Difficult back to back for the Pistons tonight

Question

They pretty much used 7 players last night in knocking off the Heat down in Miami. Expended a lot of energy to get that win. 3 hour plane ride to foggy Milwaukee. These are the exact words of the Bucks announcer last night, "that's a brutal back to back" Jennings played 43 minutes, Monroe played 37, and Smith played 39, Stuckey played 32 minutes.

Bucks played hard in Boston last night, but they throw a lot more than 7 players out there. Rotate 10 guys in and out. 2 hour plane ride from Boston, sleep in own beds.

After knocking off the Heat might be tough for the Pistons to get up for this one.

I'm thinking the Bucks jump on them early and hang on and cover the 4.5 points.

Bucks +4.5

stevenp · Answer

damn, your assessment is incredibly good.  plus the old team that loses on the road coming home versus a team that won the night before.  but i&#x27;m hoping the brandon jennings back at milwaukee factor and that detoit has milwaukee&#x27;s number and that the detroit bigs overwhelm them.  because of foul trouble, drummond only played 22 minutes.  stuckey had 33 off the bench.  detroit played 9 players, btw.  and detroit beat miami while milaukee has lost 12 of 13.   i&#x27;m on detroit money line.  here&#x27;s to both of us winning  in looking at the milwaukee box, your points are even more bolstered.

bucks &#x2B;4.5 and a rare over play here 191.5..good luck

stevenp · Answer

ridnour makes milwaukee better.  but the brandon jennings return and the detroit bigs overwhelming play proved too much.  detroit could gel into a force to be reakoned with.  kyle singler is great off the bench.  and pope has an economical game (i.e., little wasted movement).  it&#x27;s official milwaukee now 1-13 s/u.

with this dog fertilizer eastern conference, the pistons might be a 3 seed this year

Greyhound · Answer

That might be my last bet on the Bucks of the season. They give good effort but they make too many turnovers and can't rebound and give up too many points in the paint. Without even looking at the stats I bet at least half of Detroits' baskets were dunks or layups. Too many second chance points. The Bucks problems are the same, game after game after game.

It's just brutal to have money on that team. I think they make more turnovers then are being picked up in the stats. They kill themselves. They put a tired Detroit team on the free throw line quickly in the first half.

Despite all that, I think they were down 6 with 1:50 left in the game. They had a chance to get within 4.5. Didn't happen.

Greyhound · Answer

Perfect example, 16 seconds left in the first half and the Bucks have the ball and a 7 point lead. They could have had Detroit down 9 going in to half time and what happens? Ridnour lets Jennings steal the ball from him and then fouls him trying to get it back. Instead of being up 9 at half the Bucks are up 5 at half.

You can't win games doing crap like that.

I listen to the games on the radio and you should hear Ted Davis, the Bucks announcer whine and b*tch and moan about this team all game. I can't take it either Ted.

If I were a Bucks fan I would be happy the way the season is going.  Get a top 5 pick and hope you get lucky with a big time player.  All you can do is get one good player a year in the draft and pray.  What do you want Greyhound get the 8th seed and get bounced?  Let the Bucks lose every game and rebuild.
