The Miami Heat are a super cool team to watch (unless they are destroying the team you root for. So much talent, so much opportunity for big men. Joel Anthony has thrived there. Chris Andersen pretty much came back from an NBA grave to flourish in the second half this season. Playing with LeBron James [...]
Lonely Bucks fan watches game in Miami, becomes a Witness. (AP Photo/Alan Diaz) I’m not sure what caused it, but I felt some sort of feeling before Sunday’s playoff opener for the Milwaukee Bucks. As I waited what felt like forever for the day games to wrap up and Milwaukee to take the court Sunday [...]
I was talking to someone at work the other day and they talked to me about problem solving, problem spotting and problem acceptance. There are some people who see problems and complain about them without countering with a solution, people who see problems and work to solve them and people who decide some problems may [...]
An off-season spent unable to workout. Absences in both training camp and the early part of the regular season. Turf toe in March. A virus that’s left him hampered. Career low numbers in shooting percentage, free throw percentage, minutes per game, rebounds per game and pretty much everything else. It’s been a tough year for [...]
Somehow the 2012-13 regular season is over and somehow the Milwaukee Bucks are in the playoffs with a record of 38-44. They’ll open their postseason this Sunday in Miami and they’ll probably end their postseason next Sunday in Milwaukee. Hopefully this series with the Heat is more entertaining than embarrassing and hopefully these are the [...]
But really they don’t start until Sunday. At least for the Milwaukee Bucks and Miami Heat. The official schedule: Game 1 @ MIA – Sun 4/21 6pm Game 2 @ MIA – Tue 4/23 6:30pm Game 3 @ MIL – Thu 4/25 6pm Game 4 @ MIL – Sun 4/28 2:30pm I’d go further, but [...]
I don’t live far from the BMO Harris Bradley Center. Thus, I walk to games. In the winter, the walk ranges from annoying to nearly unbearable, depending on wind, snow and slush. I hate slush. With snow you get the possibilities of sledding or snowboarding or skiing, whatever you’re into. At the very least, there’s [...]
For a second, it seemed like the Milwaukee Bucks were going to pull off an improbable home upset of the still definitely playing for something Denver Nuggets on Monday night. The Bucks had trailed most of the game, but never fell completely out of reach of a dangerous Denver team. But the lead changed hands [...]

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 [...]
