The game is tied at 7, early in the 1st quarter, as I tune in. The game is on NBA Network.

Beasley hits a 3! Then, Middleton with a turnover, due to a bad pass.
Lillard with a nice drive around Valanciunis for 2 and a 5 point Bucks lead.
Murphy with a beautiful shot over a jumping Lopez.
Technical on NO player for bouncing the ball hard.
Portis picks up his 2nd foul getting up close and personal with a Pelican.
Bucks down 26-25 after one. Pelicans are 1 for 10 from three or this game would look a lot different.
Bucks getting killed. Down 9. Giannis and Pat Bev missing jump shots.
Portis missing jumpers, too. Bucks playing some sloppy ball. Down 12 now.
Completely embarrassing right now. Bucks look like they don't give a shit tonight. Down 14
Just a terrible effort so far, and now Dame appears to be hurt.
Lillard hobbling at the buzzer. 41-65 Pelicans at halftime.
The Bucks announcers mentioning several times that Dame Lillard ate 60 oysters last night.
Suggests Dame wasn't really taking the game very seriously today.
Lillard looks to be fine, so far. He was walking gingerly at the end of the half.
Giannis is in his mental midget FT phase again. 1 for his last 10 now and barely drawing iron.
Giannis with a nice drive around Zion, draws the foul and makes the basket. Time to break the FT drought.
4th foul on Herb Jones. Huge if he fouls out.

And then goes for 16 points in about 4 minutes.
Bucks within 5.
Middleton is 11 for his last 33 and 4 for 18 from three in that same span.
Middleton's passing leaving a lot to be desired.
Bucks get it back to within 3, almost all due to Giannis.
Then Middleton has two turnovers around a forced shot miss and it's 12 almost immediately .
As good as Middleton was against the Thunder, he's just been awful the last two games.
73-85 Pelicans after 3. Pelicans on a 9-2 run.
Bucks are a quarter away from being only one game up in the loss column to the Knicks for the second seed.
Portis then draws his 5th foul and it is under review. Foul on Portis NO ball.
Lopez gets Herb Jones to foul him. 5th foul on Jones.
Most of the non-Giannis Bucks, other than Beasley, have been terrible. Middleton has been awful. Dame spent too much time on the town last night.
Pelicans by 12 and Bucks seeming to lose some contact after Dame clanks a few shots.
