The Bucks are projected to be in a tight race for the last playoff spot with a few teams, among them the Toronto Raptors. It doesn’t bode well for the Bucks playoff chances when the Raptors best player outclasses the team cornerstone that is Brandon Jennings in nearly every way. Kyle Lowry is the embodiment [...]
Recap/Box Score/Enemy The line has been drawn in the sand. In the Eastern Conference, there’s really good teams (Boston, Miami and Chicago), good teams (Atlanta, Orlando) first round playoff exit teams (New York, Philadelphia, Indiana, Charlotte, Milwaukee and Detroit) and then the really bad teams (New Jersey, Toronto, Washington and Cleveland). With only four really [...]
Recap/Box Score I know the Bucks have been inconsistent this year, hell, I write about it every game. So glancing at a box score and seeing some shaky performances doesn’t really faze me anymore. But they took inconsistency to a whole new level in Friday night’s loss to the Raptors. After playing what I thought [...]
The Bucks don’t do a lot of back to backing, at least they haven’t yet this year. After the up-coming couplet with Toronto, the Bucks have double takes with Miami and Washington later on this year. In the interest of avoiding repetitiveness, this preview is intended to cover the both of the Raptors games. In [...]

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 [...]
