MILWAUKEE — The Milwaukee Bucks were stranded in New Orleans amid a historic snowstorm for so long that they got to know the staffers working in their hotel. They finally got back to Milwaukee less than three hours before the start of their Thursday night game. Then they calmly trounced the Miami Heat 125-96 for their fifth consecutive victory. Now they prepare to board a flight Friday morning to begin a four-game trip that starts Saturday against the Los Angeles Clippers.
