The Bucks can’t dwell on blowing their chance to knock off the division leading Bulls Saturday night. Not when they face the 9th seed Charlotte Bobcats tonight in the race to 8th. A win tonight would knot up the Bucks and Cats at a woeful 30-43. Disregarding being 13 games under, that would put the [...]
Slow couple of days for Bucks camp. The team watched the Pacers go an additional 1/2 game up in the Race to the 8th with a win against the Pacers. The playoff picture could change drastically tonight, with the Bucks at home against Sacramento, a (hopefully) very winnable game. Just as important is the matchup [...]
The rollercoaster that is the Bucks’ season continued this weekend, seeing the Bucks dump the Nets, and lead wire-to-wire against the Knicks. The Bucks sit 1.5 games behind the Pacers for the last playoff spot, and have the exact record as Charlotte. That said, the Bucks cannot do better than a .500 season with 41 [...]
Bad news for the Bucks: they are once again 2.5 games back from the 8th final seed for this year’s playoffs. Expert analysis: John Hollinger gives them about a 17% chance of making it. After three strong games, the Bucks are now faced with back to back blowouts on the losing end, and the bleeding may [...]
Enemy: Cavs: The Blog Point Guard Brandon Jennings vs. Ramon Sessions The buzz around the internets the last few games surrounded Jennings positive performances while Andrew Bogut was down, and were concerned about the cohesion between the two players. When Bogut returned to the team yesterday against the Wizards, Jennings continued his strong play. He [...]
Anyone still holding onto hope that we’ll see a repeat of last year’s run need not look further than the Bucks’ 3rd quarters in their last two outings. A 19-0 run on Friday and being on the losing end of a 26-16 3rd quarter last night pretty much sums up the Bucks season. If you had [...]
The Bucks got a victory at home last night against the Pistons, a move that’ll surely dash lottery hopes for the pro-tankers and keep the faith alive for the pro-first round exiters. Recap 02/22/11 Bucks v. Pistons Box Score Analysis: JSOnline, Brewhoop Game Notes: The Bucks were without Bogut, Moute, and Ilyasova, and managed to come away [...]
Not much to say about these Bucks nowadays. Losing is the norm. Our local faithful are the only ones still talking, and what they’re saying isn’t pretty. After a preseason of high hopes, new hopes of a high draft pick are funneling in. Here’s what else is going on in the world of the Milwaukee [...]
The All-Star break is over, and after watching the game last night, it’s clear that no fire has been lit under this Bucks team. Sure, they got the win, but Bucks fans were hoping to start the second half with a bang. A six point victory over the 13-44 Wolves isn’t inspiring anyone, but you [...]
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 [...]
