Los Angeles Lakers (9-5) goes for 5th Straight Wins Against Milwaukee Bucks (4-7)
LOS ANGELES (Ticker) Nov 30--Los Angeles Lakers will try to extend their winning streak to 5 as they visit the Milwaukee Bucks in Bradley Center. Lakers and Bucks played last week were the Lakers won, 80-73. Lakers showed in that game their best defensive job so far in this season. Milwaukee Bucks was held to 12 points in the 1st quarter and also held scoreless for almost 5 minutes in the last quarter.
“They've just on groove defensively the last time we met. They forced to took forced or hurried shots. They were quicker in rotating defensively and never gave us a good look at the basket. ”, Coach Porter said.
Milwauke Bucks won in their last game after 5 consecutive losses. Van Horn scored 26 points in that game and Mason came off the bench to scored 13 points. Rip Hamilton was limited to just 9 points. On the other hand, Los Angeles Lakers are coming from back to back double overtime game against the Kings and Hornets. Fatigue maybe a factor in this game.
“Yes, I'm also worried about that. Playing 2 straight games that went both to double overtime, fatigue and stamina will be a concern for us. Also the last time wwe hit the road we lost 3 straight games. We also have to face the Bulls tomorrow. Bench players will need to step up coz our starters are all tired.", said Larry Smith, Lakers Assistant Coach.
Tonight's Key Matchup:
Kobe Bryant vs. Michael Redd
The last time they met, Redd was not 100% but still gave Bryant a run for his money as he fought toe to toe with Bryant in that game. Redd's injury was now completely healed and we might see a good shootout match-up between this 2 all-star guard. Bryant average almost 30 pus points in that 2 double overtime game. But as i said earlier,fatigue might affect Bryant.
Probable Starters:

C-Chris Mihm - (11.6 PPG, 10.5 RPG)
PF-Lamar Odom- (21.6 PPG, 11 RPG)
SF- Caron Butler- (11.8 PPG, 5.3 RPG)

damn man you lost to the bulls, deng was amazing, and i can see why he's good. i am using him in my ps2 dynasty, and he's making his threes and doing everything
Tue Dec 07, 2004 6:51 pm
i already finished playing 2 games (GS and PHO) and will play the next game. I already have the recaps and other stuff but like other dynasters, im also in the process of not putting more details coz lack of comments from others. don't worry, i will continue my dynasty, still post about my dynasty. but i might not post a detail one.
most of us dynasters were lacking the inspirations to continue our own dynasty.
Wed Dec 08, 2004 5:46 am

don't worry, i will continue this but maybe not that detailed as my previous post. i maybe tone down a little in posting but i will definitely continue this. I/we may have some great ideas like a "espn news' or "magazine articles" but maybe will not post it coz no one cares anymore.
so i will still need your cyberface. and also for those other who want to be in my dynasty. maybe in my second season, people will be more interest since they were on my dynasty.
