Big game tuesday....
Team Milwaukee is led by Brandon Jennings and Team New Jersey is led by Brook Lopez.
Bucks notes:
THE BOGUES BAROMETER – To get a reading on the Bucks fortunes, one can get a good gauge looking at
Milwaukee center Andrew Bogut’s points line. When the Australian big-man tallies 17 or more this season, the club
is 9-1 (with the lone loss coming at Boston). In those games, Bogut has averaged 23.0 points, 12.1 rebounds, 3.0
assists and 2.1 blocks while shooting 61.6 percent from the field (101-164). Milwaukee outscores their foes 100.8
to 94.5 in those tilts and holds the opposition to 42.6 percent shooting. The Bucks have given up 100 point in just
three of those games, one being a double-overtime tilt. See the “Bogut Box” to the right for more on those games.
PASSING THE GREYHOUND – Bucks guard Michael Redd is closing in on several career milestones in this, his 10th
season with Milwaukee. The Ohio State alum is two points shy of passing “The Greyhound” Bob Dandridge
(11,478) for fourth place on the franchise scoring list. Sidney Moncrief is in third place at 11,594. Redd is four
three pointers away from 1,000 for his career and would become the second player in franchise history to connect
on 1,000 three pointers (Ray Allen leads the franchise with 1,051). He has also played 565 games in his career,
four away from passing Glenn Robinson (568) for seventh in team history.
HAK ATTACK – Hakim Warrick has come off the bench to tally 13.3 points (third on the club) over the last four
contests. Warrick has also chipped in with 4.0 boards while knocking down 45.5 percent (20-44)
Nets Notes :
• Brook Lopez is ranked second among all NBA centers in scoring at 18.8 ppg. He also has 14 (20 point, 10 rebound) doubledoubles
