"They played very well and they kicked our butts in the third quarter," said Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich, whose team was outscored by a 37-21 margin in the third stanza. "They did a great job."

 

Duncan can move closer to Larry Bird for 27th on the all-time scoring list and needs 30 points to match the Boston legend. Richard Jefferson is leading the team in scoring over the last five games, averaging 16.2 ppg. After tonight's game in Brew City, the Spurs will head home for three straight games versus Houston, Portland and Phoenix.

 

"To go winless on a road trip is always a disappointment, but we have to figure out ways to bounce back," Bucks center Drew Gooden said.

 

Center Andrew Bogut missed the entire road trip for personal issues and is probable for tonight's game. Forwards Mike Dunleavy (groin) and Luc Mbah a Moute (knee) and guard Beno Udrih (shoulder) are questionable.

Minnesota is last in the Northwest Division and has dropped three of its last four games, including Monday's 97-87 setback at Toronto.

 

Kevin Love recorded his ninth straight double-double to start the season, scoring 13 points with 14 rebounds. J.J. Barea shook off a hamstring issue and scored a team-high 16 points off the bench, while rookie Ricky Rubio had 10. Barea had missed four straight and five of six games with the leg problem.
