Tip off is at 5, so its outside of ABC's window, and will be on FSN North as well as NBA LP. These teams are neck and neck in the East right now, this should be a test for the Bucks. They lead the season series 1-0, and would be huge to take it 2-0. I like NJ at home though, Bucks coming off a back to back, bad weather in NY-NJ area, may get in late. Nets 104 Bucks 97
Great preview, but don't you think Maurice Williams should the sixth man. Also Vaughn is the Nets sixth man.
