This series has been a hard fought battle. This should be a great game 7. The celtics have looked great on offense when they move the ball and genuinely play unselfish. The problem is that they are a young team with guys trying to prove themselves. Tatums decision making in the first half of game 6 was amazing. He moved the ball and didn't force shots and dropped 18. In the second half he made much worse choices, forcing a bunch of difficult shots but still making them. When they get down or the other team makes a run the celtics too often revert to an iso game of difficult shots. These are very hard to make in a game 7 of an exhausting series. Jrue was also on jaylen for much of last game which i expect to change today. Horford and williams both look tired from guarding giannis. The celtics have aslo played their guys more minutes. I don't think they will have their legs when it matters. The bucks are a team with a clear identity where everyone understands their role. This is very valuable in team sports. Giannis is also very smart about changing up how he plays. He was looking to score first and not to pass first the last couple of games. He's also taken a bunch of jump shots and 3s too keep the defense honest. Defenders moving up a couple of feet vs standing in the paint waiting makes a huge difference in giannis' ability to get by them. He does that for these games where he wont waste possessions and will attack the rim and find his guys. These games are chess matches and bucks will have the final move.
Bucks ML +185
ps. I think Grayson and Brooke step up
