Thus far in their official title defense, the Bucks have passed every test.
After warming up with the Bulls, Milwaukee and the humble Giannis Antetokounmpo turned their attention to the upstart Celtics. It’d be dicey, but even without the services of Khris Middleton, Milwaukee seemed ready for the challenge.
Entering Game 3, in the Bucks’ (-2.5 favorites coming in) raucous home digs, the defending champs seemed beyond loose and relaxed. Why, it’s almost as if they wanted to dance after they took what feels like a commanding 2-1 series lead over Jayton Tatum and Co.
