Milwaukee Bucks 100 Final Recap | Box Score 86 New York Knicks Shaun Livingston, PG 34 MIN | 7-10 FG | 4-4 FT | 5 REB | 3 AST | 18 PTS | +22 Livingston has a very specific game and he executed it tonight. In his first start of the season for the suspended [...]
San Antonio Spurs 103 Final Recap | Box Score 106 Milwaukee Bucks Stephen Jackson, SG 42 MIN | 12-17 FG | 7-7 FT | 1 REB | 8 AST | 34 PTS | -1 This is as good as it gets for Stephen Jackson. Don’t take that as me saying it can’t happen again. Just [...]
This year is very quickly spiraling into last year. Losing to the suddenly mighty Clippers itself isn’t real cause for concern. That 36.3% number from the field that’s becoming commonplace once again? That’s an eye-catcher in the same way a black spot on a broken television is. But it’s not striking me as the root [...]
Milwaukee Bucks 73 Final Recap | Box Score 85 Utah Jazz Stephen Jackson, SG 5-17 FG | 5-6 FT | 6 REB | 4 AST | 16 PTS | -12 Things did not go well for Jackson. He’s holding the ball a ton over the past two games after making quick decisions over and over [...]
Without some sort of portal into his head ala Being John Malkovich, we’ll never know truly how much one thing or the next impacts the performance of Ersan Ilyasova. It’s easy to speculate on his mental state, on his confidence. We can’t say for sure though. But it’s easy to see how the performance of [...]
John Hammond announced Tuesday that the Milwaukee Bucks will pick up the third year, $3.5 million option on Carlos Delfino. In his second year as a Buck, the small forward averaged a career high 11.5 points on 39% shooting from the field and 37% shooting from three. Delfino led the Bucks in three-point field goals [...]
Part two, The Negatives, of Josh Hilgendorf’s Bucksketball debut breaking down Bucks forwards this past season. Now that I am done squinting my eyes trying to find something positive about the Bucks forward play this season, I can relax a little bit and let the players do most of the work for me. This is [...]
Yesterday, there were two. Today, there are three. Meet the second of Bucksketball.com’s new contributors, Josh Hilgendorf. Josh has been spreading the gospel of Bucks in Madison since the team’s distant memory of a sprint to the Eastern Conference Finals in 2001. He writes constantly and will now be doing so more about the Bucks [...]
Goin’ alphabetical this season. First half today, second half tomorrow. Enjoy. Earl Barron Once finished a play Coming out of timeout. Sad. Clear role, in swamp O. He was only in Milwaukee briefly, playing in seven March games, but he did well what he does. He crashed the offensive glass and made mid-range jumpers. He [...]
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 [...]
