FEAR THE DEER?
Bucks start the season with loss to the Hornets
"We came out the gates swinging, and even went into halftime with a 1 point lead, 33-32. Cp3 and the Hornets, answered tho, outscoring us 31-22. We didn't match up well with New Orleans. Their defense was superb, ours wasnt so great. Salmons had trouble guarding Marcus Thornton, who had an excellent game, dropping 27 points.
We have high hopes for the season, and to come out and lose the opener to a team that we should be defeating is a little bit dissappointing. We couldnt keep them off the glass, both Okafor and David West recorded double digit rebounding marks. If you can't control the boards, you cant expect to win basketball games.
Brandon (Jennings) had a great game, can't ask for more from our 2nd year point guard. 25 points and 8 assists, and he did an excellent job on Chris Paul. In the future we're going to need to get Bogut the ball more, 8 points off 8 attempts just isnt enough for a player as talented as him. - Coach Scott Skiles
Final Score - Bucks - 74, Hornets - 84
