and how much should we worry about star Celtics wing Jaylen Brown’s hamstring tightness?
To answer all these questions and more, we invited on The Athletic’s Jared Weiss to talk all things tactics between these two East juggernauts on the latest episode of the CLNS Media “Celtics Lab” podcast.
