After the schedulers were kind enough to give us an off day to work through the post-holiday hangover, a new gift awaits tonight as the Milwaukee Bucks hit the road and take on the New York Knicks. Tonight’s contest is the only game of the first five of the regular season for Milwaukee that are not national broadcasts, making it the first opportunity for us to hear old friends Jim Paschke and Marques Johnson calling the game. It also kicks off a three-game road trip, culminating in a back-to-back against our nemesis du jour, the Miami Heat; not that we should overlook the team in front of us on the schedule, but clearly this game is a simple business matter whereas the next two carry more import.
