Game 78 Preview Vs. Milwaukee Bucks
Before we look at tonight’s game, I just wanted to say I am feeling for the Bucks. I am a fan of Bogut (and of Coach Skiles), so I have been watching a lot of their games recently and they have been playing great. I really think that they could have done some damage in the playoffs if Bogut being injured. We would have also gotten to see a great matchup between two premier centers in Bogut and Brook.
With that being said, the Nets are coming off a bit of a disappointing result in a 10 point loss to the Wizards. However they have had 2 days off (while the Bucks are coming off of a battle against the Bulls), and the Nets actually play pretty well coming off of multiple days rest. The Bucks are a terrific defensive team, so the goal here is to not get down if you have some long stretches of scoreless basketball. The Nets also need to keep this game within 3-4 baskets. Anything more than that (even in the first quarter), and the Bucks are too good on the defensive end that they won’t let the Nets back into it. Onto the lineups…
Devin Harris vs. Brandon Jennings
Advantage: Devin Harris
Courtney Lee vs. John Salmons
Advantage: John Salmons
Jarvis Hayes vs. Carlos Delfino
Advantage: Carlos Delfino
Yi vs. Luc Richard Mbah a Moute
Advantage: Luc Richard Mbah a Moute
Brook Lopez vs. Kurt Thomas
Advantage: Brook Lopez
Agreed I like the bucks team team Bogut esp I was looking to their playoff run. Sadly that has been the flaw of this team for a while their two best players (in recent years) are very injury prone ie: Andrew Bogut and Michael Redd.
