Apparently last Tuesday night Kobe put Brandon on straps by picking him up full court and he didn’t like it. Didn’t like it so much that he gave it a try against Lillard Saturday.
Brandon Jennings learned something from playing his idol last Tuesday night.
Kobe Bryant picked up Jennings defensively in the backcourt, 94 feet away from the basket. Knowing how much Bryant’s constant harassing defense impacted him, Jennings thought he’d give it a try.
Jennings set the defensive tone from the start Saturday night and also scored 30 points as the Milwaukee Bucks built a big lead and held off a furious comeback attempt by Portland in a 110-104 victory.
The win gave the Bucks a 3-1 record on their longest road trip of the season and marked the first time since 2001 that Milwaukee finished a trip of four or more games with a winning record.
