The lottery has been decided. The Milwaukee Bucks will pick 12th, which was 97% likely, so no one should be surprised. In general, yesterday was miserably disappointing and predictable. I told myself I wouldn’t even watch the envelopes on display. Why bother? Math told me nothing exciting would happen, especially when it came to the [...]
Could Scott Skiles possibly be the next coach of the Orlando Magic? Gery Woelfel sure hopes so and thinks Skiles would welcome the idea too. Those who know Skiles well insist he would crawl to Orlando to be the Magic’s coach. Skiles not only has a house in the Orlando area but he played five [...]
Hope everyone has a nice, safe Memorial Day Weekend. This is a shirt Brandon Jennings was wearing, apparently to celebrate the NFL, possibly Hawaii and certainly eccentricity.
If you watch a lot of NBA playoff games, there’s a good chance you watch a lot of Jim Goldstein. If you’ve seen The Big Lebowski, you’ve seen his house. If you’ve been in Europe lately, you’ve probably seen his face on a shirt. The man is a legend in his own time. And he’s [...]
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you already know that the Bradley Center is now the BMO Harris Bradley Center. Whether people still call it the BC, go to BBC, or call it “The Bank”, remains to be seen but what’s huge about this name change is that it gives the arena enough capital [...]
From the Bradley Center BMO Harris Bradley Center: The Metropolitan Milwaukee Association of Commerce, the Bradley Center, the Milwaukee Bucks and BMO Harris Bank today announced a naming sponsorship by BMO Harris Bank that will expand the name of the building to the BMO Harris Bradley Center. The updated name will take effect immediately, with [...]
We established that Todd Day was the 19th best Bucks player of the past 20 years. So don’t worry, I’m doing a solid and putting a link to the last remaining Todd Day Starting Lineup figurineright here. But apparently this is the last one left, so don’t delay. I’ll check this post again next year [...]
Brandon Jennings hit the modest individual shooting goal he laid out for himself before the 2011-12 season. In fact, were it not for a miserable month of February that seemed to be the perfect storm of attitude and inaccuracy, Jennings would have blown past the 40% shooting mark with ease. After shooting better than 44% [...]
Decisions have been rolling in lately. Scott Skiles will be the Bucks coach. John Hammond will (probably) be the GM. And Herb Kohl will build the Bucks a new stadium with his own money and bare hands. Or something along those lines. The Milwaukee Bucks roster though, will be in a state of flux over [...]
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. [...]
2012 Player Capsules: Monta Ellis
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 [...]
