The Bucks scored just 56 points in their road loss to the Celtics, which was a franchise low.

"That's about as humiliating a defeat as you'll ever see," Skiles said. "Right at the jump ball, (Rajon) Rondo got right into Brandon (Jennings) and they got right into our guards.

"They put us back on our heels and just took our competitive fight right away from us. And we pretty much just gave into it."

Milwaukee scored just nine points in the first quarter and 22 in the first half.

"It's a funny league," said Bucks center Andrew Bogut. "Philly beats Boston, we blow out Philly and Boston blows us out. It's just the way the league is.

"We just didn't come out tonight and have good cohesiveness offensively.

"They just keep us to one side of the floor. Our pick-and-rolls didn't work too well against them. When we come off a pick-and-roll we're going toward halfcourt instead of trying to get to the basket.

"I've got to do a better job of being aggressive in the post. Everybody's got to do a better job of getting to the basket and making an aggressive move."
