The Ryan Braun-less Brewer season after he gets suspended? I'll pass.

I've gone from being apoplectic to laughing hysterically and now I'm just sinking into my seat.

I really haven't seen much of Harris or Lamb but I'm not understanding why you guys are disappointed here. JJ is a damn good player.

Ford reporting that Atlanta pulled out at 2:59 Eastern. One minute away from landing an actual difference maker in Josh Smith.

Of course.

I'm done paying for anything associated with this franchise. I will not be going to a Bucks game until Hammond is fired.

It comes back to the "vision" thing. Sure, for the next 29 games, JJ Redick will help us. I like having him better than Beno. And Tobias and Lamb weren't playing.

But overall we still have zero vision or plan. This trade makes sense if you are sending out Monta and getting back Josh Smith. But we didn't.

And we are now locked into paying Jennings all sorts of money this summer as our starting PG.

Horrible.

So Monta is still a Buck? For sure?

I literally bought tickets for Sat at 1:58 because I was so excited to Smith, Redick and the guys from Dallas and be able to smash my Ellis bobblehead. I hate my life.

For me its more about missing out on Josh Smith and not moving Monta Ellis then it is hating JJ Redick.

Lesson learned: Never buy Bucks tickets under any circumstances.

But you can still smash the Ellis bobblehead. Or throw it at him.

I agree, but worst run team in the league? We traded 3 guys who have no impact on our team for a guy that might. I don't like the trade either (without a Monta for Smith trade), but it doesn't make us the worst-run team in the league. In the long run, this trade is irrelevant unless Harris blows up.

To answer the q, I think at this point they're easily the worst run team in the NBA. They just suck at everything.

Redick is a good player but jesus christ giving up this kind of haul for him when he's a fa in 30 games is completely idiotic. Not to mention keeping the swag backcourt intact....
