A lot has been made about the Bucks Defense and rightly so they held the red hot Utah Jazz to 40.5 % shooting and only 87 points when they have been putting up 107 or so over the past couple weeks.
The Story will be Boozer getting a double T with 15 seconds left and some bad decisions late, but the Bucks are a very good defensive team and made plays when they had to.
AK also left with a calf strain. Stay close to twitter to find out if he will play on Sunday @ OKC or not.
I would have liked to win this game and If we lose to OKC I would feel more comfortable about the Road trip. If we lose both of them and head into next week with 2 straight losses.
STAT of the NIGHT 0-10 from three point line.

The Utah Jazz front court really didn't play last night. Combined, Deron and Matthews went for 6-21 for 17 points. Midway through the third I noticed that Deron was not wearing his brace, I don't know if that effected his play but it looked like he was fine with not talking the open Jumpers coming of the curl. Matthews may have had the home town jitters and tried a little to hard. He played great d as always, the shots just weren't falling tonight.
Memo continued is streak of good play and finished with 20 and 11
Boozer was a beast until the last 2o seconds. However I don't think we would have won had he made that bucket instead of losing it out bounds. It would have given us a better chance but not the win. I will take 26-14 any day of the week. Let's hope he has some left in the box for Sunday night's game.
CJ started out cold but led the Jazz comeback late, I don't like him taking 16 shots in any game even if he is on fire. I would rather have Deron take more shots here is why. Cj doesn't focus on rebounding which means he falls back on D when Deron drives or takes the jump shot. Deron has been more focused on Rebounds this year which leaves over the top passes eaiser because Deron is going for the rebound and CJ is taking the shot. Just my thoughts.
AK leaving the game really hurt the Jazz on the Defensive side of the ball. He finishes that game out I think we win.
Gotta give credit where credit is due, the Bucks played really well last night.
