Game 75: Bucks vs. Bobcats


King Taharqa

Recommended Posts

The red hot Milwaukee Bucks are in town tonight at TWC Arena to face our Charlotte Bobcats. Led by center Andrew Bogut, rookie sensation Brandon Jennings, veteran journeyman John Salmons, and former Tarheel Jerry Stackhouse, the Bucks have played the best basketball in the NBA since the all-star break. A win tonight on our home floor will not be an easy task against this well coached scrappy team. We will need big performances by our bench tonight as well as good defense from our PGs. With only 8 games left in the regular season, a win tonight puts us at 40 for the season and inches us that much closer to a playoff berth. GO BOBCATS!!!!

It is going to be a very tough game, but I dont think it is a must win.

A loss isnt that big of a deal, but a win would be a huge confidence builder.

I honestly believe we pull this one out tonite, possibly a game winning shot by Stephan Jackson. You heard it here first.

I just want this team to continue to "bring it" night after night. Their biggest weakness, as Gerald put it best, is that they have a difficult time showing up with the level of intensity they need to succeed, unless they play against clubs most critics believe they should loose to like the Cavs or Lakers.

When we play teams like the Lakers, we play at 100%!!!! Against, lesser teams, we fail. I know Milwaukee isn't the 'Nets (who we also struggle with), but it's one of those teams we know we can beat and should beat.

Carlos Delfino (neck, jaw) is expected to play for the Bucks Friday night against Charlotte.

No word on if Delfino is going to play a full complement of minutes after three games off, but it's nice to see him back. Owners were missing the bajillion threes per week that he offers. We're reasonably confident he'll get enough burn to be worth using tonight.

Stephen Jackson (hamstring) will try to play Friday night when the Bobcats play the Bucks.

Jackson strained his hamstring in practice on Tuesday and played Wednesday, though was visibly limping. Assume that he will play, check back before tip-off just in case, and hope that he doesn't aggravate the hamstring.

    • The majority of NFL draft picks don't play all too many snaps lined up directly across from another NFL player, and I don't think many people really realize this. Unless you play a game against one of the 2-4 schools that are putting half their lineup into the NFL each season, most teams who have multiple draft picks, MIGHT only have 2-4 draft picks in any given season. Some skill positions get around 30 players drafted each year, other positions are in the teens to low 20's.  With at least a handful of them coming from non power conference schools too.  So the odds for any WR or CB to get too many games lined up directly against another future draft pick is pretty low. The better odds are that they get lined up against a future NFL player, i.e. a junior or senior WR getting lined up against a freshman or sophomore DB who will get drafted in a couple of years. Then if you take it one step further and look for players who actually play in the NFL and make a difference.   You're basically looking at players drafted in the first 3 rounds of the draft, so a little less than 100 players a year, spread out across all the positions and conferences (which in today's massive conferences, teams have even lower odds of player the teams with more NFL players than ever before).
    • I'm glad they did. Hopefully Colorado can win game 7
    • Geez, I'm shocked SS would do such a thing. Always seemed like a nice guy, guess not.
