Brook Lopez has successfully made a measly 21.2% of his 3-point shots this season, a sizeable decrease from his 33.6 mark last season.This year, opposing teams have averaged 37.5 three attempts per game (7th-highest in the league) vs. the Celtics, creating a good matchup.Over the last 5 games when they are playing at home, opposing starting Cs have averaged 30.0% on three-pointers (6th-lowest in the league) vs. the Celtics, marking this as a tough matchup.The Boston Celtics have played at the slowest pace-of-play in the league over the last 5 games without the home court advantage, which should lead to decreased opportunities for the Bucks.The Bucks check in as the 2nd-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce additional opportunities for scoring and assists).
