ATLANTA, Georgia - One game, it's one thing for the Milwaukee Bucks. The next game, it's something else.

Two nights after scoring a paltry 73 points in a loss to the Miami Heat, the Milwaukee Bucks didn't play a lick of defense in a 115-96 loss to the playoff-hopeful Atlanta Hawks Wednesday night at Philips Arena.

The Hawks shot 64.9% en route to a five-point halftime lead and ended the game at a 57.3% shooting clip in dealing the Bucks their seventh straight road defeat.

Lousy offense one night. Lousy defense the next.

"It's like rolling the dice and just seeing what happens, I guess," said Bucks center Andrew Bogut, who left the game in the fourth quarter with a bloodied face and what might be a broken nose. "Or flipping a coin. Heads or tails. Heads is defense. Tails is offense.

"I can't let it affect me or bring me down. I just try and play as hard as I can. I'm trying to play defense and I'm trying to play offense. But as a team, we're definitely one of the worst at it."

It was a rather strange night all around for the Bucks. Full Story
