Skiles is a wily bastard. The good news is that, even if we suck on defense like we did last night, the Bucks shouldn't approach 100. Of course, the bad news is that, even if we play well offensively, we probably won't either. The Bulls know that they didn't play well last night (and if they didn't know it, I'm sure Thibs has made sure they do by now), and as most elite teams do, they won't play back-to-back "clunkers."
Last game against the Bucks, Feb 26 at Milwaukee 83-75 Bulls. Both teams did not shoot well. Deng 19, Rose 17, Boozer 13. Noah 17 boards.
Bucks announcers, "Could this be a playoff preview?" I remember they said the same thing the last time we played them. Even mentioned as the game progressed how it felt like a playoff game. Bobcats and Bucks are two game out of the #8 spot.
5:18 15-8 Bucks Delfino 5 Bulls 31% Bucks 60% Bucks 8-5 rebounding edge. Bulls shots, not falling yet.
