Bucks stay Hot...Outclass Nets 110-98

[TJ_4_CV31]

After going on the road and dispatching TJ's #7 seed Philadelphia in their home opener, the Bucks pulled off the daily double by traveling to New Jersey, after a grinding overtime victory on the front end of this back to back, and "upsetting" TJ's #3 seeded Nets in their home opener. After falling into a 16 point deficit, the Bucks bench...led by Mo Williams (23pts)...closed the gap. After all was said and done, the Bucks emptied the building and won going away.....110-98.

Quote from Kidd:

"We took it easy....they just kept playing".

Translation: They're pretty deep. I got tired. We couldn't keep up.

Quote from Carter:

"Once they got it going, it was hard to slow them down".

Translation: They're very good, especially Michael Redd....He lit me up tonight. :chuckles:

Rattled opponent award: To Richard Jefferson (ejected) who fired an elbow at the head of 5-9 155lb TJ Ford. You just don't think straight when your getting your butt kicked.

Notable Bucks performers:

Redd..............41pts (12-20fg / 14-17ft /3-5 3pt), 6rebs, 2 steals.
Ford...............21pts, 6assists.
Bogut.............10pts, 17rebs (8off), 4assists, 1steal
Mo Will...........23pts (bench) (4-6 3pt), 5assists, 4rebs
Magloire..........8rebs, 4blocks

Central Division Standings

1. Milwaukee.........2-0
2. Chicago............1-0
3. Cleveland..........1-0 (good luck with the champs)
4. Detroit.............1-0
5. Indiana.............1-0

As an NBA fan, you really gotta respect what the Bucks have done in their first 2 games. They beat the 2 best teams in the Atlantic on the road in their home openers, in a back to back. Than is no easy feat! The Bucks are a solid team, Ford appears to be back, with Redd, and with time, Magloire will be tough. Are these wins a fluke, or will the Bucks continue to beat quality opponents? I like the Bucks, me and Redd are Columbus natives, I like TJ Ford, and i like to root for the underdog. At least the media makes the Bucks to be an 'underdog', I hope they whoop the likes of NY, Chi, LA. Keep us posted on the Bucks, TJsDa1, I only see the Bucks on highlights and when they play the Cavs. Did you see the Cavs opener highlights? Bucks will be caught in the blinding headlights of the Cavalier Train, and get CRUSHED! (well, well see how we handle the world champs...)

are you going to post this after every game??? isnt their a bucks forum you can do this on??? goodness.

When to the Cavaliers and Bucks play? I know it was the Hornets but we were like clicking the entire game, even with Lebron or Z out Larrys D was stifling and Marshall was making bucket after bucket.

 

[TJ_4_CV31]

Yeah I saw the Cav highlights on ESPN. That Hughes to James lob was pretty sweet looking. My favorite part of the Cav highlight package was Lebron's first 3.....just listen to the sound as the ball went through the net (splash!!!). I think they had the net mic turned up to the max! The kid is good.

CDT,

The Bucks and Cavs play for the first time on Dec. 10 at the Bradley Center. Sellout crowd.

The energy in the Q and for the people watching was amazing when LeBron hit those 4 treys..after the 3rd one I was freaking going nuts my parents hate Cavs season because they can never sleep until after like 10:00 I'm either jumping cheering or punching something :chuckles:

 

[ChicagoCavFan]

Come on...its cool when other fans come over here and tout their team - makes it interesting when we play them throughout the season. I wish more fans would come here - get other perspectives, and make them our whipping boy when the Cavs beat 'em. :chuckles:

Oh, and lol at the translations TJ. Your Bucks are playing out of their minds - they'll come back to Earth soon.

The Central is freakin UNDEFEATED!!!!!

You guys give him exactly what he wants, so he keeps posting, I don't know why you guys even care, just ignore these posts if you want them gone...but you won't ignore them and they will continue because he wants to get a rise and reaction and that is exactly what you give him. When it comes down to it, he is essentially a troll

 

[highplainsdrifter]

I like TJsDa1's posts. You call him a troll, i call him a passionate Bucks fan, who makes intelligent posts with a sense of humor. I dont agree with him on everything, but i respect his POV. He spices things up at RCF, and i hope he contunues to post here.

Anyone who doesnt value his posts dont read his threads and dont reply to his posts. Ill talk BBall with any NBA fan who is intelligent and makes me laugh, regardless who they root for. I cant believe this is still an issue here. Perhaps the inmaturity of some on here.

 

[TheAdmin]

As long as he keeps it in this part of RCF I don't have a problem with it.

 

[TJ_4_CV31]

Thanks for the support guys. I also ignore those who try and misrepresent me. Short and simple, I'm here because I'm a fan of the NBA and find the perspective of a rival (friendly) both informative and entertaining. To say that I want to bait RCF posters is just pure haterism. I haven't told anyone anything that I couldn't support with facts. What I've said to this point is proving to be pretty accurate. I just think that some of you are unwilling to see beyond your wine colored spectacles. That's okay though, human nature.

Again, I don't care what you do. I gave you my opinion, I don't care what you post, I was trying to tell those who say they can't stand your posts what they need to do, if they want them gone.

I do see you as a troll. This is Cavs site, but you don't really discuss anything Cavaliers, you do just enough to make sure you say you do, then you post a big long post with ever so subtle jabs to get those people that don't want to hear about it to bite on it and complain.

Last post for example:

"I just think that some of you are unwilling to see beyond your wine colored spectacles. That's okay though, human nature."

Criticizing "passionate Cavs fans" for being avid supporters of the favorite team. At a site called realcavsfans.com filled with only cavs fans, that is going get a rise out of some people. I wouldn't go to a bucks board and just talk about Cavs stuff, because they don't really want hear it except maybe the minimum to stay current. And the accuracy of your post really have nothing do with what I am saying either. I could go do a John Kerry board and say Bush won the election. I would be accurate, but we all know where that goes.

I didn't say you were dumb or you made stupid posts or I want you gone. I didn't even say you were wrong, I just think certain things have a certain places and I wouldn't do what you do.

So I stick by what I have observed and how I see things. I won't talk about it anymore though, it dampens the mood.

yo man i always loved tj in college and it jurt to see him get hurt. But i really respect the way they have played.i love the nba and just watching it,the performances they put on back to back nights would make me smile if i got to see them.I seriously think the weakest team in our division is the bulls and they still are playoff contenders.the bulls have no1 downlow but chandler.chandler is athletic and long but cant guard guys downlow like shaq and ilgauskas etc.they got lucky last night,the bulls that is.i saw u guys were down 19-5 to start and the way u guys handled yourselves was good and i do give u guys props.i think our game vs. the spurs will be way better than people are thinking.
