With Scott Skiles and the Milwaukee Bucks reportedly walking away from each other sometime yesterday, we’re all still left with more questions than answers. Specifically, here are three questions that could go a long ways towards deciding how the rest of this season and possibly a big part of the future plays out for the [...]
Twas the night before Christmas, in the Bucks locker room Team practice had ended in mid afternoon After showers, getting dressed, and beginning goodbyes The doors swung open, and in entered a surprise A man with a beard and a shiny bald head Tossed a bag on the floor, quite lumpy and red “Alright, [...]
Hey look – A preview! The Milwaukee Bucks are big time tonight. Milwaukee traveled to Memphis last night and will take on the Grizzlies in the second game of ESPN’s Wednesday night doubleheader. The 8:30 (CST) start time should be well worth the wait for Bucks fans who’ve been waiting to get back on a [...]
Sacramento Kings 85 FinalRecap | Box Score 98 Milwaukee Bucks Luc Richard Mbah a Moute, PF 26 MIN | 6-10 FG | 5-7 FT | 6 REB | 1 AST | 17 PTS | +4 There’s one thing that Mbah a Moute does exceedingly well offensively. Cut to the hoop. Seven shots within the restricted [...]
Samuel Dalembert and Ersan Ilyasova. Joel Przybilla and Ilyasova. Dalembert and John Henson. Ekpe Udoh and Henson. Larry Sanders and Udoh. Through 19 games, the Milwaukee Bucks have used five different starting front court combinations and countless other lineup pairings. Enough to make fans go crazy and writers take notice. But there’s reason to the [...]
This is a pretty easy preview. The Milwaukee Bucks should do the things they sucked at on Saturday better. Boom. I’ve saved you guys a few minutes of reading the next few paragraphs. The two things the Bulls won overwhelmingly on Saturday: free throws and rebounding. They will not win either of these battles tonight. [...]
It all started with Ekpe Udoh. I wanted to see what he would look like with the head of a deer. I called him Ekpe Udoe. Then, I thought, “what would Doron Lamb look like with the head of a lamb?” Then, I lost the next four hours of my life. Below these words you [...]
Milwaukee Bucks 106 FinalRecap | Box Score 113 Miami Heat Ersan Ilyasova, SF 17 MIN | 2-7 FG | 0-0 FT | 1 REB | 0 AST | 4 PTS | -6Things are getting ugly. Tobias Harris, SF 24 MIN | 4-8 FG | 2-2 FT | 6 REB | 1 AST | 11 PTS [...]

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 [...]
