Boston Celtics have proven their dominance in the Eastern Conference with a decisive 139-118
victory over the Milwaukee Bucks. Led by an explosive performance from Jayson Tatum, who
dropped 41 points and seven rebounds, the Celtics never looked back in a matchup that could
have been a preview of the Eastern Conference Finals. Jayson Tatum was the show’s star, but he
was far from the only Celtic to have an impact. Jaylen Brown had 29 points and four assists.
Despite the lopsided score, Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo made a valiant effort with 27
points, nine rebounds, and three assists in the loss.
Celtics could maintain their position as the top team in the East. With this win, the Celtics
improved to 24-10, while the Bucks dropped to 22-11 and remained a game and a half behind
their rivals in the standings. Tatum’s performance was a pivotal part of this win, as he has been
unstoppable all season.
The Celtics look like a force to be reckoned with in the East and will be a
tough out for any team. It was a thrilling contest between two of the best teams in the East, and
the Celtics proved why they are the top team in the conference. The Bucks have some work to do
to catch their rivals, but with Antetokounmpo leading the way, they are still a threat to make a
deep playoff run.
