Sabonis will play? I heard he was day-to-day due to hip pains.

89 points isn't great. I get the Bucks have a ln awesome defense, and are probably the best team in the league, but we gotta have a little better showing than that.

The 3 pt shooting was terrible. 30% and 40 attempts, you know it it's not going in the hoop maybe try to get a shot you can make. Of course the Bucks only shot 34% on 44 attempts. It comes down to 1 think the guy named GA. Otherwise they are not better than the Pacers but we have no answer for him and really no other team does either. If you somehow contain him then Middleton, or BroLo or one of their other guys kills you. Look what ex Pacer George Hill did last night.

I thought we did okay on GA. the Lopez brothers and Hill were another matter. but we stayed with them for a half without Dipo and Lamb and beating them in Milwaukee isn't something that anyone is doing this year. Toronto and Miami are coming up though and if we lose both of those games you'd have to say we belong in the six spot this year. the silver lining is the Bucks have a bunch of guys over 30 and we do not. if we keep the group together, time is on our side.

last night Toronto was down 30 in the first minute of the 4th quarter and put up a 47 point quarter to win. this won't be easy.

Let's hope that 4th quarter wore them out for us tonight. Having to make that comeback and then travel to Indy might have an effect.

On that George Hill note, I'm always glad to see ex Pacers playing well.

This game should remind us that just shooting more threes isn't the solution to our issues as some have said in the past (not really here though). We have to find a happy medium as we really do need to be shooting more, but it seemed we just forced it last night.
