The Boston Celtics looked great Sunday night against the Milwaukee Bucks, to be sure.
But did Boston show enough to warrant the scorching-hot takes coming from Paul Pierce and Skip Bayless? Probably not.
The Celtics crushed the Bucks in Game 1 of their second-round NBA playoffs series, prompting Pierce to declare the series “over.” And during Monday morning’s “Undisputed” episode, Bayless essentially agreed with the Celtics legend.
Take a look:

Yeah, we might be putting the carriage in front of the horse on this one.
The Celtics and Bucks will meet Tuesday night in Game 2 of their best-of-seven Series. Tip-off at Fiserv Forum is set for 8 p.m. ET.
