The Nets were pretty happy yesterday, thanks to Joe Johnson |
When: 8:00 PM: Wednesday, February 20th, 2013
Where: BMO Harris Bradley Center; Milwaukee, WI
TV: YES Network
As Josh Smith (and even Paul Pierce) trade rumors float around the Nets, they have to bear down and worry about an actual game tonight as they look to build off of last night's thrilling win in Brooklyn vs the Bucks that came on a pair of wonderful Joe Johnson buzzer-beaters. The win snapped a 13-game Nets losing streak vs Milwaukee and also extended Brooklyn's current winning streak (continued from before the All-Star break) to three games, all against teams that were above .500 when the game was played (the Bucks were 26-25 before last night's meeting.
Nothing has changed with either of teams since roughly 24 hours ago so there really isn't much else to preview. A big thing to look for, however, is how much Brook Lopez will play tonight after his surprising fourth-quarter benching yesterday. Just want to see how P.J. changes his rotation, if at all, after the win.
Probable Lineups
BKN- Williams (PG), Johnson (SG), Wallace (SF), Evans (PF), Lopez (C)
MIL- Jennings (PG), Ellis (SG), Mbah a Moute (SF), Ilyasova (PF), Sanders (C)
Final Thoughts
The Nets just have to get more hands in Brandon Jennings' face tonight than they did last night and they should be fine.
