“….but he won’t be able to suit up when reche caldwell needs his eyes back.” That is the line of the day.

Derozan is an avoid at all costs kind of guy. He doesn’t do anything very well. He’s supposedly athletic, yet didn’t rebound well or block shots. John Hollinger of ESPN wrote bust all over him and Hollinger is good at these kinds of things.

Chad Ford is reporting it’ll be Jennings. I’m happy with him or Flynn either way.

tc if you are talking about hansbrough, i guess i could live with a platoon at PF with him and amir. but he won’t be able to suit up when reche caldwell needs his eyes back.

i’m basing my view of jennings on the mcd’s all-american game when he had the flat top and went for the assist record. he doesn’t have iverson quickness cuz no one does, but he definitely moved at a whole different speed than anybody else on the court. i think he’s a better athlete than telfair- quickness, speed, ups, you name it. how do you guys feel about derozan? he had a solid tournament even when playing with daniel hackett, who doesn’t make anyone look good. he’s probably got a pinch of gerald green’s court awareness, but he could also wind up being an all-star(which can be said about probably five guys in the draft). so who’s the pick if hill is gone?

Funny you say that he reminds you of Telfair because I had been thinking that for a while too. I think that year in Europe does a lot of good for him in the long run though and turns him from Telfair to (with a lot of work and luck) Tiny.

They say he has Iversonian quickness. He also looks like he has the frame to add weight with success. We’ll see I guess.

nah, you aint crazy. except on Jennings (he seems like he’s the second coming of Sebastian Telfair). To be honest, I find it funny some people are saying the Bucks traded their best player…cus IMO that’s Bogut, followed by Sessions. RJ looked as streaky, as Charlie usually does, if not moreso. Nothin against the guy personally, but I won’t miss those nights he jacks up 10 threes and only makes 1.
I’m iffy on Hill, cus I suspect his numbers this past season were the result of not having to deal with Kevin Love or Brook Lopez for a year. Could be legit, could be Marcus Haislip II, we’ll see. then again I’m also not convinced Flynn would be a good pick. I mean, I don’t want the guy to fail if he is the pick, but most of what’s said about him sounds like a less experienced version of Ramon. Reminds me of the Isiah-era Knicks having three guys who basically did the same thing (Marbury, Francis, Crawford) and not enough PT or balls to go around. Funny thing is one of the guys I’d be very comfortable with the Bucks taking could be had in a draft and trade. Heh, most good teams have at least one guy who’s a little crazy, the Bucks may as well get themselves a psycho.

It’s universal…no one wants BJ Mullens except NBA general managers.

I must say I was excited by the trade. We essentially traded rj(i wish it would’ve been redd) for the chance to sign one of the FA (preferably Sessions) and Amir Johnson, an athletic PF with potential. It looks like a horrible trade but helps the franchise greatly in the long run money-wise. Maybe I’m crazy but I think Sessions is the pg of the future for Milwaukee. As for the draft, I think the players they should target, in order, are- Hill, Jennings(risky but could be an all-star), DeRozan (showed flashes in a pretty screwy situation), Flynn/Holiday(toss-up) and and anybody not named BJ Mullens.

The cycle continues…………………the Bucks have the look of a team until injuries hurt them last season, but as usual they dump one of the best players they have. The three stooges they picked up will just be added weight to the end of the bench, with Danny G.
REBUILD, that should be the Bucks new name, The Milwaukee Rebuilds.
I can’t wait for the draft……………………
