Welcome to March, the last full month of the NBA regular season. At the moment, the Milwaukee Bucks are the eighth seed in the Eastern Conference, a game and a half behind the Boston Celtics for the seventh seed and three and a half games behind the Chicago Bulls for the sixth seed. Both the [...]
At first, this introduction to Buck Hits was super pessimistic. But then I remembered that it’s 2013. Fresh starts. New beginnings. 2012 pessimism is so 2012. So, instead of talking about sad things (like this), let’s talk about John Henson and how much we love him. Isn’t he great!? Watch him learn how to dance! So fun! [...]
As a Milwaukee Bucks fan, many of us know that excitement is often quickly followed by disappointment. The losses this week to the Charlotte Bobcats and Miami Heat provided that disappointment, but it shouldn’t be too severe. The Bobcats loss was marred by questionable foul calls late and not every team is capable of taking [...]

2012 Player Capsules: Samuel Dalembert
