They haven't known what they are doing for about 10 years now, therein lies the problem. Just a rudderless ship.

WHAT THEY'RE SAYING AROUND THE WEB

ESPN
April 18 Update: Adetokunbo is a bit of a mystery man. A long, athletic point forward playing in the fourth division in Greece. While no one knows what he'll be like playing against top competition and warn that he's a year or two away from even being ready for the D-League, they see the skill set and size and fell like in a draft filled with little upside, he might be worth taking a gamble on.

DRAFT EXPRESS
Exceptionally smooth and fluid, Adetokunbo still hasn't reached his full potential as an athlete, which makes sense if you consider he turned 18 three months ago and has grown 8 cm (a little over three inches) in the past ten months—and still might not be done growing. He's still working on his balance on the defensive end, and isn't an incredibly explosive leaper—something that could change as his lower body strength improves.

It's popular to say that a prospect--particularly an obscure one-- “plays every position on the floor,” but in the game we watched in Greece, that was indeed the case. The competition level, as you can see in the video scouting report above, is indeed nothing to write home about, but it's difficult not to be taken aback by the incredibly versatile skill-set Adetokunbo brings to the table at 6-9.

I really hate this team and the entire ownership and management groups. No fucking direction!!!


Edit: If this was the direction that you were going to go, why would you trade away Tobias Harris?

I read comments that he definitely wants Jennings back, and will get started right away on making it happen.

another "guy"

i think Corey Magette may be available

That's probably their best free agent acquisition in over a decade.

I think he started a few months ago with the Tobias Harris trade.

yeah, i know....

i was looking back at their rosters from the last few years trying to find a decent one...check out this roster from 04-05.....what a giant pile of garbage
i know Redd was good at that time....but Fizer? Anthony Goldwire? Calvin Booth? wowwwwww
i'm surprised this team even won 30 games

52 Calvin Booth P
21 Marcus Fizer F
50 Dan Gadzuric C
34 Reece Gaines PG
12 Kendall Gill SG
5 Anthony Goldwire PG
31 Zendon Hamilton C
5 Eddie House SG
13 Mike James PG 6-2

27 Zaza Pachulia C
22 Michael Redd SG
15 Daniel Santiago C
8 Joe Smith PF
20 Erick Strickland SG
44 Keith Van Horn SF
25 Mo Williams

Anthony Goldwire

The only reason I liked him was because he used to rock this part on the side of hair that I thought was awesome as a kid. I'll try to see if I can find it.

edit: This was the best pic I could find of it, if you look closely you will see a small, faint part on the side right where the "fade" is. He was only guy in NBA that had the part right there.

I'm a big Zaza guy. I'm just happy his home will be about 90 minutes from my door now. Jersey has just been pre-ordered..

No no no. That is like saying watching Madelyn Sheaffer is like watching Taylor Swift.

The curse of the small/mid market NBA team. Don't see it changing anytime soon. I think the last time the Bucks were a serious team was the early 2000s when they were led by Ray Allen, Glen Robinson, and Sam Cassell. I'm probably missing a key player or two. I think they came within a game or two of the Finals one year.

You got it Vegan, they basically missed going to the finals by a missed 12 ft baseline jumper by Robinson.
