One day after scoring 29 points in Charlotte, Michael Redd scored just 11 points, but the result was the same, a convincing Milwaukee win. The 100-81 win is the Bucks fifth in seventh game.
One day after telling reporters that he wants to 'retire' with Milwaukee, he continued to field questions regarding his status with the club.
``I'm not worried at all, not worried at all,'' Redd said. ``When I say that, I meant it. I believe that I'll be here.''

As the New Jersey Nets prepare for the Toronto Raptors in the Meadowlands, former Raptor and surging Net Vince Carter insists there will be no hard feelings as he faces his old team for the first time since the trade.
"It's being blown out of proportion. It would be a bigger deal if there were hard feelings, or hatred. There's none of that," insisted Carter.
"Am I looking forward to it because it's the guys I know? Yes. Because it's the team I played with? Yes," he continued. "After that, I can't get caught up in it because I still have to report in the locker room and deal with (coach) Lawrence Frank. I have to bring my game and play the game he wants me to play and try not to do too much. That's why it's just another game."
