    Another game? Rockets have been playing about 5 times a week! Hopefully they give Lowry some rest if the game isn't close. Best case scenario we get the W with Kyle, Luis, and K-Mart hovering around the 30 minute mark.

    Bogut and Jennings might kill us.

    LOLZ...Boguts at best will have a decent game, Jennings will shoot 40% as usual.

    This should be a good game. I say the Rockets win a close one.

    Don't be fooled by the Bucks' road record (2-8). Andrew Bogut's missed 5 games this season... all on the road, all MIL losses.

    Keep any eye on Ersan Ilyasova -- he's the x-factor for MIL. He's started 9 games this year & averages around 22 MPG (Lee/Parsons type minutes), but has only scored in double figs 4 times... the Bucks won 3 of those games.

    These 2 teams split last season. In the first meeting, Bogut dropped 24 & 22 (Hayes defending; he feasts on undersized bigs thru 2nd chance pts) to lead MIL to victory. He's never been a dominant offensive center (career avg. just around 12 PPG) and has been banged up this year, which seems like the norm w/ this guy... Dalembert should keep him in check, for the most part, and hopefully Lowry & co. can get him in early foul trouble by attacking & staying active around the cup.

    Interestingly, the Haitian Sensation had a double-double in each of SAC's 2 meetings w/ MIL last season... I think he drops yet another and pushes the streak to 8.

    Also, K-Low must force Jennings right. He has one of the weakest off-hands of any PG in the NBA. When he drives right, he either jacks up a fadeaway mid-range jumper or a floater... every time. VERY predictable & limited going R.

    They got a damn good front line - Bogut, Gooden, Leur, Sanders. Luc is defesive beast inside and outside the paint.

    They got a solid back court too. Jennings, Dunleavy, Uridh, Livngston. Jackson and Delfino on the wings.

    Just Solid.

    Dally needs to contain Bogut and hooptie Jennings can't do one of his random 45 point games and then we should be fine
