The Bucks realize that home court guarantees nothing in Game 6. "We made it tougher on ourselves now," Celtics coach Ime Udoka said after the loss. Most of those moments in Game 5 belonged to Antetokounmpo, whose 27 shots included a critical 3-pointer with 1:40 to go and Milwaukee down by six. But it's been third-seeded Milwaukee that's walked away with two- and three-point triumphs in the series' two tightest games in Game 3 and 5, respectively. It's not about how many points you score. "It's not about how many shots you make.

It’s a disheartening loss for Boston, who seemed primed to be within one game of the Eastern Conference Finals before the Bucks rallied. Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 40 points and Jrue Holiday added 24 (and some clutch defense) as the Bucks erased a 14-point, fourth-quarter deficit to defeat the Celtics in Game 5 and take a 3-2 series lead.

But Tatum countered with a fadeaway from the baseline as the shot clock expired to make it 87-81 Celtics. Connaughton then swished a three from the left corner to make it a six-point game, 84-78, with 9:47 to play. He then made the free throw to make it a 59-48 game. At the 8:42 mark, Antetokounmpo swished an above-the-break three from 28-feet to make it 84-81. During the stop in play, Portis's three got ruled a two as the officials saw he had a foot on the line. He followed that by earning a trip to the charity stripe, where he went 2/2, giving Boston a 53-43 lead it took into halftime. Antetokounmpo came back with a monster jam, to the home crowd's delight. It was a blocking call the Celtics decided to challenge. With 44.8 seconds left, Tatum hit another three, bringing to him 3/3 from beyond the arc, and it gave the Celtics a 28-26 advantage. Antetokounmpo got inadvertently hit in the face by Brown in the process, but he laid on the court long enough to earn a delay of game violation. Brown drilled a three, and the Celtics took a 38-30 lead. It also extended the Celtics another opportunity to show their character and for Jayson Tatum, in particular, to deliver a performance that will get etched into his legacy.

3 reasons why Game 7 of Bucks vs. Celtics will be an all-time playoff ... (Sporting News)

Game 7 between the Milwaukee Bucks and Boston Celtics is going to be one for the ages.

And in 2005, the Antoine Walker and Pierce-led Celtics got absolutely blown out by the Indiana Pacers, 97-70, in a first-round Game 7 matchup. In 2009, the Celtics lost by 19 points to the eventual Eastern Conference champion Orlando Magic at home in Game 7. But thanks to the superstar play of Pierce and Allen, the Celtics closed things out down the stretch and secured the win for Boston. That year also featured a Game 7 between the Hawks and Celtics in the first round. He also became the first player since Hall of Fame big man Shaquille O'Neal to have 40-plus points and 20 rebounds in a playoff game, finishing with a whopping 44 points and 20 rebounds. The former NBA big man bellowed those words when his Atlanta Hawks forced a Game 7 against the eventual champion Boston Celtics in their 2008 first-round matchup.

Celtics vs. Bucks - Game Recap - May 13, 2022 - ESPN (ESPN)

Lanier played for the Bucks from 1980-84, and his No. 16 jersey hangs from the Fiserv Forum rafters. Tatum said he was thinking about that Game 5 collapse as the Bucks started to rally. The Celtics played without forward/center Robert Williams for a third straight game. After that 8-0 Bucks spurt, Tatum scored the Celtics’ next 11 points. Antetokounmpo made both free throws to start an 8-0 run that got the Bucks back into the game. “We had the right resolve,” Celtics coach Ime Udoka said. You’ve got to go and find a way to get that fourth win and win the series. Boston led 84-70 in the opening minute of the fourth quarter and was up 84-73 when officials ruled Grant Williams had drawn a charge for Antetokounmpo’s fifth foul. Milwaukee was missing three-time All-Star forward Khris Middleton for a ninth consecutive game. Our season was on the line.” Jaylen Brown added 22 points for the Celtics, who capitalized on their superiority from 3-point range. Boston showed its grit by bouncing back two nights after blowing a 14-point, fourth-quarter lead in a 110-107 Game 5 home loss.

Tatum, however, has more dependable offensive help in Brown and Smart and I would bet on a big Al Horford game, too. James Harden took two shots in the second half of Philly's season-ending loss on Thursday. He entered Game 6 shooting just 40 percent for the series, but he wasn't going to go out quietly. I was really late to the Giannis bandwagon. Think about the history of the Boston Celtics, and Tatum is now just the second player in franchise history, joining Sam Jones, to post multiple 45-point playoff games. For that reason, I want to give the Bucks a slight edge in Game 7, Boston's home-court advantage notwithstanding. Tatum's Celtics got the win, sending this series to a Game 7 on Sunday.

The winner will face the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference finals.

If he slays this specific Celtics team with the No. 1 defense and more options to throw at him than any other opponent, we're going to have to acknowledge that this isn't just a Hall of Famer we're talking about, but someone with the potential to crack the pantheon. If he does so again in Game 7, we'll have to start wondering when his time as the NBA's best player will come. Celtics: The Bucks have the best player in the world. But Jayson Tatum dispatched another "best player in the world" in the first round when he swept Kevin Durant. His bout with Antetokounmpo hasn't been so one-sided. That pattern would seemingly favor the Bucks, coming off a disappointing home loss to the Celtics in Friday's Game 6, but history suggests that their best chance at winning this thing may have slipped away. That decision could come back to haunt them on Sunday, but they have the best player in the world, and Giannis Antetokounmpo won't go down without a fight.

Milwaukee Bucks vs. Boston Celtics Game 7: Three keys to watch for (NBC Sports)

“Good old Game 7. Beautiful.” That was how Giannis Antetokounmpo described the final step in what has been “the real NBA Finals” — the highest level of play ...

Brown and Holidays have come up big all series, but players tend to get tight in Game 7s. Which team can control the pace of the game will determine a lot. Holiday, forced into a larger playmaking role with Middelton out, has averaged 21 points, 6.2 rebounds and 6 assists a game, plus he has played strong defense (he had the critical block then steal from Marcus Smart at the end of Game 5). The Bucks have thrived when they can get stops and run — particularly when they force turnovers. This is where they miss Khris Middleton ( who is not expected to play in Game 7 due to his sprained knee). Game 7 Sunday in Boston — 3:30 p.m. Eastern on ABC — will be a barnburner.
