Game Thread #31: Vs. Bucks

This will be my final game thread for a while, because I'm going away for New Year and ATS is back. Hopefully the Spurs won't let me down, since I've previewed nothing but wins so far. Then again, the Spurs love to crush my tiny, black heart.
Winning like that against the Grizzlies counts as half-a-win, doesn't it? Don't worry, though - we face them again on January 2nd. I'm sure it'll only take us 1 overtime to put them in the ground.
Let's get right to it:

Keys To The Game
Some other readingGoogle says that the Bucks have a strong online fanbase, and there're some quality sites you can visit if you want to read their side of the story:
Other things of possible interestFor post-game quotes and a video recap of last game against the Grizzlies, check out Spurs.com. You might also want to check out yesterday's practice report, that starts off with Mace's ever-so-round face showing a big grin. I know there's some sort of feud between Stampler and the husband of Spurstalk's owner, timvp, but regardless of that it's a great forum, and incredibly active. Like in most open forums, the idiot quota is high, so I prefer close-knit blogs like PTR, but the sheer number of members assures that lots of interesting posts make it to ST. Among them I found this little gem, a recording of the 2002 Euroleague final between Kinder Bologna (Manu's old team) and Panathinaikos, the European giant. I watched this game, and enjoyed it thoroughly. I recommend it for a number of reasons: - It's downright good basketball, with both teams playing well and taking the lead and momentum at different points of the game. - It features a younger Manu, already with his full arsenal of moves and playing in an MVP fashion for the losing team. He starts the game hot and nearly wins it in the 4th, but is ultimately screwed up by his teammates, who seem to define "unclutchness".
Also at SpursTalk, ChumpDumper did a great post recapping the Austin Toros' last game. Pretty interesting. I for one want more playing time for dark horse Mohammed Abukar. The Buck's Joe Alexander is trying to worm his way into the dunk contest. What I've seen of him hasn't been particularly impressive (except perhaps for this one dunk) but his acting-impaired blurb is fun. And it's sort of impressive that he speaks Mandarin. Here's Joe's site. Last but not least, the Aussie wonder has a blog of his own. Apparently he writes often, and the fans seem to dig it. You need to sign up to read the new entries, though, so he's still a bit of a dbag. Game feedsCheck this game thead at gametime for specific links to good quality feeds.

LatinD is money on previews, no doubt about it. ATS will always be the man, but LD has stepped up incredibly nicely in his absence. Kudos LD. And I love the insight you put into your links. If I had seven free hours this evening I might actually have time to see them all. I guess what I’m saying is, “You might want to sit the next play out, Champ.” Seriously though, awesome work.
SPURS- 101

If you had to compare my threads with LatinD’s, I think you would have to say,“he put me in the ground”. I’m neither jealous nor envious. The discrepancy is just too obvious, even to my wine addled brain.

as an australian, i have a love/hate relationship with bogut (over at the basketballjones i use the name “andrew the former bogut hater” cos i used to name myself “i hate andrew bogut even though i’m australian and have the same first name”). there are times when he seems sorta cool (see the invisible-team-mates-high-fiving), but there are way more times when he comes across as a total dick. he has developed into a decent player – his defense seems better, and as latind stated, he’s playing to his strengths on offense.
nevertheless, i won’t be disappointed if he plays shit today. in fact, i might feel somewhat vindicated in the hate side of my feelings towards him.

I agree with everyone, great preview, LatinD. I’m surprised you were able to discover my passion and life’s work of flamenco fusion music, but I probably shouldn’t have been.
I am going to miss most of the first half, but I can write the recap if no one else wants it. I’ve never been one to let “lack of information” stop me from forming an opinion and attempting to impart knowledge onto others.

The color guy just emphatically declared that the Bucks would get a two for one as Charlie Bell released the three with 24 seconds left. I feel that maybe I ought to write him a letter to explain the concept of the two for one to him.

If you can re-listen to it, I think you will find that he said it was more important to get a good shot and that they would get it.
by Wayne Vore (ATS) on Dec 30, 2008 8:39 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
I think he did say that earlier in the possession, but then as the clock wound down he kept saying “oh yeah, they’ll get a two for one.” Only after the basket had gone in and there were about 20 seconds left on the clock did he say something along the lines of “oh well, they came in just under, but that’s ok.” I think that if you were to relisten to it, perhaps tomorrow after your mixed wine/weed buzz has worn off, you would be forced to agree with my rock-solid analysis.

Lets be honest here. Out of the Timberwolves, Grizzlies, Raptors, Kings and all the other crappy teams we’ve played in the past week the Bucks are playing the best ball. I’m thinking we’re down because Bucks are playing out of their minds. Different than the usual Spurs playing down to the level of their opponent.

Synodontis nigriventris " Upside down catfish". Pretty cool little guys that swim upside down most of the time. Good for community aquariums, and they’re also a small-ish size.
Why does a catfish with a body more suited to bottom dwelling swim upside down in order to get food? Because that’s the way evolution works, motherfucker.

Yes it is, if the dorsal fin is pointing down instead of up like it should.
The real question is, what prompted the fish to swim upside down in the first place? That, my friend, we may never know…

You will be held responsible if we fall into a slide, I can promise you that.
All that said…… I was catching the game on the radio and yes, I was pretty sure it was gonna go down that way after hearing the 1st quarter. Got a pretty good feeling for these things and when we’re playing like ass. Plus, it’s the bucks….. they own us. No worries, we need games like this to hone us.

We let a vintage Finley game go to waste.

A loss to Milwaukee. What a disgrace.

It would be better for the Spurs if Boston wins.
I don’t care what happens in the East during the regular season.

Well, Happy New Year, fellas. :)
Seriously, though, I’m leaving tomorrow and though I’ll try to go to a cybercafe for the next game, I’m not sure I’ll have the time. So in case I don’t post again, have a happy New Year, and I hope you all start the year on the right foot.
Later.

I cannot stand it when NO wins and the Spurs lose!

That pile isn’t nearly big enough.

Two interesting things -
In the past 10 seasons, the Spurs are 8-12 against Milwaukee. Over that same span, the Bucks have swept five season series against the Spurs.
The Bucks shot 68.5 percent in the first quarter, mostly because it’s difficult for any NBA team to miss that many dunks and layups.
