    This win today honestly would have me believing in this season. If we lose I think it’s just another season stuck in that dreaded middle not good enough for a decent playoff run and not good enough for the lottery

    Did you mean Sam Cassell? I don’t remember Rice being a Buck. I could be wrong though.

    I remember the last time I saw the All-Time winningest clubs in the NBA list, the Bucks are up there. They were very good back in the day.

    I was thinking more of the Terry Cummings, Sydney Moncrief, Rickey Pierce teams.

    We always play like garbage against the Bucks - home or away. Sure would be nice to stop that trend.

    You're right...it was Michael Redd not Rice...also Tim Thomas, Sam Cassell and Greg Anthony

    I don't have a good feeling about this one. Greek freak will score at will and Stotts will refuse to double. On paper it looks like we have guys who can guard him. Aminu/Collins. We cannot afford a bad shooting night.

    That game in MIL last year was painful. We kept letting ET get destroyed by Giannis alone for like 15 straight possessions.

    That's like playing into an expected losing streak.

    The Harkless “Knee Soreness “ is getting old. Put him out of his misery. Not sure how they should handle it but my thinking is it’s getting time to shut him down and start thinking replacement?

    This is the case for nearly every team in the league.

    So thank the NBA.

    I'm ready for our typical game against this Milwaukee team. You know, where we struggle against their length and Stotts refuses to try anything to adapt to it. Greek guy gets 20 FTAs if we attempt to guard him in the paint, while he's allowed to change his pivot foot 5 times after picking up his dribble on every other drive. And yet we'll probably hit enough tough shots to stay in it until the end.
