After the Milwaukee Bucks suffered their fourth straight defeat Saturday, a lopsided 117-91 loss to the Detroit Pistons at the Bradley Center, Bucks' Coach Larry Krystkowiak and the rest of the coaching staff met with players in the locker room to talk out some issues, in a meeting that lasted nearly 30 minutes.

"We've got to challenge ourselves every possession, every game," Bucks' guard Michael Redd said. "You've got to play with intensity if you're going to be a championship team, and we've not done it."

The Bucks were riding high just a week ago with a five-game winning streak, punctuated by home-court victories over the Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas. But everything has come unraveled in a woeful week, with losses to Philadelphia, Atlanta, New York and the Pistons.

"We don't want it spiraling down to where it was last year, the atmosphere of losing," Redd said.
