Game of the Week.

I'll be choosing a game of the week every Monday. Games will be chosen based on relevance, entertainment factor and key player matchups.




This week's game to watch is Tuesday's Portland at Milwaukee. This game showcases some of the best young talent in the league and two playoff teams from last year who are still trying to find their way. Brandon Roy and the Blazers are starting another season without a healthy Greg Oden and without young guard Jerryd Bayless, who they just traded to New Orleans. The Bucks also are adjusting to new changes with the addition of Corey Maggette and Chris Douglas Roberts. B Jennings put up a triple-double over the weekend and is shooting quite efficiently this young season. I look for this game to be a defensive battle, with the score in the 90's. Key matchups will be Andrew Bogut vs Marcus Camby and the young, flamboyant Brandon Jennings vs the seasoned vet Andre Miller. Look for B Roy to have around 22, 4,6 with no true threat on Milwaukee to challenge him. Jennings may struggle from the field and score around 13 points and dish out 8 dimes but Milwaukee will find a way as a unit. I predict this game to go 99-93, Bucks.
