After Action Report

The Bucks pulled away from the Kings 97-81. The Bucks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Bucks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Bucks' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Early returns: the Bucks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
