Milwaukee Bucks Game Preview: Oct. 26 vs Boston Celtics
By Adam McGee
Finale
On a night that’s bound to be filled with distraction, excitement and emotion for the Bucks, it’s going to be vital to remain focused on their business, in spite of the unusual surroundings.
In the 12,700 capacity building, both teams will be facing a more intimate setting than they’re generally accustomed to, and if the Bucks can get off to a fast start, a deafening noise could help to carry them through the remainder of the 48 minutes.
Still, for the Celtics this is just another game, and playing without the pressure the Bucks will have to mark the occasion should allow them to put up a stern challenge. All of the ingredients are there for this to be not just a special night, but a great game too.
