    I think my boy Darius is going to be shut down by D-Mase, Redd will go for a big game and hopefully Gadzuric brings his A game. I'ma take the bucks by 3 in OT.

    BTW for players to watch why's it say Michael Redd VS Allen Iverson?

    This would be a big win for the Bucks. They can beat the Blazers. I'll be watching.

    Actually the Bucks are much much better than the record that they're having. I think the Bucks play good ball game at home, and Redd will put up some great numbers at home today. Frankly speaking, the Blazers are a better team...
    This might be a close game and let's hope the Bucks can win this in 1 or 2 pts.

    Notes: Michael Redd had a horrible game scoring 4 pts and 2-10 shooting. Dez added 16, Smith had 14 pts, 9 boards, 4 assists, Gadzuric and Kendall Gill added 12. NVE killed the Bucks on his homecoming. The Bucks gave up a season high 12 three pointers. This is loss #5 in a row.
