NBA 2K9 New York Knicks Game 3

Milwaukee @ 80 72 75 New York 75 85 80 Bucks lineup - B. Davis, M. Miller, H. Turkoglu, E. Okafor, E. Curry Bench - J. Dixon, C. Duhon, R. Carney, F. Oberto, CJ Miles, I. Newble, A. Blatche Anderson Varejo suited up as i looked for a bit more versatility on the front line. I felt pretty good about this one, and as the game started i managed to build up a 4 point lead early and never surrended it for the entire game. Leading by around 10 points most of the way it was my turn to be on the receiving end of a ferocious comeback. With 3 minutes to go i still led by around 12 points but the Bucks (the **cks) came back in a hurry thanks to a full court press and some spectacular plays. I had numerous chances to seal it at the line. First off Marquis Daniels - who had been superb connected on only 1-2 giving the Bucks a chance to tie it with a three. But Baron Davis drove to the hoop and was fouled by KG. Davis connected on both and so i still had a one point lead with 14 seconds left. KG's 20 of my 32 points in the 4th quarter, but he nearly cost me the game. First off he got blocked on one trip up the floor and then with 5 seconds to go he was at the line with a chance to extend it to aq 3 point lead. But he botched both free throws! Turkoglu caught the ball on the 3 point line with a chance to win it, but i said 'Get that outta here!!'. Blocked shot. Knicks win. Phew!! Game Final Knicks d 35 31 33 32 131 Bucks 34 27 29 40 130 Jordan Brand Player of the Game Kevin Garnett - 43 points (21-23 FG), 12 rebounds, 2 steals, 2 assists, 1 block Key Players Knicks J. Calderon - 11 points, 12 assists, 2 steals M. Daniels - 16 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists R. Stuckey - 12 points (5-5 FG), 4 assists Gomes and Ariza also performed well in limited minutes. Bucks B. Davis - 28 points, 11 assists M. Miller - 25 points, 11 assists E. Okafor - 22 points, 9 rebounds, 5 blocks DUD of the Game Sasha Vujacic could have easily taken this out on 2-9 shooting in 22 minutes, but he did connect on 1-1 three pointers. So ill give it to.... Jason Maxiell - He's played in the first 2 but in 26 minutes he shot 2-6 (5 points) and only collected 2 rebounds. TEAM STATS Pretty interesting across the board. Probably my record low in turnovers - 9 Disappointing from the line especially down the stretch (13-20 FT) 37-22 rebounding advantage 51-28 bench points 15-8 - 2nd chance points 16-4 fast break points. What kept the bucks in it was there free throw shooting (18-22) and there defense - 11-5 blocks advantage.
