MILWAUKEE - Practice may not make perfect, though it made a big difference for the Milwaukee Bucks.Brandon Knight scored 22 points, Giannis Antetokounmpo added 20, and the Bucks beat the Los Angeles Clippers 111-106 on Saturday night.The Bucks defence had been faltering the past two weeks, allowing at least 107 points in four of five games and losing five of their last six contests.With three days off since losing at Oklahoma City on Tuesday night, the Bucks went into the gym to correct some errors. It paid off, with the Clippers star tandem of Chris Paul and Blake Griffin held to just 10 points apiece.We harked in on things that are very valuable about our defence that weve seen on film, where we make little mistakes and our whole defence collapses, said Larry Sanders, who had 15 points and nine rebounds, but was just as valuable disrupting the Los Angeles offence in the paint.Everyone has to be on point and I think everyone did a great job of stepping up tonight, Sanders said.The Bucks held Los Angeles to 43 per cent shooting. Griffin missed eight of 12 shots and Paul missed 10 of 15 while committing six turnovers for the second straight game.You can throw them different looks and you just hope that they miss, Milwaukee coach Jason Kidd said. We gave them different looks and, again, one shot. When Griffin misses a shot, (DeAndre) Jordan normally around the rim cleaning it up. We just tried to make it tough on those guys and they missed some shots down the stretch.It was the ninth consecutive game the Bucks scored at least 100 points, the franchises longest run since 1991. Los Angeles shot 39 of 91 while Milwaukee took only 76 shots, but made 43.They got everywhere they wanted to tonight, Paul said. We never really made an impact on the game. Just like last night, it was (six) turnovers. Never did that before. Dont think I ever had four offensive fouls in a game, either. We have to defend. We have to play better.Jamal Crawford hit a 3-pointer with 3.1 seconds left to pull the Clippers to 109-106. Knights inbounds pass was tipped out of bounds by Matt Barnes, who was tied up with Khris Middleton on a close play.The referees reviewed the replay and confirmed that the Bucks had the ball. Milwaukee inbounded again, and Knight hit a pair of free throws with 2.1 seconds remaining to close the scoring.Barnes scored a season-high 26 points and JJ Redick added 25 for Los Angeles.Milwaukee made eight consecutive shots en route to a decisive 18-3 run midway through the fourth quarter, sending the Clippers to consecutive losses for the first time this season.We allowed them to shoot 56 per cent from the field and 60-something (64 per cent) from 3, Los Angeles coach Doc Rivers said. When you do that, you should probably lose the game and we did.___TIP-INSClippers: It was the first time this season the Clippers lost the second game when playing on consecutive nights.

MARTINSVILLE, Va. -- Kurt Buschs Sunday at Martinsville Speedway, in some ways, was like his career wrapped into one afternoon. It started with a pit road confrontation with Brad Keselowski, one that had Busch threatening over his radio to rearrange Keselowskis face when the race was finished, and ended with Busch ending an 83-race victory drought. The victory was his first for Stewart-Haas Racing, in just their sixth race together, suggesting that it could prove a very productive partnership, and one that a reflective Busch said he has learned to approach with a more mature attitude. "I ran a lot of my early part of my career as an individual and I didnt respect my team, my team owners," Busch said, adding that having Tony Stewart as a team owner has helped him learn the value of better team communication. Celebrating in Victory Lane also was emotional, too, because he got to do it for the first time with his son, Houston. "It was pretty emotional. To see him starry eyed and not knowing what he needed to do and I was directing him where he needed to stand and where he could see it all better and put him up on stage," Busch said, his voice cracking. "And to have him break down in tears, it got me crossed up because Ive been trying to deliver for him ... It kind of took it to a new level." Busch did it by passing Martinsville master Jimmie Johnson for the lead with 10 laps to go and holding off the eight-time winner to win at the track for the first time since October 2002. It was his 25th career Cup-level victory, and that it came in the most unlikely of places suggested to Busch that hes finally in the right place, team-wise and personally. "Youve got to put life in perspective, and you have to learn from your mistakes and you cant just sit there and try to muscle your way individually through certain situations," he said. "And so you rely on your experience level, you rely on your team, and this is a great day for me to be able to lift the trophy in Victory Lane for Stewart-Haas Racing." Johnson, with eight wins in 25 career starts on the 0.526-mile oval, led 11 times for 296 laps. He seemed on his way to another victory when he took the lead from Busch with 17 laps remaining. But Busch stayed close, ducked underneath Johnson seven laaps later and Johnson had nothing left to make a run at the lead, making for a polite-looking finish.dddddddddddd "Thats all I had," Johnson said. "Man, I ran the rear tires off the car. I flipped every switch and knob I could in there to get front brake and turns fans off and try to help bring my balance back." Just ahead, Busch wasnt sure he could hang on. He hadnt finished in the top 10 in his last 16 starts here. "I didnt know if wed be able to do it, you know? The 48 car is king here, him or the 24," he said in Victory Lane, referring to Johnson and his Hendrick Motorsports teammate, Jeff Gordon, who also has eight Martinsville victories. "Ive been on this journey for a while and every time you come to Martinsville, you just kind of draw a line through it like theres no way Ill be able to challenge those Hendrick guys or be up in the top 10," Busch said. When it was over, Busch brushed aside talk about his in-race comments about his feud with Keselowski, who claimed that Busch "just drove right through me and ruined my day" on pit road, causing Keselowski to lose 30 laps and retaliate. "He tried to flatten all four of my tires," Busch said of his former teammate with Roger Penske Racing. "Thats a no fly zone. ... He will get what he gets back when I decide to give it back." The race featured an event-record 33 lead changes, and Johnson expected there would be one more, but on a slippery day on the smallest circuit in NASCARs premier series, the cars at the end werent conducive to typical short-track racing. "Man, we were so on edge slipping and sliding," Johnson said about the final laps duel, during which there was very little of the beating and banging that usually typifies end-of-the-day racing at Martinsville. "I think the lack of security in our own car kept us from feeling more racy and putting a bumper to someone or really getting inside someone aggressively." Dale Earnhardt Jr. was third, followed by Joey Logano and Marcos Ambrose. Virginia native Denny Hamlin, a four-time winner at Martinsville stung by criticism when he missed last weeks race in Fontana, Calif., because of an eye infection, promised Friday that he would win, and qualified second, but finished 19th.
