A memory of Christmas brought him Boston Celtics a Milwaukee Bucksand not exactly a good one. The Celtics won 149-99 on the road in the house of those from Wisconsin and they not only approached the top of the Eastern Conferencebut they also achieved the largest victory in the history between these teams.
Two games apart, Boston cut the distance, the escort from the East, with five games ahead in the Regular Phase, but also won the tiebreaker in the mutual crossing. That is to say, it will be enough for Boston to achieve two more victories than Milwaukee in what remains of the season to finish as the first in the East and take home advantage in the Playoffs.
Without even playing the last quarter Jayson Tatum scored 40 points in one of his best performances of his career from the perimeter: 8-10 on triples. Jaylen Brown he accompanied him with 30 goals.

76-118 (9:40) – Brown and Tatum went to rest and Antetokounmpo, Middleton and Holiday had already done it before in the third quarter. Everything is already defined in this meeting and Milwaukee for now does not even discount in this context.
Beginning of the last quarter.
End of the third quarter: Boston looks capable of going for a historic win if it wanted to today, though the fourth quarter will likely be left to the reserves. The Celtics win 114-74 after another quarter of a tremendous beating built from attack and defense, already with Tatum at 40 points.

61-93 (5:45) – In an already sluggish game, Milwaukee has begun to find their shots and score easier, but they don’t make an effort to stop Boston on the other side and a historic comeback seems impossible, as does improving the image given. Smart, with 10 points, is fifth for the Celtics in double digits.
53-83 (8:55) – Khris Middleton took a technical foul for the protest amid his frustration, already with Milwaukee 30 points behind Boston in a game in which the Bucks can’t seem to even make up the score. There is a huge difference even in energy between one team and the other.
Beginning of the third quarter.
End of the second quarter: Boston did not stop and left with a 28-point difference and 75 points scored at halftime, winning 75-47. To the 42 goals scored between Tatum and Brown, another 12 from Horford and 10 from Brogdon were added, against a Milwaukee in its worst version of the season.
36-61 (2:52) – Boston’s lead continues to extend, now to a maximum of 25 points. With 50% in triples, great ball handling and also dominance in the paint, Boston doesn’t even allow Milwaukee to take advantage of the work they are doing from the offensive rebound, a section in which the Bucks have 9 units.

30-52 (6:29) – It’s a real beating for the Celtics, who came out with all the determination necessary to fight for first place in the East. Now Tatum maintains the offensive rhythm that he achieved at the end of the first quarter and has 17 points, while Brown has 18 and between the two they surpass all the Bucks. Antetokounmpo is being totally limited, with 3-10 from the field and without much defensive impact.
The second quarter began.
End of the first quarter: Boston wins 34-26, with Brown staying at those 17 points and Tatum appearing with five goals in the final minute, after receiving an impressive block from Antetokounmpo. The Bucks, too frustrated with the 3-pointer, were uncomfortable in the first quarter.
21-25 (2:38) – Jaylen Brown’s first quarter is being hellish: the Celtics forward has already accumulated 17 points, with 3-3 in triples, without losses and just two missed attempts in the middle distance. Milwaukee ends up giving him the shot and suffers it, while the Bucks themselves are 5-11 from outside the paint.
