Bucks' coach Scott Skiles is pleased with the amount of chemistry the team has built in the early part of the season.

"I'm pleased with the way the guys have taken to each other considering the fact that we have a whole new way of doing things," Skiles said. "They've been very good and made efforts to get along and to respect the fact that we need good chemistry in order to win games."

The Bucks are 7-8 through their first fifteen games, even without sharpshooter Michael Redd, who hasn't played since Nov. 2.
