Who is going to win??

Our 30-32 Wizards?

PG: Antonio Daniels :)
SG: DeShawn Stevenson :)
SF: Antawn Jamison :)
PF: Darius Songaila :)
C: Brendan Haywood :)

Honorable Mention: Andray Blatche



Or those raskley Bucks?

PG: Royal Ivey :-?
SG: Michael Redd :banghead:
SF: Desmond Mason :wavefinger:
PF: Charlie Villanueva :crazy:
C: Andrew Bogut :roll:

Honorable Mention: 30 Year Old Bango, their Mascot who recently celebrated its birthday (Thanks Yahoo Sports News for that valuable tidbit of information). Happy B Day, Bango! Let us give you a real nice gift!


Matchup of the Night:
Royal Ivey v. Antonio Daniels
A relatively unknown player playing against the Wiz? He's guarenteed at least 25 points. Let's just try to limit everyone else (and keep Ivey under 30 if possible)

X-Factor(s) for our Wizards:
Andray Blatche, Nick Young, and Roger Mason Jr.
We need 15 from these productive-as-of-late bench players. The Buck's offense is no joke, but their defense is, so if we attack, we can find an easy shot for our lesser known players, to maybe cancel out Royal Ivey and the player's we are guaranteed to underestimate.

Happy 311 Day y'all!

I predict a Win, by 10.

Thanks for the game thread. This format would have worked vs. the Rockets, with the finger-wagging emoticon next to Mutumbo's name.

The only the way the Bucks win is if Villa gets off to a hot start. Push him around early on, and he'll sulk the rest of the game. Speaking of sulking, there's talk in Milwaukee that Bogut has been blatantly dogging it. Haywood usually handles him well, anyway. And Stevenson can keep Redd under 40.

But watch out for Storey and Ruffin! :football:

Unfortunately the paper up there ran some article questioning whether or not he was dogging it so I think he will come out pretty fired up.

What? No mention of Michael Ruffin by the OP? Your former gracious son will come back to haunt you guys tonight with 0 points and 8 rebounds in 5 minutes.

8 rebounds in your dreams.

I have to admit though, he's having his best scoring season in 4 years.

04-05 1.4
05-06 1.4
06-07 0.6
07-08 1.6

Ruffin is the key to the game. He is a defensive force and averaging almost 4 blks a game and 2 steals. If Jamison can shake him and have a decent game then we should win if not it's just another loss at the hands of Michael Ruffin.

Good start from Antawn. I'm expecting a big game from him considering there's no good defensive big man in Milwaukee's starting lineup.

Ugh, Antawn was being guarded by Royal Ivey (I think) on that last possession of the 1st quarter.

DeShawn had 20 seconds to get him the ball so he could easily score, but he, instead, holds it at the top of the key the entire time. Chucks up an off balance shot and misses.

Absolutely sick dunk from Young'N. Then he taints it with a technical.

Nick Young looks real good. His game has so much potential.

Once he learns how to play fundamentally sound defense, he's going to be a very good player.

But he's already improved tenfold with his defense just from the start of the season. So there's plenty of hope.

Oh, and yes, I've been on the Young Bandwagon since draft-day.
