The Milwaukee Bucks and Boston Celtics will wrap up their first round series in a winner takes all Game 7 on Saturday night in TD Garden.
Between preseason, the regular season and the playoffs up until this point, the Milwaukee Bucks have played 92 games this season, and so on Saturday night it will come down to game 93.
As the Bucks head to TD Garden one more time to play the Boston Celtics in what should be an enthralling Game 7, they have the chance to take a colossal step forward in their development and banish years of demons for the franchise overall.
Yet to do that they’ll need to overcome an immensely competitive, driven and resilient Boston team, representing the NBA franchise whose history is most steeped in success.
