Halftime: Bucks 46, Celtics 30

Wow.

Lost. Confused. Impatient. Just a few of the adjectives one could use to describe the Celtics first half performance.

Where to begin? The defensive rotations for the most part have been an issue, they're getting out-rebounded 30-20, and they're shooting only 30%. That will simply not get it done.

The lone bright spot was the play of Jared Sullinger, who had his nose in every play off the offensive glass. He has 6 points to go along with 6 rebounds to lead the team.

Brandon Jennings has led an up-tempo offense that has attacking at will and getting a ton of wide open shots for the Bucks.

Darko Milicic made his Celtics debut in the second quarter. To say the least, lets just say it didn't start well. Darko missed his only field goal attempt -- an airball left-hand hook shot -- and turned the ball over twice.

A lot of boo birds so far from the TD Garden crowd. Give them a break, people, it's the second game of the season for a team with nine new players. Let's see what the Celtics can do in the second half. It can't be any worse than the first half, can it?
