Antetokounmpo leads Bucks over Nets, 111-93

Then the third quarter happened, and the wheels fell off for Brooklyn, again. That’s probably why it hurt so much that they let this one slip through their fingers in the fourth. The Milwaukee Bucks have split their last six home games.

“We just hurt ourselves”. I set myself the right way, looked at the rim and released it. “I think he should be”. Bogdanovic lead all players with his 14 points, Anthony Bennett had a game high 9 first half rebounds, and Brook Lopez with 4 assists. “We’ve got to keep fighting, got to keep working”. For tall people, it’s hard for us to shoot. Despite what was going on we had great togetherness and had an energy about us. He has third 30-point games in a row.

Chris Paul scored 16 and DeAndre Jordan had 15 rebounds for the Clippers, who blew an 18-point lead and fell in double overtime at Brooklyn on Tuesday.

San Antonio is coming off a 107-105 victory over Washington on Friday at the AT&T Center, which hasn’t exactly been a haven for the home team this season. Turns out it was for good.

Against Cleveland on November 29, Antetokounmpo tied his career high with 34 points and added 12 rebounds, five assists, five steals and two blocks.

“The other night was one of those and tonight we made up for it”.

“Matthews was the star of the game, obviously”, Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle said. I took a few days off to rest, doing a blog does take your attention away from everything else so have to get my focus back on this blog.

There’s something about the third quarter that just doesn’t agree with the Nets this season.

Kilpatrick scored his only points of the second half on a layup which gave the Nets a 60-59 advantage with under nine minutes to play in the third. Luckily, they converted just 26.8% from deep, but it is worry to see a team that incorporates 45% of their shot attempts from three be left unchallenged at critical moments.

James finished with 22 points to lead the scoring for the Cavs, ahead of Irving with 20 points at the BMO Harris Bradley Center.

“We gave ourselves a chance”. I don’t care if it goes in or it goes out. His counterpart Henson led the Bucks with 20 points and was a plus-20.

“I think he’s a true pro, a true warrior and a champion”, Kidd said. I think that’s special.

“In Cleveland we had a lot of shooters who like to stay outside and space the floor but these guys are so dynamic and love to slash to the basket so it’s just getting that connection going”. “It’s on me, completely”.

There’s no doubting that without Khris Middleton, this Bucks team is Giannis and Jabari’s to run.

They’re now the two seed in the Western Conference, have a top-10 offense and an upper-half-of-the-league defense, riding the sheer force that is Kawhi Leonard (among others) to an impressive 16-4 mark heading into tonight.

Michael Kidd-Gilchrist added 14 points and Jeremy Lamb had 12 off the bench for the Hornets, who remained in first place in the Southeast Division.
