Owner Real Deal Posted November 18, 2012 Author Owner Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 http://sports.cbsimg.net/u/photos/basketball/nba/img21033079.jpg MILWAUKEE -- Milwaukee coach Scott Skiles was quick to point out the Bucks' defensive problems. "Our defense was embarrassing, pretty much from start to finish," Skiles said after Monta Ellis scored six of his 22 points in the final 2 minutes to help the Bucks hold off the New Orleans Hornets 117-113 on Saturday night for their third straight victory. "Neither team could stop each other, and we were fortunate to get a big block, make a couple of big baskets. It felt like that type of game, whoever had the lead with a couple of minutes to go was probably going to win the game, because nobody could stop anybody." Brandon Jennings also had 22 points, and Mike Dunleavy added 17, 16 of it in the first half, for Milwaukee, 6-2 in its best start since opening 9-1 in 2001-02. Top overall draft pick Anthony Davis had a season-high 28 points and tied his season high with 11 rebounds for New Orleans. Ryan Anderson added 20 points for the Hornets. Scoring wasn't the problem for the Bucks, but almost everything else was. "We played well offensively. We moved the ball like we always do. We scored," Skiles said. "That was not an issue tonight. They played last night and right from the beginning had more energy than we did. We just weren't sharp at all." The Hornets lost to Oklahoma City 110-95 on Friday night, while the Bucks hadn't played since Wednesday night in a 99-85 victory at home over Indiana.http://www.cbssports.com/nba/gametracker/recap/NBA_20121117_NO@MIL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
