Tonight, the Milwaukee Bucks are back in action against the Washington Wizards. It will likely be a thrilling match between a team that refuses to rebuild and a team that can only rebuild. It’s too bad the NBA doesn’t engage in the hijinx like the average television sitcom from the 1990s. Under those circumstances, we [...]
And so it is. The Bucks season is at the official halfway point, and it’s not pretty. Losers of 7 of their last 10 along with a 6 game home losing streak, the Bucks are 7 games below .500 and 10th in the Eastern Conference playoff picture. A break from Bucks basketball is good for [...]

There has never been a better time to trade Ersan Ilyasova. *ducks* Milwaukee reportedly was peddling the Turkish forward before the draft last season, but couldn’t find an offer to their liking. What exactly would have been to their liking is up for debate, but a first round pick was probably the minimum they would [...]

29 points. 25 rebounds. Most importantly, a reason for us to think something is cool again. In an otherwise boring game, Ersan Ilyasova played the finest basketball of his career. Ersan set a new career high in points and rebounds and achieved all kinds of other cool accomplishments in doing so. Hat tip to the Milwaukee Bucks [...]

2012 Player Capsules: Brandon Jennings
I’m not sure we’ll ever know what happened with Brandon Jennings in early February last season. Milwaukee’s premiere guard was cruising along through the first third of the lockout shortened 2011-12 season. Despite a road heavy early season schedule, Jennings was producing at a level far better than he had in his first two seasons. [...]

There was a trade in the NBA this weekend. You may have heard. The Oklahoma City Thunder made an expectation defying deal that will undoubtedly either end up a brilliant reminder of how smart you have to be to succeed in a small market or a sobering lesson on why small market teams can’t thrive in today’s [...]
2012 Player Capsules: Samuel Dalembert
“I want the team to be one of the top defensive teams. I’ve been to so many training camps and seen coaches focusing on offense, offense, offense. We came here and I’m like, ‘Wow.’ I wanted to hug coach (Scott Skiles). For the first time in seven years, the Milwaukee Bucks starting center isn’t Andrew [...]
2012 Player Capsules: John Henson
From every indication, John Henson is ready to play defense in the NBA. For his sake, I hope that’s true. Because his capability to play defense this year could have quite an impact on his career. Henson is probably going to land on his feet no matter what. He was a very highly regarded high [...]
