JS: Coach, team clear the air
Quote:
Bucks coach Larry Krystkowiak and the rest of the coaching staff met with players in the locker room to talk out some issues, in a meeting that lasted nearly 30 minutes.
"We've got to challenge ourselves every possession, every game," Bucks guard Michael Redd said. "You've got to play with intensity if you're going to be a championship team, and we've not done it."
The Bucks were riding high just a week ago with a five-game winning streak, punctuated by home-court victories over the Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas. But everything has come unraveled in a woeful week, with losses to Philadelphia, Atlanta, New York and the Pistons.
"We don't want it spiraling down to where it was last year, the atmosphere of losing," Redd said.

"Through the course of the meeting, Jake (Voskuhl) said something that was important again," forward Desmond Mason said. "We don't want to get complacent with where we are.
"A lot of good teams have lost four games and come back and played good basketball. Again, it's to step out and put the product on the floor that was winning us games.
"Coach opened it up for anybody to say anything, any opinions and feelings. A lot of coaches won't do that. A lot of coaches just come in and scream."
