ON THE COURT PLAYER OF THE GAME: Backup point guard Luke Ridnour found his shooting stroke, scoring 14 of his 16 points in the second half and drilling a pair of three-pointers.

They really know how to crush even the most mild of expectation...

I am slightly bereft with a 30% chance of ennui.

Now the Bucks have a 2-guard problem. Sure, Michael Redd had some severe flaws in terms of motion as well as defense. And he has developed into a bit of an injury prone struggle bug in recent seasons. But Redd is a shooter nonpareil. And 20 PPG just doesn't grow on trees. (Well, it can, but it's ...
