Put a fork in the Bucks

With 9-games left in the regular season, the Milwaukee Bucks dealt themselves a major blow in their chase for a spot in the NBA’s post-season.

The Bucks missed their last 11-shots on Monday night and fell to the Charlotte Bobcats 87-86 in Charlotte.  The loss dropped the Bucks to 3-games behind Indiana for the 8th and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.  They’re also 2-games behind Charlotte, who is also in the mix.

Brandon Jennings and Andrew Bogut scored 26-points each, but the Bucks let a 9-point fourth quarter lead slip away.

The Bucks travel to Toronto to face the Raptors on Wednesday night.
