Can the Boston Celtics pull off a win in Milwaukee against the Bucks in Game 6?

by

For the Boston Celtics to get a chance to right their Game 5 wrongs on their home court of TD Garden and advance to the 2022 NBA Eastern Conference finals, they will first have to beat the Milwaukee Bucks on their own home court of Fiserv Forum.

After a collapse by the team in the contest’s fourth quarter, the Celtics now find themselves having to win the most important tilt of their season on the road in front of a hostile crowd in order to avoid being sent fishing this coming Friday night. Do they have what it takes to beat a determined Bucks squad led by star forward Giannis Antetokounmpo in Milwaukee?

The hosts of ESPN’s “First Take” recently debated whether Boston had the mettle to pull off such a big ask.
