MILWAUKEE -- The Chicago Bulls wont have to wait long to get another chance at the Milwaukee Bucks.Twenty-four hours after the Bucks handed Chicago a 108-97 loss, the two teams will meet again in Chicago on the back end of a home-and-home series.Chicago came out flat early against Milwaukee and never led in the contest, though the Bulls did manage a late surge before falling for the second game in a row and fifth time in their past seven.I would have hoped we had solved the playing half a game or three quarters of a game, Bulls coach Fred Hoiberg said after his team gave up 25 points on 17 turnovers and went 5 of 19 from 3-point distance. We played the fourth quarter the way you have to play the entire game.Giannis Antetokounmpo and Jabari Parker continued their hot streak for Milwaukee on Thursday, combining for 58 points on 24-of-46 shooting in the victory.They rank first and second in scoring on the team this season. Antetokounmpo, who finished with 30 on Thursday, is averaging 22.3 points, while Parker is adding 19.4 a night. However, coach Jason Kidd says those numbers only tell part of the story.If were just being judged on points, then theyre playing really well, Kidd said. But its not all about points. Unfortunately, thats all you guys write about. Its a team game, but it comes down to winning and doing your job.Kidd was quick to mention that Parker finished with three assists Thursday. The forward is averaging 2.1 helpers per game this season and has been quick to make the extra pass to keep Milwaukees offense flowing.Sometimes it goes unnoticed that he passes the ball as well as Giannis, Kidd said.Stopping those two will be key for the Bulls, who will also need to find a way to limit their turnovers and prevent Milwaukee from enjoying another 11-of-20 showing from beyond the 3-point arc.They made eight threes in the first half; that is not on our scouting report for them to make eight threes, Chicago guard Dwyane Wade said. Then they also got transition points, so they got everything they wanted early in the first half.We are going to have to play better defensively tomorrow against this team.Parker especially is looking forward to facing the Bulls. He grew up on the south side of Chicago, not far from the United Center.Thats the game I circle on my calendar beyond any other game just because Im a kid from the city, Parker said. I grew up watching them, and thats something thats in my pride to try my best against the Bulls.The Bucks are again expected to be without swingman Michael Beasley, who sat out the Thursday game due to a sore foot.With Beasley out, Mirza Teletovic was first off the bench and saw nearly 20 minutes of action. He went 5 of 10 from the field with three 3-pointers and finished with 13 points.It shows our depth, Kidd said. When somebody is down, somebody else has to step up, and Mirza did that tonight for us. He was big. He had some shots he normally makes that he missed tonight, but were going to need that again from him tomorrow night.Milwaukee has dropped five consecutive contests at the United Center.

WASHINGTON -- U.S. Olympic medal winners will soon get a tax break, but not everyone thinks getting rid of the so-called victory tax is a good idea.I promise you, this is bad policy, said Rep. Jim Himes, D-Conn., who cast the lone vote against a bill that would block the IRS from taxing most Olympic winnings.President Barack Obama is expected to sign the measure, which repeals a tax on cash prizes awarded to U.S. medal winners: $25,000 for gold, $15,000 for silver and $10,000 for bronze.The measure sailed through the House and Senate, winning final approval Thursday just as Obama welcomed several hundred members of the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic teams to the White House. The U.S. won 121 medals at the Rio Olympics, including 46 gold medals.A former college rower who once tried out for the U.S. national team, Himes said he has nothing against the Olympics or Olympic athletes. But he called the tax measure a feel-good bill that unnecessarily complicates an already complex tax code.Whats next? he asked. Tax exemptions for Nobel Prize winners? Astronauts? Inner-city teachers? This is no way to make tax policy: I feel good so Ill give you a tax break.Supporters call the bill a matter of fairness.Under current law, athletes who return home with a medal for Team USA must pay a penalty for their success, said Rep. Robert Dold, R-Ill., the bills chief House sponsor. The bipartisan bill ensures that these athletes can remain ffocused on fulfilling their Olympic and Paralympic dreams without the fear of getting a huge tax bill in the mail, Dold said.dddddddddddd.Many countries subsidize their Olympic athletes, added Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. The least we can do is make sure our athletes dont get hit with a tax bill for winning a medal, he said.The bill was amended in the House to allow taxes on high-profile athletes such as swimmer Michael Phelps who earn more than $1 million a year.Himes applauded the change, but said the bill remains an election-year stunt.Its an unpopular Congress trying to bask in the reflected glory of Olympic heroes. But its still bad policy, he said.While no other lawmaker voted against the bill, several have told him privately I wish Id been with you, Himes said.John Shaban, a Republican who is running against Himes, said the Democrats vote showed he was disconnected from the sentiment of the country and the rest of the Congress.Really is that how bad things are? That we have to tax the Olympic athletes on their medals, Shaban told the Hartford Courant.Himes and other Democrats spend all their time beating up on the one presidential candidate who says how we never win anymore. And if we do win theyre going to tax you, Shaban said.---Follow Matthew Daly: https://twitter.com/MatthewDalyWDC ' ' '
