Game StoryPHILADELPHIA (Ticker) -- The Philadelphia 76ers found a way to win without Allen Iverson or a good start. Greg Buckner scored 10 of his season-high 20 points in the fourth quarter as the 76ers overcame the absence of their best player for a 97-92 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks. Philadelphia announced before the game that Iverson would miss at least two games with a right knee injury. The All-Star guard underwent an MRI earlier Monday that was negative. The 76ers, who also were without former Buck Glenn Robinson, went out and offered little resistance early. The Bucks shot a sizzling 64 percent (25-of-39) and led by as many as 20 points in the first half before settling for a 57-44 halftime bulge. Buckner and Eric Snow helped Philadelphia rally by combining for 11 points in a 14-2 surge that opened the fourth quarter and established an 83-76 lead with 7:22 remaining. "When it comes down to crunch time this time of year, with everybody trying to get to the playoffs, you have to play defense and rebound to get that opportunity," Buckner said. "Offense is going to come if you play well enough. With defense, you create offense off your defense. And guys have to be ready when their number is called." Michael Redd's 3-pointer cut the deficit to 95-92 with 47 seconds left and the Bucks got back the ball after John Salmons missed a shot from the arc. Redd drove to the basket, missed an easy layup, ran down the rebound and fired up an airball from the 3-point arc with 13 seconds to go. "I missed the layup and the ball bounced my way again," Redd said. "I thought that the shot clock was coming down so, I hoisted it. We should have never have been in that position and it's frustrating." Zendon Hamilton, who scored 19 points, clinched the win with two foul shots. Philadelphia has won back-to-back games for the first time since January 7-9. "We got after it defensively, Zendon Hamilton and Greg Buckner came in and gave us big lifts, both defensively and offensively," Philadelphia coach Chris Ford said. "One of the things I said when I took the job - professionalism. Buckner hasn't seen the light of day in a while and he stayed mentally ready and worked on his game." The shorthanded 76ers received a total team effort. Snow finished with 17 points and 12 assists and Kenny Thomas collected 14 points and 15 boards. Redd scored 20 points and reserve Desmond Mason added 18 for Milwaukee, which shot 32 percent (10-of-31) in the second half. "There was no way in the world we should have lost that game," Redd said. "Once again, this is one of those games that hurts us." The Bucks concluded a four-game road trip with a third straight loss.
