With the dust finally settling on what was perhaps their most turbulent week of the National Basketball Association season, the Milwaukee Bucks were able to find some common ground Wednesday.

The Bucks - coach George Karl and players alike - agreed on the fact that, after a four-day layoff in the schedule, it was definitely time to pull on the uniforms again and play a game.

OK, so maybe that accord doesn't exactly rank up there with the Paris peace talks, but when Karl's crew does find itself on the same page about anything lately, it's worthy of a mention.

The Bucks contend that, despite the tumultuous events of this week, they will be of a proper mind-set when they take on the Memphis Grizzlies tonight at the Bradley Center, the final game before the all-star break.
