Bucks showed no mercy trolling Celtics on Twitter after Game 5 win

The Milwaukee Bucks eliminated the Boston Celtics from the second round of the 2019 NBA playoffs with a Game 5 win Wednesday night, and they had fun doing it. And we don't just mean fun on the court.

The Bucks showed no mercy on Twitter following the series-clinching victory. They fired off a few tweets that trolled the Celtics. 

And did the Bucks throw shade at Celtics point guard Kyrie Irving with this tweet?

The Celtics took Game 1 of the series in convincing fashion, but it was all downhill for Boston after that. In fact, the C's became the first team in NBA playoff history to win their first five games and then lose four in a row. 

The Bucks move on to play in the Eastern Conference finals for the first time since 2001, where they'll take on the Toronto Raptors or Philadelphia 76ers. The Celtics have just begun an offseason of uncertainty, one that could bring drastic changes to the franchise.
