I don’t think the defense is what lost this one… It might have something to do with our starters who could not make a shot to save their lives in the first half. At the intermission the Bucks had all of 31 points and somehow were only down 10. Then the 3rd quarter started, the Lakers found their stroke and the Bucks got down by 25. Game over.

Bucks @ Lakers, this might be tough
So tonight the Bucks take on the NBA’s best team, the Los Angelas Lakers. On one hand, this could be a good test. The Bucks are nearly at full strength and have had 3 games together with a good week of practice behind them (practice time was hard to come by on the recent road trip). On the other hand, we are playing the friggin’ Lakers who are on fire, and it might not go well. Either way you can actually watch this game on Fox Sports WI (unlike the last game) and if the Bucks can keep it close, it might be entertaining.
As always the best place for pre-game info is Brew Hoop, which is really the best source for Bucks info all around. Checking Brew Hoop reminded me of the first time we played the Lakers last year, when Michael Redd almost out Kobe’d Kobe. Redd posted 26 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists. If he can do that again, we might have a good shot at this one. Here’s hoping.
