Welcome to Lockton and then Bia, your daily NBA podcast, part of the

Lockdown podcast network. I'm David R Millle, the host of lockdown warriors. The Milwaukee

Bucks are looking to extend their season. They might be doing it without Yana said the

Kumpo. Russell Westbrook has been a problem for Houston, but we'll start off today's show by talking about the Boston Celtics who had lost two straight to the Toronto Raptors after taking a two-o lead in the Eastern Conference semifinals, but responded Monday night with the 11189

shillacking of the wraps to take a 3-2 lead in the series.

Boston's lead was as much as 30 at one point before a Toronto surge in the second half kept it to a much more respectable 22 point deficit

All five Celtic scores had a double-digit points led by Jeline Brown's 27 point outing and this is with

Boston's best scorer Jason Tatum continuing to struggle from the field he shot

just 5 and 15 and finished with 18 points thanks mostly to his 8 free throw

attempts we'll get into Boston's legitimacy as 18 points, thanks mostly to his 8 free throw attempts.

We'll get into Boston's legitimacy as a title contender in a second West,

but looking at Toronto tonight, a team that looked really good in the bubble early on

and even swept the Brooklyn Nets in the first series.

I realize they're really just a miracle shot from O. G. Anunabe in game three away from having been eliminated.

Are they done?

Yeah, I'm glad you brought the O. G Nunnies shot because it was sort of obviously a miracle shot and even in that next game,

maybe it was just enough to juice up that team, juice up the Raptors, I mean, to get that Game 4 win and tie up the series, and maybe even enough

just for Boston to sort of, you know, take a breath, take the foot off the gas a little bit in that game 4 too which is why

Toronto was able I think at least to even up the series but Boston at least for the balance

of this whole series has been the better team. They just, they look more

complete, they look like they're executing what they want to execute much better, they

have just sort of this organized system and we make so much of Nick Nurse rolling out the triangle and two and the box and one all these zone schemes everything like that.
