ATLANTA -- Paul Millsap was proud of how well the Atlanta Hawks adjusted with Dwight Howard and Thabo Sefolosha unable to play because of injuries.We have a deep team, he said. It says a lot about our bench and what they bring, that they came in and did a great job and really set the tone for us, especially in the second quarter.Millsap scored 21 points, Mike Muscala added 16 and the Hawks won their sixth straight game, a 107-100 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday night.Giannis Antetokounmpo had 26 points and 15 rebounds, and Jabari Parker scored 15 of his 23 points in the third quarter for Milwaukee.Muscala started in place of Howard, who was sidelined with a left quadriceps contusion. The Hawks improved to 6-1 at home and tied Cleveland for the best record in the Eastern Conference at 9-2.Atlantas bench, led by 13 points from Tim Hardaway Jr., outscored the Bucks 35-25.The defense was amazing, Millsap said. The second group came in and moved the basketball. We played how were supposed to play.The Bucks, who have lost three of four, pulled within four points on Antetokounmpos dunk with 37 seconds remaining, but Millsap hit a layup on the next possession to make it 104-98.Milwaukee ended the first quarter with a 26-21 lead but missed their next 11 shots and didnt score until the 5:50 mark of the second. They were outscored 31-9 in the period and went 3 for 27 from the field.Atlanta took its biggest lead at 24 points on Dennis Schroders 3-pointer early in the third, but Milwaukee scored 35 points in the third quarter and pulled within six with 9:06 remaining on Mirza Teletovics third 3 of the period.It was definitely a character game for a young team to come back and put themselves in that position on the road, Bucks coach Jason Kidd said. With 4 minutes left, it was anybodys ballgame. Again, tip your hat to Atlanta. They made the shots and got the stops when they had to.Antetokounmpos layup cut the lead to three a couple of possessions later at the 6:24 mark. That was as close as the Bucks could get.Our backs were on the wall, so we had no other choice but to be aggressive if we wanted to try to make it close, Parker said. Those are still good habits to have leading into the next game. But we know from our mistakes that we cant play the first half like we did.The Hawks improved to 8-1 when leading after three quarters.Schroder and Kent Bazemore scored 12 points each for Atlanta.NEED THE RESTHoward was injured in the third quarter Tuesday at Miami, banging knees with Heat center Hassan Whiteside. He did not return and was unable to watch Wednesdays game from the bench.Howard, the active career NBA leader in double-doubles, is averaging 14.8 points and 12.3 rebounds. The eight-time All-Star in his first season with Atlanta.Sefolosha, a reserve forward and the teams best defender, did not play because of a strained right hamstring.His and Howards absence helped the Bucks outscore Atlanta 50-28 in the paint.SHOWING POTENTIALDuring a 6-minute stretch of Atlantas 19-0 run in the second, rookie forward Taurean Prince was the catalyst. He blocked two shots, drew a foul, made two free throws, had three rebounds, a steal and a hard baseline dunk.Prince, the NBAs No. 12 overall draft pick out of Baylor, finished with eight points and five rebounds in a career-high 19 minutes.I thought Taurean was great, Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer said. Just the physicality he plays with, the aggressiveness he plays with, he really gave us a big boost on both ends of the floor.UP NEXTBucks: Visit Miami on Thursday.Hawks: Visit Charlotte on Friday.

Its been two seasons in the making but Melbourne are ready to reap the rewards of recruiting a power forward pack.Storm skipper Cameron Smith went to club officials at the end of 2014 requesting they add some size to help the likes of emerging star prop Jesse Bromwich.Smith believed that the best NRL teams had the biggest packs, who took the sting out of the defence and opened up opportunities for the playmakers.Along with youngsters already at the club like Jordan McLean, the result is that the Storm now boast one of the most formidable packs in the NRL.Nelson Asofa-Solomona stands 200cm and 115kg, Bromwich, is 194cm and 114kg, while McLean is 196cm and 115kg.With the exception of Smith, all of the Storm forwards weigh in at over 100kg with former Bulldog Dale Finucane the lightest at 102kg.McLean said increase in size had boosted the teams confidence.Its definitely more confidence that you take in with having bigger players beside you, McLean said.The 24-year-old said the Storm bench had the same standards as the starters, which had made the transition seamless this season.We spoke in the pre-season about not letting the standards drop once the starting front-rowers are off the field, so I dont really think you can tell the difference between the starting and the bench players at tthe moment.dddddddddddd.McLean said Bromwich, as the competitions best forward, had set a benchmark for his teammates.He said he had tried to add some more skills to his own game.I suppose playing alongside Jesse, hes got a lot of the ability.Ive tried to do a few little things at training just so Im not a one-dimensional, old-school front-rower running straight and them picking me off straight away. So Ive got to try to give myself something.McLeans game in the Storms qualifying win over North Queensland had commentators talking him up as a Kangaroos bolter.Having so far only played for Country, McLean wasnt getting too far ahead of himself.I dont dream too far ahead, but if I ever got the chance Id stick my hand up for it, he said.For the time being its just for the Storm and the week ahead.SIZE MATTERS:-Height and weight of the Storm forwards:Nelson Asofa-Solomona - 200cm, 115kgJesse Bromwich - 194cm, 114kgMatt White - 196cm, 113kgJordan McLean - 196cm , 115kgTohu Harris - 195cm, 112kgDale Finucane - 188cm, 102kgKenny Bromwich - 183cm, 105kgTim Glasby - 188cm, 104kgFelice Kaufusi - 189cm, 109kgKevin Proctor - 189cm, 105kgChristian Welch - 188cm, 105kg.
