Well, for some reason d00d hasn't done a preview, and it's too late now, so here's a thread to post anything relating to the game in. - Ray is very doubtful, Flip to start. - Jerome and Danny should be back. - I would expect Nick to start again, but you never know. - Evans, Gadzuric and Fort are statistically the three most effective rebounders in the league. - Milwaukee have won two of their last 16 games at the Key.
I like to see Damien Wilkins out there - I luck his all out hustle and defense. Maybe we should put him on Redd.
Well we're up 50-43 at the half, after being up double figures for most of the period. Sweet Lew has 17 points (five treys), while Luke has 14. We are getting a glut of offensive boards and have 14 assists on our 19 field goals. The ball movement is very nice.
I was about to come on here and grumble about how we're only leading by two after three periods against a team starting Anthony Goldwire. Then Flip hits from halfcourt on the buzzer!
Anybody see Jerome James go completely off balance trying to control the ball, regain composure and fire an airball that was short by about 2 feet? I busted up laughing.

Good win for the Supes, Bucks seem to be like GS or the Clippers, they have some 6-6 guys who can slash to the hoop and give us problems.
Not the type of game the Supes need to get ready for the playoffs. Everybody on the Bucks besides their two stars seems to have pretty much given up the season, and they didn't put up much of a fight. Against a better team, we would have lost our lead easily. Flip needs to stop settling for jump shots against zone defense. When he does it, his whole game turns ugly, but he doesn't even try to penetrate. I can understand not jumping into a mass of three players, but if you don't try you won't get anything at all.
Flip struggled throughout the 1st half. He is so good taking it to the rim or pulling up suddenly for a midrange jumper, I wonder why he settled for the outside shot so much? He needs to take them, but if they aren't falling he needs to switch it up a little and get his rythm back. Luke bailed us out with a much better game than his average.
