<div class="quote_poster">Quoting King James:</div><div class="quote_post">They better make it, stats, wins, fan base...hard to go against these 2.</div> True, but with Steph being in the East as a Knick, the NBA might feel that in the best interest of the NBA, they would need to put a knick in the all-star game which would make it much more difficult for both to make it.
On to the game, Thomas looks to be 50/50 for this game, but not sure it would be a good idea to play him because he would have either Williams or James to deal with in the paint all night. Desmond Mason is now the wild card in this basketball game, his play will tell if this game is won, or lost.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Crossover:</div><div class="quote_post">Gimme by Bucks by 6, Bob.</div> Going with the Vegas line eh? Safe bet, it's a very fair bet.
I think the Bucks will win this, they have been solid on their home court. Bucks by 7, never go exactly with the Vegas line.
Bucks up 25/24 after one Tim Thomas is playing and did start (6 and an assist) James has 5 and a board Redd has 8 Z has 6 and 7 Skinner has 4 and 7 Ford has 7 assists
Carlos Boozer has just had a major change statistically, instead off dominating the boards and scoring, he's got 2 fouls in 2 minutes, and that's it. 10 minutes left in the 2nd, if the Cavs are to win this, Boozer must play well.
Ford is dishing out a lot of passes. I wanna see him shooting a little more, though. Good job from Redd so far.

What a terrble 3rd fould call on James under the basket, glad we hit 2 straight 3's to keep the lead. Cleveland 40, Milwaukee 38 2nd Qtr 6:31
This looks like a good game and it should be close until the end. Ford is really playing well, he must be dissapointed.
Bucks up 57/53 @ the half Redd has 15 James has 8, 2, and 1 McInnis has 9, 2, and 1 Z has 6, 8, and 1 Boozer has 7, 3, and 1 Williams has 6, 4, and 2 Ford has 8 assists Thomas has 10, 3, and 3 Bucks shooting 51.1% to the Cavs 45.7% Bucks have just 3 turnovers to the Cavs 8
Redd had 5 lightly quick points to end the half,he was sitting on the bench most of the 2nd quarter.When this guy is on,nothing can stop him.

Ford has 4, 4, and 10. And whats more impressive is he has no TO's still. And he didn't make the rookie challenge for...?

Anyone see that break away James dunk? His head was at the rim. Bad ankle my ass, lol. Bucks up 81/77 after 3 James has 18, 3, and 2 Redd has 22 and 2 assists Ford has 4, 4, and 10 Boozer has 17, 4, and 2 Z has 8, 10, and 2 Skinner has 13 and 10
Looks like the Bucks are on their way to winning this game.The Cavs are reminding me of their times earlier in the season when they were chucking up shots and having trouble closing out games.

Too many jump shots and not attacking the basket, Cavs have to forget the bad calls and keep driving.
101/96 Bucks take it Redd had 24, 1, and 2 Ford had 8, 6, and 10 James had 20, 8, and 3, in a very long night where he looked tired, was in foul trouble all night, and shot just 7-25 from the field. Wow is it tough to play @ the Bradley Center.
