Can the Bucks finally win in Arizona?

Quote:

Bucks (19-18) vs. Phoenix Suns (13-27).

WHEN: 8 p.m. Thursday.

WHERE: US Airways Center.

BROADCASTS: TV - FS Wisconsin. Radio - AM-620.

About the Suns: Phoenix posted an impressive 97-81 road victory over Chicago on Saturday night behind 22 points from power forward Luis Scola. Michael Beasley had played just 9 minutes in the previous three games before scoring 20 points in 21 minutes off the bench against the Bulls. The Suns have not played since Monday when they dropped a 102-90 decision at home to Oklahoma City. Shannon Brown had 21 points in a starting role while playing 43 minutes. Brown started due to a right wrist injury suffered by Jared Dudley, who missed his second straight game. Dudley is expected to be available against the Bucks. The Suns assigned former Milwaukee Vincent star Diante Garrett to the Bakersfield Jam of the NBA Development League on Jan. 10. First-round pick and former North Carolina point guard Kendall Marshall earlier had a stint in Bakersfield.

Longest streak like it in terms of years, but not the longest losing streak in terms of actual games lost to one opponent in the opponent's arena.

There were some good teams in those 24 years, too.

Really amazing how we play in phoenix.. they are playing sloppy and lazy tonight.. and look like they are going to lose yet again

Yes, Jim Boylan is now in Larry Costello and Don Nelson's class.

**Prince** · 01-17-2013, 11:01 PM

Larry Sanders has really come along this year.

And the Bucks helped another coach lose his job with this win.
