The Bango picture reminds me of an old Far Side comic strip that listed a medical guide for horses that for each condition recommended "Shoot". Can't imagine that a Bucks HMO is any better.

Does anyone know why every team in the NBA is wearing those white t-shirts on the bench right now?

^^^I have to agree. Keep shooting till you go dry right now my man. Atleast there in the flow of the offense right now. I just hope he knows his limit.
I WISH WE COULD PLAY SOME D. Its pathetic

^^^ He also beat a defender with a pump fake from outside the arc before driving to the basket earlier. He knows what he's doing right now.

I know right that pump fake actually showed some intelligence, u dont see that very often from josh. His dribble looks a little better, but hes still so goofy. Josh also needs to get more touches, hes very efficent .
That ugly girl ref is terrible, and ive never liked the games shes called. SHES A BIT#H. Josh is also acting like one to. When he doesnt get a call its like hes a little kid again. Its funny.
This defense is so so so bad. It looks like we dont care.

Josh really needs to stop crying about every no call he thinks he deserves! Just shut up and play! I cant even count how many times this year the other team has had 5 on 4 because he was in the backcourt bitching

Maybe Joe broke out of his slump tonight. 30 pts on 10-18 with 8 boards, and 3 assists. Granted the Bucks are a horrible defensive team and a bad team in general hopefully Joe has awoken from his spring time sleep.
Also JOsh with another great game 21 pts on 5-8 from the field and 10-14 from the line with 7 boards and 2 blocks.
Bibby with 22 and Alford with 19.
Great game all around. Got the ugly win, and it was nice to see Joe and Mike step in the clutch.

4 games left in the season and the Hawks still haven't learned. Just because you get a decent lead doesn't mean you stop passing the ball. We were constantly whipping the ball around the perimeter for open shots and just stopped in the 4th quarter for some reason. I guess I can't complain too much since we won our last two meaningful regular season road games of the year. It hasn't been pretty but it looks like the Hawks did what they needed to do to make the game vs Miami meaningless which is the best scenario we could have hoped for.

Weird game. We're down big. We're up big. They come back to tie late. The guys pull away to win it comfortably.
Some good things to call out:
Great game by Joe. Got to double digit free throws from Joe and Josh. Extremely efficient game from Al (7-8 FG 5-6 FT). Mo Evans turning up the D in the 2nd half to neutralize Richard Jefferson. Bibby actually doing some play making with 8 dimes and hitting a big 3 late after shooting a poor percentage early in the night.
Got to second that point about Josh showing more intelligence in his offensive play. He could have launched another 3 late with the game tied, but realized that the dish to Bibby was the better play. Earlier he used a shot fake from 3 to lead to a drive and dish to Al for a layup (he was fouled and made it the 2 at the line). Those plays showed me that he isn't firing 3s in over confidence, but actually is expanding his game.
Also as much as I dislike Violet Palmer (she's not a very good official), she was right to T up Josh. I've been expecting him to get technicals for the last month as his complaining about not getting foul calls has been getting extremely demonstrative. On the bright side he didn't lose it and get run. Josh please learn how and when to complain without looking like an petulant child.
All in all, way to go guys.

Two more things, doesn't Al Horford look great running the floor and finishing on the break?
and
Was that the most awkward bull-like charge of the season when Dan Gadzuric flatten Josh early in the game? Josh didn't have to try to draw the charge. He had no chance to move.

It looked like Gadzuric headbutted Josh in the chest, it was hilarious.
Nnothing is better than the big man running the floor. Hes a good finisher and sure can run. I would like to see Josh throw down some sick windmills or something instead of these lazy layup/dunks. It would energize him more and the team would sure take notice.
Im not gonna complain about a win on the road which we cant seem to get consistently.
^^^^I second waht you said about Josh becoming smarter. There was about 2 seconds left on the shot clock and he passes to Bibby for him to knock it down. Hopefully all this will continue.
