Re: Game Thread, Bucks vs Jazz, 8 pm, Utah

Alas, another loss despite the good play of Bogut:

PLAYER OF THE GAMEeron Williams had a few uncharacteristic turnovers but he took over in the fourth quarter and directed the Jazz to victory. His driving basket and free throw with 1 minute 30 seconds left gave Utah a 93-82 lead and sent the Jazz fans streaming to the exits. The former Illinois guard finished with 33 points and 10 assists, and he sank 16 of 20 free throws.

PLAY OF THE GAME:Andrew Bogut blocked a shot by Jazz forward Mehmet Okur at the rim, then controlled the rebound and dribbled downcourt. The Bucks center made a behind-the-back pass to Mo Williams in the left corner, and Williams drilled a three-pointer, putting the Bucks ahead, 62-59, with 5:37 left in the third quarter as the players on the Bucks bench jumped high in the air to celebrate.

STATISTICS SHEET: The Bucks were shooting 57.1% through three quarters (32 for 56) but held just a 72-71 lead. They cooled off in the fourth quarter and shot 45.9% for the game. Utah shot 49.3%.

OFF THE BENCH:Charlie Bell scored 11 points to lead the Bucks' reserves, but the Milwaukee bench was outscored, 23-15. Paul Millsap led the Jazz bench players with 11 points, and Kyle Korver added seven.

It's nice that block made the top ten. Bogut deserves the attention.
