MILWAUKEE -- Brook Lopez and the Brooklyn Nets needed a strong performance after an embarrassing loss to the New York Knicks. Call it a perfect time for a trip to Milwaukee. Lopez scored 32 points, Joe Johnson had 15 and the Nets beat the lowly Bucks 90-82 on Saturday night. Lopez dominated inside, making 11 of 13 shots from the field. He also had seven rebounds and four assists as Brooklyn bounced back from Thursday nights 113-83 home loss to New York. The Nets had dropped four of five overall. "When you have a player like Brook or Joe, who can also command double teams, youre going to have some shots around the arc that we made tonight," Nets coach Jason Kidd said. "So, everybody pitched in." Alan Anderson added 13 points for Brooklyn, which shot 46 per cent from the field and enjoyed a 41-36 rebounding edge. O.J. Mayo led the Bucks with 22 points and John Henson added 18 points and seven rebounds. Milwaukee has the worst record in the Eastern Conference at 4-16. "We had no answer for Lopez. His size down low was too much for us," Bucks coach Larry Drew said. "We couldnt play him one on one. We tried different things, but he got the ball out to their shooters. We tried everything." Lopez had 20 points in the first half on near-perfect shooting. He also was a defensive presence in the low post. "I just tried to take my time in the post and really read what they were doing," Lopez said. "Just play off that." Milwaukee tried to double team Lopez, put big bodies on him, but nothing worked. He either sank the shot or made the free throw. "Thats Brook. Thats who he is," Kidd said. "Hes a guy who demands attention. Again, hes seen a lot of double teams in his young career. Hes making all the right plays. Hes letting guys get to their spots. Guys are knocking down shots." Nets forward Kevin Garnett struggled from the field, hitting just 2 of 9 shots while scoring six points, but he had two key fourth-quarter baskets. Brandon Knights two free throws with 3:54 remaining cut Brooklyns lead to 82-75. But Garnett rebounded Johnsons missed 3-pointer at the other end and scored to restore the Nets nine-point advantage. The Bucks closed to 84-78 with 2:38 left on Khris Middletons two foul shots. Lopez then got free under the basket and Johnson found him for an easy dunk, and Garnett hit a 19-foot jumper with 1:42 remaining. Johnson made a 17-foot jumper as the shot clock expired with 43.3 seconds left to put Milwaukee away. NOTES: The Nets and Bucks held a pregame moment of silence in honour South African leader Nelson Mandela, who died Thursday. ...

Louis Cardinals continued their offensive tear with a 9-5 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers in the opener of a four-game series.TORONTO -- Already missing David Clarkson, the Toronto Maple Leafs will have to get through at least the next two weeks without Nikolai Kulemin, as well. Kulemin is out with a bone chip in his ankle suffered when he blocked a shot in practice Friday. "Its just a small bone broken in the ankle," coach Randy Carlyle said. "To say its not a significant injury would be incorrect. Its one of those things." The 27-year-old right-winger could have played on the injured ankle for a month because it wasnt a displaced fracture, Carlyle said, but the team and doctors decided not to talk that chance. Kulemin is wearing a walking boot to immobilize the ankle. The Leafs called up Spencer Abbott from the AHLs Toronto Marlies to take Kulemins spot alongside Joffrey Lupul and Nazem Kadri beginning with Saturday nights home opener against the Ottawa Senators. "He had a strong training camp for us and when he went back to the Marlies in the two exhibition games, from their coaching staffs advice, he was clearly the best player on the ice," Carlyle said. "So in our minds, thats what we asked for: Who was the best player in the situation when we lost Kulemin and we need a player thats going to come in and play higher in our lineup than what we have here, so weve done that.&qquot; A couple of weeks ago it looked like the Leafs wouldnt have any shortage of options.dddddddddddd. Clarkson was slated to play big minutes on the right side, but the free-agent acquisition wont be available to play until Oct. 25 at the Columbus Blue Jackets after being suspended for the first 10 regular-season games for leaving the bench to enter an altercation in the pre-season. Toronto traded Joe Colborne, who would have likely been the top option to replace Kulemin, to the Calgary Flames for a fourth-round pick. The cap-strapped Leafs would have had to put the 23-year-old through waivers and risk losing him for nothing if they kept him around but he did not remain on the NHL roster. But those moves put the team in even more of a bind with Kulemin shelved. His spot on the penalty kill will have to be filled by committee, with Carlyle mentioning James van Riemsdyk, Dave Bolland, Mason Raymond, Carter Ashton, Troy Bodie and even Tyler Bozak as options. "Were going to need other people to step up and fill those minutes because as far as our first penalty-killing (forward) pair it was Kulemin and (Jay) McClement, so now we have to have somebody else step into that role," the Leafs coach said. Kulemin had two assists in the Leafs first two games of the season.
