Crawford leads Celtics to 108-100 win over Bucks

BOSTON (AP) Jordan Crawford says the young Boston Celtics have a few things to learn about finishing out close games.

Crawford took over the role of teacher Tuesday night, scoring 15 of his 25 points in the fourth quarter to help the Celtics hold off the Milwaukee Bucks 108-100.

"We've just got to learn to stay focused and pull out these wins - grind them out," said Crawford, who was 5 for 5 from the field in the fourth, including three 3-pointers.
