The Milwaukee Bucks have certainly had better weeks of basketball. ..Yes, I’ll (briefly, I’ll let someone else write a reaction) get to Skiles. A quick look back, though. After winning the NBA title conquering the world beating the Heat on December 29th, the Bucks have regressed quite a bit, dropping their last four contests in [...]

2012 Player Capsules: Brandon Jennings
