Well guys, I thought this would be a much closer game. When you guys were here in Dec. I think, you played much better. RJ had the ball more often and where he can do some damage. I've never been a Redd fan, and still think you got to trade him. I do not get why the Bucks haven't done it yet. Other than that, CV can score. Now, i know Bogut is a huge part of the Bucks, but there's a huge hole in that paint. You need a consistent PF more than anything IMO. Good luck on the rest of the season.
GO HAWKS.

Are you serious? Look at all of our success with him.

Ironically, our PF has been the most consistent player the past 5 games.. sigh..

on sportscenter they did a little segment with top 5 fun plays to watch from this game and somehow that segment with rj and redd missing layups and then rj getting hit with the pass didn't make it


talk about fixed contests...

Bucks could probably get Zaza back this offseason. He will likely want the MLE. I doubt the Hawks bring him back. I think they want to. We got too many players to re-sign-JJ,Marvin,Bibby,Horford, and Chill is likely to return next year.

No chance. We'll probably lose at least one of CV and Sessions because we'll be right up against the luxury tax.

Would be a great addition for a backup. Didn't we have a choice between giving Gadz and Zaza long term deals but chose Gadz?


Thanks Larry.

Yeah he is. When Ray hit his first NBA 3 and AI threw up his first NBA airball, Jonny Mac was busy whining about the Bucks not keeping the great Marbury ....

Sorta sums up Bucks culture in a way.

This is a .500 team with Bogut and a POS team without him. Why anyone wants either is well beyond my comprehension. Blow this roster to high heaven.

Can't keep blowing the roster to high heaven every season. Redd definately needs to go. This guy is terrible when he is not hitting shots.

I have to say that the guys looked tired tonight. This schedule is catching up with them. 8 more road games. They haven't had two days in a row off since December. Another Away/Home back to back. Bogut being out all month. Very unfortunate. I would love to make an RJ trade though. He either doesn't want to be here or can't play anymore. I find it hard to believe that a guy scoring 22 a game last year has lost it at the age of 28.

That would be a big NO, if they were replaced by solid young players and if said trade(s) strengthen the frontcourt.

Yes, they looked tired, but so did the Hawks.

Why would the Hawks be tired? They had two days off and have played 4 less games this season. The Bucks schedule so far has been unbelievably difficult.

I had the Bucks going 10-8 through this so called easy part. I just didn't see it as that easy. We play 18 games and do not have two days off in a row the entire month. Add in the Bogut injury and 9-9 would be excellent. I still think a win tonight and 3-1 next week is possible yet.

Every season? How many times in the last 10 years have we done it?

I think that all of the travel has hurt the Bucks, but it does not excuse everything.

The Bucks have had six more road games than the Hawks this season. Six trips additional trips in about 12 weeks. That is not an insignificant amount of extra travel, especially when they started out with a pre-season jaunt to China.

This is the NBA, where the inexplicable happens all the time. Going from a one sided blowout over the Mavs to a one sided blowout loss to the Hawks is not unusual. It is just disappointing.

Still, the Bucks are about on track to finish a game or two under .500, near the final playoff spot.
