Bucks lose, I mean win close game

What a game! I'm not sure that either the 76ers or the Bucks actually wanted to win the game, but we finally got a much needed W. Between the Bucks missing 6 free throws in the final period, including Ridnour missing 1 of 2 with 3 seconds left after Elton Brand's missed gimme a possession earlier. Jennings made a nice floater after a great rocker step to give the Bucks their last lead. However, why did they completely crumble when they got up 10 with 4 minutes to go. Philadelphia is not a good team, and the Bucks were playing at home. This should not have been this close. I'm not sure how Andrew Bogut did not manage to get owned by Samuel Dalembert like he generally does, but thank goodness it didn't. A gut win for the Bucks, but at this point, and win is important. And, I know that it is mid-week and it is as cold as ever in Wisconsin, but there was no one in the upper deck tonight. Also, FSNWisconsin, Bill and Jon are class acts and do a tremendous job on the tele, but please do not remind us Bucks fans about Glenn Robinson's missed shot at the end of game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals anymore, and don't say that Brand's miss today even compares to that, or even comes close; and Allen Iverson riding the bench doesn't evoke memories of that series. That series was nothing but pain and sorrow for Bucks nation, something that I personally still have not recovered from.
