After starting the season on an 8-3 run, the Milwaukee Bucks have lost eight of their last nine games with their only victory in that string being a two-point win over the Chicago Bulls. They've only scored over 100 points once in those nine games, so there's a good chance that the Raptors will extend their streak of holding opponents to under 100 points in regulation time to four games. Both teams played last night so the back-to-back curse shouldn't stop the Raptors from taking this one.

Five questions
1. Can the Raptors maintain their aggressiveness from last night's game? Although their opponents have more free throw attempts than them on the season, the Raptors had a 48-23 advantage in attempts last night.
2. Did you know that Bucks coach Scott Skiles holds the record for most assists (30) in a single game?
3. Has the rest of the league figured out Brandon Jennings? After scoring over 20 points in seven of his first 11 games, he's only scored that many in one of his past nine. Not coincidentally, the Bucks have lost eight of those nine games.
4. How many of you will get choked up by seeing future Hall of Famer Roko Ukic in a Bucks uniform?
5. Is it legal to commit assault against anyone who wears a Minnesota Vikings Brett Favre jersey in the state of Wisconsin?
