1.23.06 at the Bradley Center
A day after Kobe Bryant dropped 81 on the Raptors, Michael Redd would also make history, as he dropped 66 on the Houston Rockets in a 136-93 blowout at the Bradley Center, making Redd's performance the highest-scoring game in Bucks history. Here's a breakdown of Redd's historic night:
1ST QTR: 6-7 fg, 2-3 3pt fg, 3-4 ft, 17 pts
2ND QTR: 3-4 fg, 1-2 3pt fg, 7-7 ft, 14 pts
3RD QTR: 4-4 fg, 1-1 3pt fg, 7-7 ft, 16 pts
4TH QTR: 6-8 fg, 5-6 3pt fg, 2-2 ft, 19 pts
FINAL: 19-23 FG, 9-12 3PT FG, 19-20 FT, 66 PTS.
Other Bucks shone brightly as well.
Jamaal Magloire had a double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds.
T.J. Ford almost had a double-double with 15 points and 8 assists.
And Hugh Fitzpatrick nearly pulled off a triple-double with 12 points, 13 rebounds and 8 assists.
The Bucks were 46-85 from the field and 33-39 from the line and were 11-16 from long distance (Houston's stats were 33-85, 5-10 and 22-24, respectively). And the Bucks pounded the glass often, outrebounding Houston 50-37, and they committed fewer fouls (HOU 29, MIL 17).
In all, a great way to end a losing streak, and a historic night for Michael Redd and the Milwaukee Bucks. But on January 25 the Bucks (20-20) will have to face the dangerous Detroit Pistons at the Palace of Auburn Hills. Could they beat the Pistons like they did on November 26 back in Milwaukee?

Bucks fall under .500 for the first time. By losing to the BOBCATS!
January 21 at the Bradley Center
There was no triple-doubles in the Bobcats' 92-87 win over the Bucks, but there was a triple double-double, thanks to Primoz Brezec, Brevin Knight and Emeka Okafor. That trio helped the Bobcats hand Milwaukee their sixth straight loss and their 9th loss in 11 tries. Plus, the Bucks are under .500 for the first time this season. The 'Cats held Michael Redd in check, holding him to under 20 points and 4 of 19 shooting. But Charlotte could not stop Hugh Fitzpatrick from a big night and Jamaal Magloire from a 15-15 night and a season high for rebounds.

Fitzpatrick has his 1st 20/20 game, but Bucks lost to Atlanta.
1/20/06 at Philips Arena
Joe Johnson scored 41 points including 5 key points in OT as the lowly Atlanta Hawks handed the Bucks their 8th consecutive road loss, 117-108. The Hawks also had big contributions from Al Harrington and Josh Smith, who became the third small forward from a Bucks opponent to grab 14+ rebounds (the others: Josh Howard and James Posey). Michael Redd led the Bucks in scoring, as Milwaukee posted 6 players with double figures in points. Hugh Fitzpatrick had a monster game as he had a career high in rebounds, but a 20/20 night. But three-pointers proved to harm the Bucks on both sides of the ball, as Milwaukee made just 6 of 21 attempts and Atlanta made 11 of their 19 triples. The Bucks are now 19-19 for the season, they have never been below .500 all season, but a loss to the Bobcats tomorrow could put them 1 under .500.

...and in San Antonio
1/18/06 at the AT&T Center
San Antonio 89, Bucks (19-18) 76
After scoring 33 points in the opening quarter, the Bucks went completely flat the rest of the way, as the defending NBA Champion Spurs won 89-76, with Manu Ginobili leading the way with 22 points, 8 assists and 4 assists.
The 2nd quarter was the reason why Milwaukee lost, as they only scored six points in that period, and were 3-for-18 in field goals. They followed that up with a 14 point quarter, as they went 5-for-18 from the field. The Bucks were 30-for-74 (40.5%) from the field overall while the Spurs shot 54.4% (37 of 68), and they were 8-of-14 from long distance.
San Antonio got big contributions from:
Tony Parker, who had 16 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 steals
Nazr Mohammed, who was 4-4 from the field and 4-4 from the line, he had 12 points and 5 rebounds
and Brent Barry, who was 4-6 from the field, and 2-4 from 3-point range.
Despite the loss, Michael Redd led the team with 21 points, with Jamaal Magloire having a good game with 11 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists while T.J. Ford made up for his 6 point night (2-of-9 shooting) with 4 rebounds, 9 assists and 4 steals.
Hugh Fitzpatrick was just 3-for-9 from the field, but...
he grabbed 10 rebounds, made 7 assists and blocked 5 shots.
He also forced Tim Duncan to miss his first 6 shots (he went 4-13 from the field), held him to 9 rebounds and he only had 8 points.
And despite the 6 2nd quarter points and 14 in the 3rd, the Bucks outrebounded San Antonio 41-40 and had 10 steals, compared to the Spurs' 5.
But the Bucks come up empty tonight. Up next: they visit Philips Arena on 1/20 to take on the Hawks, then they host the Bobcats the next night.
The Bucks, now 19-18, have now lost 7 straight road games.

Carmelo Anthony had a solid game tonight with 24 points (8-16 FG, 7-10 FT) and 7 rebounds, but he committed 5 turnovers.
Andre Miller flirted with a double-double with 17 points and 9 assists, but his stats were marred by his 4-10 FG performance.
Backup power forward Reggie Evans had 6 points and 9 rebounds while Kenyon Martin had 8 points and 8 rebounds, but Evans fouled out while Martin had 4 fouls.
The Nuggets were held to just 40% (30-for-75), and only attempted 4 3-pointers, making 2 of them.
for the Milwaukee Bucks:
Michael Redd was the top man again, as he led all scorers with 33 points. He was 10-26 from the field, 3-7 from deep but 10-11 from the line.
Hugh Fitzpatrick had a good game with 14 points and 8 rebounds, despite 5-11 FG, 4-7 FG and 5 turnovers.
