The release from the Milwaukee Bucks: The Milwaukee Bucks have requested waivers on guard Roko Ukic (6-5, 190), General Manager John Hammond announced today. Ukic requested to have [...]
Recap/Box Score I’m just going to throw these numbers out there and let you take a look at them. 52.5 percent shooting, 42.9 from behind the arc, 24-28 at the free throw line and 24 assists to nine turnovers . You’re thinking that the Bucks gave up another strong performance again and their defense still [...]
Recap/Box Score I haven’t heard, but can already hear Bucks fans lamenting the Bucks lack of energy in Sunday’s loss to Cleveland. After all, isn’t that typically what gets the blame when a team gets smoked? Effort and energy get cited in big losses more than alcohol in DUI’s. But I can’t help but think [...]
But if the Bucks are looking for any additional fire power now that they’ve lost someone they expected to be their leading scorer coming into the year, this might be Jodie Meeks big break.
After the defections of the Milwaukee Hawks in 1955 and the Milwaukee Braves in 1965 Milwaukee was left without a big league team. This didn’t sit well with Fishman. He knew Milwaukee was a big league town with big league fans. Milwaukee represented themselves well with a baseball exhibition in 1967 drawing over 50,000 fans.

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 [...]
