The Milwaukee Bucks kick off their 2017-18 season with a showdown against the Boston Celtics in Boston.

*obnoxious siren noises*

The NBA is back, and even more importantly, Milwaukee Bucks basketball is back! Milwaukee’s season officially tips off on Wednesday evening when the team visits the Boston Celtics.

There is a lot going on in this game, and there will be lots of eyes on both teams, even though their game is not being nationally televised. The Celtics have been one of the most talked-about teams all summer, and the moves they made have them in position to contend for a title for the foreseeable future.

Unfortunately, the Celtics are already without one of their best players. After a gruesome injury in Boston’s first game, Gordon Hayward is going to be out for quite a while. Kyrie Irving and Al Horford will have to carry Boston even more than usual as Hayward recovers.

The Bucks have some storylines of their own going on. Giannis Antetokounmpo is getting serious MVP love, and the season hasn’t even started yet. Kevin Durant thinks he might end up as the best player ever. Fans cannot wait to see how far he can carry Milwaukee this season.

To see which of the two hyped teams will come out on top on Wednesday night, let’s go through a major key for both of them followed by a Celtic to watch. After that it’s time for some score predictions from our staff.
