Not Done Yet

Everyone seems to be resigned to losing in Atlanta today. I'm not quite sure why. For three quarters Friday night, the Bucks thoroughly outplayed the Hawks. But that 3rd Quarter was a disaster of epic proportions.

Well, Scott Skiles isn't going to be outcoached like that today. In Game 6's 3rd Quarter, the Hawks played a 1-2-2 defense and held the Bucks to a team playoff record low 9 points in the quarter. Skiles, who reacted far too slowly to this development, got the Bucks to attack the zone late in the quarter and by 2 minutes into the 4th, the Hawks were back to man-to-man.

I suspect today's game (noon on ABC) will be tightly contested. And while I think the Hawks will win, it's only a 60-40 proposition. Young Buck shines in big moments. And today will be all about who has the best shots in the last two minutes. Go Bucks!
