(WNFL)- The Milwaukee Bucks say they’ve been giving up too many easy points lately. The Bucks are 0-3 on their four game Western road swing and they’ll probably need a major turnaround tonight if they want to beat Western Conference leading Golden State in Oakland. The Bucks fell at Denver last night 106-95, in the first game for Nuggets’ interim coach Melvin Hunt after Brian Shaw was fired. The Bucks expected the Nuggets to be fired up, as Denver snapped a six game overall losing streak and a 10 game futility string at home. Milwaukee is still getting used to three new players, after trading point guard Brandon Knight 13 days ago. The Bucks are just 2-5 since then. Coach Jason Kidd says the Bucks need to do a better job of rebounding and taking care of the ball. Guard Khris Middleton said the Nuggets scored from the paint way too many times although Denver only out scored Milwaukee 42-38 in that department. The Bucks committed 14 turnovers which led to 20 Denver points, and Milwaukee missed 7-22 free throw opportunities.
