Recap/Box Score/Enemy Sometimes it’s just a quarter, sometimes a half, sometimes three quarters, but rarely this season have the Bucks been able to put together 48 minutes of their best basketball against good teams. Wednesday night would be no different. After taking a 51-43 lead into halftime, they made just 31% of their shots in [...]
Enemy: 48 Minutes of Hell Point Guard Keyon Dooling vs. Tony Parker It seems like none of the Spurs ever slow down. Parker is again hitting better than 50% of his shots from the field this season, an incredible number for the average point guard, but typical for Parker, who once led the league in [...]
Over at Hardwood Paroxysm, Rob Mahoney takes a loot at Manu Ginobili’s final play from another angle in his Have Ball Will Travel series and clarifies things.
