By noreply@blogger.com (TCW) 1. The Bucks do not have a single player on the roster who has played above average basketball at small forward. Starter Richard Jefferson has recently dipped below average, and every backup: Michael Redd, Luc Moute, Charlie Bell, and Joe Alexander, has produced below the opposition when...

By noreply@blogger.com (FLCeltsFan) LOL at the crowd chanting for Scalabrine to shoot. There's one player worse than Gadz. I'm a little upset because it really felt like the Bucks just handed this game to the Celtics with some awful point guard play. I felt ill watching that fourth quarter and the way we handed it to the Celtics.

By noreply@blogger.com (TCW) 3. Ramon Sessions. Skiles, in the Dennis Krause interview I saw, never mentioned point guard Ramon Sessions' name. But he kept talking about veteran point guard Luke Ridnour, and how great Ridnour was because he was a "pass first" PG (editorial comment: never mind the damage Ridnour's lack...

By dberri As I noted a few weeks ago (see At Least We Have the Bucks), the Milwaukee Bucks were led by three players in 2006-07 and 2007-08: Andrew Bogut, Mo Williams, and Michael Redd.  These three players produced 63.4% of the team's wins two years ago (Ruben Patterson produced another 29.6% of the tea...

By noreply@blogger.com (TCW) Hammond on Cable 32 The one encouraging thing I heard from Hammond was his insinuation that the point guard minutes will be distributed by merit rather than salary. That means the rising young quarterback Ramon Sessions ought to get a fair shot to unseat the defenseless Mo Williams.

By noreply@blogger.com (TCW) What makes the basketball analytical writing sphere so great, too, is that it is a conversation, not a competition. This isn't the race to split the atom. We are all having fun trying to develop better ways to analyze and understand this great game of basketball -- the people's sport.

By Blogmaster Stories are circulating suggesting that if the Bucks do not accomodate Yi and trade him to a large market team as his agent has demanded, then Yi has some unique options he will exercise that will make it painless for him to extinguish the Bucks draft rights.

The Milwaukee Bucks picked up the final option years on the contracts of center Andrew Bogut and forward Charlie Villanueva.

It appears as though he could upgrade the Bucks significantly at that key position. I love his lightning quickness and unmatched s...

By David Friedman LeBron James had 24 points, nine assists and five rebounds as the Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the Milwaukee Bucks 109-96 at Quicken Loans Arena. Earl Boykins led Milwaukee with 28 points and seven assists. Cleveland's win, coupled with New Jersey beating Chicago 106-97 and Washington edging Indiana 98-95, moved the Cavs up to the second seed in the East and dropped Chicago from second to fifth. Cleveland will play Washington in the first round, a rematch of last year's first round--but the depleted Wizards will be without the services of Gilbert Arenas and Caron Butler. Chicago could have earned that seemingly easy matchup simply by winning in New Jersey; now the Bulls will have to face the defending champion Miami Heat in the first rou...   [read the full post]
