Putting my unenviable 1-2 record in game threads (to the best of my knowledge) on the line today.
The Alphabet comes to Tampa tonight with Middleton and Holiday riding shotgun and no one on the limp. The Bucks are starting to round into form after a slow start winning 7 of the last 10 but two of those losses came last week as they went down to the Nets and the Lakers.
The Raps are inching their way to 500 after a poor start. Compounding their woes are a series of injuries to their top players. Both Pascal and now OG are listed as questionable and game time decisions against the Bucks tonight. Kyle Lowry's is not listed on the 1:30 report so it appears unless there is a flare up on his foot injury he is a go. Fan favourite Patrick McCaw remains out and Matt Thomas remains in witness protection at the end of the Raptors bench.
The Bucks are favoured by 7.
Keys to the Game.
For the Raps its to make 3's. Boatloads of them. Coach Bud's teams pack the paint and give you perimeter shots in the belief you won't make enough of them to beat them. They clean the defensive boards with the best of them and limit second chance points. There may be a Matt Thomas sighting tonight.as the Raps go small for longer periods of the game and play 5 out with Boucher at the 5.
For the Bucks they are going to put a big highlight bow on our lack of rim protector and the Alphabet and Jrue Holiday will start out coming down the lane like they are owed big money and can cash in at the basket. Holiday will attempt to break down our interior defense and kick it out to Middleton if we collapse inside.
Its going to be tough. Give the points if both Pascal and OG can't go.
