The Celtics looked like a team ready to quit in the first quarter. They were giving up easy buckets, turning the ball over, and allowing offensive rebounds to fall behind by double-digits early. They kept it close, though, going into the half only down by one. Things started to fall apart again in the third quarter with Milwaukee opening up a 10 point lead with 1:33 to go, but Boston outscored Milwaukee 46-28 from there thanks largely to Al Horford. The Celtics salvage the split, regain home court, and play for the series lead Wednesday night in Boston.
