Bucks don’t land Smith, get Redick instead (Video)

February 22, 2013 By Bill Scott

The Milwaukee Bucks were the final team that had a chance to land Atlanta Hawks forward Josh Smith.  The Hawks decided to keep Smith and the Bucks were able to pull off a deadline deal by acquiring guard J.J. Redick in a 6-player deal with the Orlando Magic.

With 29 games left, the Bucks are clinging to the NBA’s 8th and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.  They’ve lost 8 of the last 10 games overall and in need of a shot in the arm.

Redick, who averaged a career best 15.4 points in 50-games with Orlando, give the Bucks some much needed offense in what will now be a solid 3-guard rotation with Brandon Jennings and Monta Ellis.

The Bucks also obtained forward Gustavo Ayon and guard Ish Smith from the Magic, sending veteran Beno Udrih and youngsters Tobias Harris and Doron Lamb to Orlando.

Redick is in the final year of his contract, which means he could just be a rental for the rest of the season.  Of course, the Bucks could attempt to sign him to a long term deal this summer.

Redick adds a legitimate long range threat.  He’s shooting a career-best 45% from the field and 39% from three point range.  The Bucks currently rank 21st in the NBA in 3-point shooting accuracy at 34.8%.

Redick and the Bucks will host Josh Smith and the Atlanta Hawks on Saturday night at the Bradley Center.

January 12, 2013 By admin

The Milwaukee Bucks could not continue Wednesday’s momentum after a win at Chicago, falling to the Detroit Pistons 103-87 Friday night.  The Bucks (18-17) held a 49-41 lead at halftime, but were outscored by 22 points in the third quarter.

Detroit opened the third quarter with a 23-5 run, and grabbed the lead after a Brandon Jennings foul and resulting technical foul.

The Pistons defense held strong for the game, holding Milwaukee to a 39.6 shooting percentage.

For Milwaukee, three players hit double-digits in scoring.  Brandon Jennings and Beno Udrih each had 15 points, while Monta Ellis scored 13 on the night.  Samuel Dalembert led the Bucks in rebounds with seven, and Luc Richard Mbah a Moute and Ersan Ilyasova each had six rebounds.

Bucks score 101 points in losing effort to Rockets

January 5, 2013 By admin

While the Milwaukee Bucks (16-15) created a 58-47 lead at halftime, they could not maintain that lead Saturday night against the Houston Rockets (19-14).

A combination of poor shooting in the third quarter from Milwaukee plus a 38 point fourth quarter from Houston fueled the comeback and saw Milwaukee drop their third game in a row.  The Bucks went 4 of 16 for shooting in the third quarter and, in the fourth quarter, allowed a 13-0 run from Houston.

With this third consecutive loss, Milwaukee drops to third in the Central Division, two games behind the Chicago Bulls and the Indiana Pacers who are tied for the lead.

Brandon Jennings was one of seven Milwaukee Bucks who hit the double-digit mark in scoring, with 16 points.  Accompanying him was Monta Ellis and Mike Dunleavy with 12 points, John Henson, Ersan Ilyasova, and Beno Udrih all with 11 points, and Ekoe Udoh with 10 points.

The Bucks were led in rebounds by John Henson with 15 rebounds en route to his double-double. Ekoe Udoh of the Bucks had eight rebounds on the night.

Houston was led in scoring by James Harden with 29 points.  Carlos Delfino had 22 points, Toney Douglas and Patrick Patterson both had 18 points, and Omer Asik had 13 on the night.  Jeremy Lin, who left in the third quarter for stitches after a collision with Milwaukee’s Larry Sanders, had eight points.

The Rockets were led in rebounding by Omer Asik with eight, and both Marcus Morris and Chandler Parsons had seven rebounds.

With the mid-point of the season quickly approaching, Milwaukee looks to get back in the division hunt with a game at the Indiana Pacers Saturday night.

May 24, 2012 By Bill Scott
