Milwaukee beat Philadelphia today, 94-84. But the big headlines in the game came from an incident involving Philadelphia players and coach Bob after the game. After the players disappeared into their respective locker rooms, Philadelphia players reportedly attacked coach, throwing him to the ground. Reporters waiting outside heard only pieces of the shouting, but the players were clearly upset by Bob's questionable calls late in the game. Philadelphia star Garcia was one of those involved, and was still upset about the situation during the post-game interviews. "I'm not free to comment on what happened," he said. "But I will tell you that I'm working my tail off every game and expect the same effort from my teammates and coaches."

Interviews with Milwaukee players were a bit less exciting, with Jaramillo giving the cliche line "we're just happy to come out with the win. Coach Bob and his team gave a good fight, but we were the better team today."

Milwaukee was led by Jaramillo (20 points, 12 boards, 1 assists, a steal, a block), Valentine (12 points, 15 boards, 3 assists, 4 blocks), Thomas (19 points, 7 boards, 1 assists). Philadelphia was led by Garcia (24 points, 1 assists, 2 blocks), Franklin (12 points, 16 boards, 0 assists, a block), Smith (14 points, 2 blocks).

With this victory, Milwaukee stand at 41-18 and 22-9 at home. They remain at #1 in the Central and remain at #1 overall in the Eastern Conference. Philadelphia are now 35-24. They remain at #2 in the Atlantic and move down to #8 overall in the Eastern Conference.
