Bucks fail to eliminate the Celtics as semifinals series returns to Boston for Game 7 

From the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (full article available here.):


The defending champion Milwaukee Bucks missed a chance to knock out the upstart Celtics with Boston earning a 108-95 victory Friday night at Fiserv Forum to even the best-of-seven series at 3-3.

Game 7 is scheduled for 2:30 p.m. Sunday at TD Garden in Boston. The teams have alternated victories in the series.

“It’s the first team to four,” Bucks coach Mike Budenholzer said. “We want to be the team to four. The back-and-forth, I don’t think a team has won two games in a row this series. It’s just been one after the other. And now it’s the finality.”

Jayson Tatum scored 46 points on 17-for-32 shooting to outduel the Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo, who had 44 and 20 rebounds. Tatum’s hot hand with 16 points in the fourth quarter buried Milwaukee.

“He was unbelievable,” Antetokounmpo said. “He was knocking down shots, tough shots. Getting to his spots. You got to give him credit. He played unbelievable. He led his team to a win
