these oddly timed sunday games always worry me a bit and, the bucks are coming off a horrible loss and should be a bit motivated and they defend their home court fairly well. this would be a good game to reassert that great D we saw in those boston games, milwaukee really can't beat you unless those jumpers are falling, as people have pointed out. don't wanna call this a "crucial" game, but it'd be nice to get the W before the back-to-back with the raptors.

There is no secret to contain Redd, just leave him wide open for 3 and he'll miss all day :banghead:

We have gotten better since then and they continue to play worse. With that being said, Vegas must know something. Wizards should win easily but something doesn't feel right.

Milwaukee 98 Washington 93


Dirty ref money went down on the Bucks.

For some reason, I'm half expecting the Wizards to lose the last 3 January games. Wouldn't be the end of the world, but it would be nice to pick this one up.

Should be a good game. If Stevenson can somewhat contain Redd we should win. By the way Redd might be the most underrated player in the NBA right now.

Yeah I was cracking up during the end of the boston- orlando game. Ray allen hit a big three to catch up and left 14 secs on the clock. they all got excited about it. In the meantime I was like 14 secs? with a howard who just catches and dunks? and a turkolu who has been abusing pierce? and rashard playing well? the best they get is a draw. I looked at my computer, looked up and saw turkolu hit the jumper in pierce face. That dude is a beast this year he has such good size.
anyway back to this game. This team has Mo will, Redd, Yi who'll suck and bogut who'll be checked by Haywood. With the expanded options of our bigs we can deploy them well. I think redd is not going to be enough to beat us. Maybe I underrate him and think of him as a shooter instead of a scorer. Either way with our Randy Ayers experience defense we should slow him down with deshawn the same way we did with Ray allen. We only have trouble defending the Lebrons and Turkolu's. Players with sizes were we have no one to defend that size, strength and speed.
I don't care we're winning, we've too many players better than theirs

i have a new laptop and it doesn't let me in the chat anymore. Its a vista, so that might be a problem. Are any other vista users experiencing this?

It cant be the internet connection cuz my previous laptop would allow me to get in the chat.

We start each game but going to Haywood inside and it seem to work well.

Then, after 4 or 5 possessions like that, we just go away from him.

CB with some nice steals. Why in the F does Haywood keep doubling the guards up top??

Ugly. We should be up by 20. Our offense can't be any worse.

Check your firewall settings. PM me and I may be able to help. I am using Vista as well.

Can't pm you. RGM only allows pm's to mods. See if you try to help me with the firewall settings in here. Where can I adjust them?
