Chase to 50: Bucks vs Lakers

Playing catchup in my Chase to 50 posts, I'm terribly sorry for being so slow. This was part of my season ticket package, so I made the four block walk to the game. I managed to sneak into a fifth row seat for the second and third quarter. Come the fourth quarter I managed to sneak into a courtside seat next to former Green Bay Packer Leroy Butler. IT WAS AWESOME, I was able to talk to him for most of the quarter, as expected he's a real down to Earth guy. He even posed for a picture with me after the game.

But, let's talk about the game. This is an easy one to breakdown. Both teams shot well from the floor, so that wasn't the factor that killed the Bucks. As predicted it was a game of high-powered offenses, however it was defense that helped the Lakers win the game. They didn't play exceptionally great defense, they just were able to out-defend the Bucks. The Bucks also turned the ball over far too often, especially in big moments of the game. The Bucks weren't ever able to get any big stops against the Lakers, especially against Kobe Bryant (who dropped 33).

Lakers win, Bucks lose. The final score wasn't as bad as the game really was.
