Ersanity in its truest form made its debut north of the border in Toronto last night, and did not dissapoint. Ersan Ilyasova again led the way with 31 points (11/16 FG) and 12 rebounds, but had a little help from his friends-- namely Mike Dunleavy (19 points, 7/15 FG) and Drew Gooden (21 points, 7/11 FG). The Bucks got off to a bumpy start, trailing by as many as 12 in the first half, but they managed to cut it to five by the end of the 2nd quarter. 24 game minutes later, the Bucks are just one game out of the 8th spot in the Eastern Conference playoff spot. Who will still be on the team after March 15th, however, remains to be seen.
