Only smiles after a Bucks win over the Mavs
So far this season I have gotten on just about every Bucks player. There will be none of that right now. Milwaukee won their biggest game of the season thus far with a 97-95 victory over the Dallas Mavericks Saturday night. Milwaukee stayed perfect at home and improved to 7-4 on the season. Any time the Bucks can be an elite team like the Mavs, I will get off my soap box and not criticize any of the players or coaches.
Michael Redd the Bucks in scoring with 27 on 7-11 shooting and also went 12-15 from the free throw line. Andrew Bogut had a big game scoring 16 while pulling down 14 rebounds. Mo Williams did what a good point guard does; get his teammates involved first and then scores second. Williams dished out 10 assists and scored 19.
It was a great display of what this team can accomplish playing solid team offense. In fact, the Bucks pulled out the win attempting only four shots from three-point range. I love watching the Bucks when they play this way. Beautiful, flowing offense that gets the whole team involved coupled with just enough defense to beat anyone in the league.
Milwaukee will host the 76ers on Tuesday night and look to keep their great play going. They have no beaten three very good teams in a row and need to avoid a let-down against a very bad Philadelphia team.

If you would have told me that the Bucks only shot four three-pointers and scored 97 points against the Mavericks, I would have told you categorically that they lost the game by double-digits. Yet, they managed to hold the Mavs to 95. If the Bucks learn how to stop people, and particularly the good teams, then watch out. You could be talking playoffs in Milwaukee.
