Scoring breakdown...

Butler 22 points and 4 assists
Dials 19 points and 16 rebounds
Foster 18 points, 4 assists and 3 steals
Sylvester 7 points and 4 assists
Lewis 3 points
Sullinger 6 rebounds

The best part about this is that we all know that Sylvester, Lewis, or Sullinger could all go off for 20 on any given nite if they were hot.

Now lets just hope we can get Harris, Mayes, and Twig some quality minutes down the stretch run here and get ready for the tourney.

Unbelievable win for the Bucks today. Jamar Butler was..... just cant find words to describe how great its been watching this guy mature this season! Je'kel Foster I think could make 3's with his eyes closed sometimes. Thad Matta's preparation has been nothing but beautiful to watch all season long and this team continues to get better and better by the game. Anyone else disappointed with the crowd noise today? On television it looked like we were sold out but only had a couple of brief moments of actual noise.

Gotta love the fact that we more than held our own with them on the boards.

I think there is a chance that Butler could get player of the week in the big ten this week.

Games of 20 and 22. Very nice.

Don't forget the fact that he pretty much shut down Dee Brown and outplayed him all game long. Very impressive performance to say the least.

I don't think so, I think they were loud today.
