Peninsula is Mightier / Ira Winderman / Hot Hot Hoops
Finding a balance. I've been on this before, but the team's post-Redd, moderate success while not relying offensively on any one or two players in particular continues to fascinate: The Bucks had six different leading scorers in the last five games of January: Ridnour (27) at Toronto, Delfino (23) vs Minnesota, Bogut (32) at Dallas, Jennings and Bell (18) vs Philadelphia, and Warrick (22) vs Miami.
And they went 3-2 in those five, with both losses (in Toronto after leading big and in Dallas by a point) falling under the close, crushing category. A crowded category this season.
A new month. Despite the six-game west coast road trip and despite losing Mike Redd to injury during that west coast road trip, the Bucks won just as many games in January (8) as they did in the sort of magical month of November. Milwaukee just finished up an 8-7 January, saving the season after a 3-11 December which followed an 8-6 November, and 1-1 October.
The Bucks play nine of 14 on the road in February, but the road on the road isn't terribly intimidating. They travel to winnable venues in Miami twice, New York twice, New Jersey, Indiana, and Detroit. They also travel to tough arenas in Orlando and Atlanta.
Wade and Beasley. Dwyane's 6-20 (.300) shooting night in Milwaukee was his second worst of the season.
Wade's only more inaccurate shooting game came Nov. 25 against Orlando when he shot 6-22. In that game, his final shot was an airball that Michael Beasley dunked home for this bizarre last-second game-winner. Wade didn't have the luxury of Beasley rebounding his misses in Milwaukee, and both players are listed as questionable for tonight's game, along with Mario Chalmers.
Wasting away. The Bucks could use a road win. Skiles, after the win over Miami on Saturday:
The teams ahead of us have some real signature wins on the road. And nothing against the teams we've beaten on the road. But we're going to have to, at some point, if we are going to hang with those teams, go on the road -- we've been right there several games -- but we're going to need to go on the road and win some of those games. And we've got a tough test this week.
The road win over last-place Minnesota, admittedly not signature. Against last-place Golden St., not qualifying either. Versus historically bad last-place New Jersey, also not so much. Indiana is half a game from last place. And Memphis, while a legit team, is also half a game from last place.
It would be worse if the Bucks couldn't boast those road wins, but the problem is that they can only boast those road wins. Winning in Miami might not really be a signature road win either, but it would be awfully useful, as the Heat are now in eighth place in the East, percentage points behind Chicago.

Looking grim...
It always worries me playing a team in back to back games, especially one that you beat, and especially one with a top-5 player in the league. I don’t like the Bucks chances in this one at all, although I will still be watching and hoping.
That said… in order to beat the Heat again the Bucks are going to need to take an extra dose of aggressive. We need to crash the boards, attack the rim with reckless abandon(i would gladly take many offensive fouls to see this as it will also get us to the line and the other team in foul trouble), and generally play inspired basketball.
If I see that Bucks team from the tip I think we have a better chance.

O'Neal out, Beasley back
As Alex laid out, this has been the type of game we’ve lost all year. That either makes us due or doomed to finish 9th or 10th…
Ira Winderman just tweeted that Beasley will be back wearing a brace tonight but O’Neal is out with back spasms. So I’d assume Anthony slides over to center and Beasley comes back at PF.

The Bucks trying to set a record for missed shots in a game
They’re simultaneously shooting really quickly and incredibly poorly (0/10) to start. Awesome.
And apparently even joking about doing a good job of defending Dwyane Wade pisses him off, because he’s now got 8 points in four minutes with three free throws forthcoming.

with wade doing most of the ball handling a pg who can consistently knock down 3s is needed. arroyo is not very accurate from 3

Same was said about Jennings
Redd was more of a slasher when he entered the league. Bruce Bowen couldn’t make a mid-ranger, let alone a three (was the three pt line even in existence then?), upon entrance into the league. A player can work his way to perfection. I just always thought he would be better.

Warrick has a better TS% than Bogut
I wish he’d ration his jumpers more, but I appreciate the fact that you can throw him the ball and have him create a hot. Very un-Buck-like. He’s playing well of late, even in the shooting dept.

we hope you're right!
I think Brandon has top-five PG potential, we’ll see if he can get there. Bogut’s a lot closer to his potential, but I think he’s good enough to be 2nd banana on a 50-win team, especially if his ft% can keep going up.
My sense is we need someone truly dynamic at the wing to become a legit contender, which is why I’m praying we can hit another home run in the draft.

ur record is pretty amazing when ur starters
include charlie bell, delfino, and mbah moute. no offense to any of these players but they are not starting caliber… at least IMO.
if u depend solely on the draft u could be waiting for years.
definitely need to make some moves whether its trade of free agency.

Injury Coverage
As long as he misses half the year consecutively next year, 80% of his contract will be covered. Considering he probably will want to recuperate in the hopes of being fully healthy for free agency, he will most definitely miss at least half of next year and probably all of next year. Which makes his contract next year EXTREMELY attractive in terms of getting rid of a contract in these hard economic times and saving a very large chunk of change next year in itself by having Redd’s contract covered (instead of paying whatever near max salary you just traded away).
Chicks Dig The Long Ball.
by ILuvDaBush on Feb 1, 2010 7:38 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
So,
the Bucks are actually better off keeping him through next year? It seems like 80% would help them, if not on the floor.
by kgaul on Feb 1, 2010 7:42 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
Options
That is also an option. Last year’s trade deadline, the Blazers were in possession of Raef LaFrentz’s injury-covered contract and decided to do just that as well. But something tells me Redd’s contract is going to become as valuable as any trade chip at next year’s deadline.
Chicks Dig The Long Ball.
by ILuvDaBush on Feb 1, 2010 7:46 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
Just for the hope he plays late next season?
by kgaul on Feb 1, 2010 7:48 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
No
Because any trade in the NBA has to match up salary-wise. But while Redd may count $18M next year against the salary cap, he will only cost the Bucks $3.6M. If they made a trade, their TRUE salary just added roughly $15M for at least next year.

Or prorated...
But in basketball, it’s all bottom line. Donald Sterling holds half a monopoly on the second best market in the country and does nothing but cash a check, be covertly racist in his business practices, and hit on greasy D-list models. He’s living a life, but I don’t think it’s Dr. Jerry Buss’s charmed life (The guy is a poker celebrity. He transcends sports like Orel Hershiser).

I just don’t think we can ever get an impact player through free agency…as of now we won’t have cap space until 2011 and even then I’m not sure who you can get without totally overpaying. It’s probably more likely we try to get somebody through a salary-dumping trade.

Love it
Some continuity really seems to be doing this team some good. The Heat did not look like a playoff team these past two, but hopefully that’s a sign for the future…Bucks could use some help from the teams above them in the standings and only the Heat seem ready to provide it.

Very nice road win...
The Bucks ran their offense with great efficiency today and everyone seemed on the same page. Really encouraging win, this team seems to be improving every week or so which is nice to see. We are still in the hunt!!!

Got to see this one live.
On vacation in miami, and got to see the game live. Nice arena in Miami. Too bad 2/3rds of it was empty. What a joke. Couldn’t even buy a 10 dollar ticket at the window. Cheapest thing they had was the 100 dollars at the ticket office at the time of the game. Had to go to a scalper just to get an upper level ticket.
I give my Co-MVP’s to Ridnour and Bell in this one. Bogut played well, but without Ridnour picking apart that zone and Bell hitting those threes in the corner, this one could have turned quickly. Jennings and Delfino didn’t seem to have a handle on how to beat the zone. Brandon probably hasn’t seen enough of it in his young career yet…
