Boston — Ray Allen and Sam Cassell dominated for Milwaukee while Antoine Walker watched helplessly from the Boston bench.
Allen scored 34 points, Cassell had the second triple-double of his career and the Bucks capitalized on a rare injury to Walker to defeat the Celtics 106-97 Wednesday night.
"Ray had a great roll going," Milwaukee coach George Karl said. "It's great to have a guy like that to go to on the road."
Allen had 14 points in the third quarter when Milwaukee stretched a 56-54 lead to 84-76. After Kansas University product Paul Pierce led a Celtics surge that cut an 11-point deficit to 98-93, Allen hit the Bucks' next two baskets for a 102-95 lead with 1:33 to go.
Cassell had 14 points, 16 assists and 11 rebounds, and Michael Redd added 16 points.
The Bucks shot well despite Boston's defense. They hit 53 percent of their shots and 12 of 24 from three-point range. Allen, 13-for-23 overall, was 5-for-9 on three-pointers.
"We just ran into a buzzsaw with their ability to knock down shots," Boston coach Jim O'Brien said. "We did a nice job of moving the basketball, not quite as nice as they did, though."
Boston, which ended a four-game winning streak, was led by Pierce with 30 points, Walter McCarty with 22 and rookie J.R. Bremer with 18.
"I was able to get some of the shots that (Walker) gets," McCarty said.
