Back on the road. Redd back in a limited role. Caliber of opponent much better than the past few games.

9:30 tip. ESPN

Redd always brings it against Kobe. To go in the opposite direction of the mood here, I am going to be positive. Redd will blend in and play the team game. We will win.

Hopefully our lineup isn't

Mo
Bell
Yi
Randolph
Bogut

This isn't game 4 of the upcoming 7 game win streak?

That goes without saying.

was gonna ask that, you've got us on a roll MickeyD, don't change anything!

bogut v bynum !!! redd plays well against kobe, that inside out game will be crucial.

If Mo starts at sg, we will win.

time to wake back up people

LA-1,076
MIL-Meh

Fake prediction:

Lakers 10,698
Bucks 8

Real prediction:

Lakers 108
Bucks 93

Hopefully we win so we can get some national praise.

Hopefully the Bucks can keep the game close so the announcers don't start talking about random things instead of how much they suck.

I see the Bucks losing by 5.

Bogut and Yi are going to have to come to play on defense.

Bogut: key to guarding Bynum is keeping him away from the basket early in sets. His range is horrible, but if he gets you into the post, he's got a ton of strength and he can finish with contact.

Yi: DON'T LET ODOM GO LEFT!!! He is so much less effective when he has to dribble going right, and really doesn't look comfortable doing it.

One big worry in this one is our turnovers and their transition points. Lakers seem to do that at will at home. Have to protect the ball.

Have to move the ball and defend in the halfcourt like we have the last few games to even have a chance in this one.

The key is stopping dribble penetration...if Bogut constantly has to step up and pick up Kobe, Bynum will continue to get dunk after dunk, like he has all year...plus I am guessing Kobe will easily get Bogut in foul trouble....good defensive teams can't stop the Laker dribble penetration, what is a horrible perimeter defensive team going to do?

I'm not expecting the Bucks to win this. I just want to see them compete, not get nt an early hole and then pack it in after the first 8 mins.

Just play hard all game and compete.

With the game on ESPN hopefully we dont get blown out and humiliated. We have beat some terrible teams lately but nobody even close to as good as the Lakers are this year. Keep it within 7 or 8 and than make a run at the end of the game.

That's an important point. No offense to all the great bucks fans in this forum but the way we have been playing i don't think we lose this game. Good luck the rest of the season.

I don't think any of us here are expecting to win. We just want to keep it close and not get embarrassed on national TV.

You mean, except the Lakers, this year?
