So would you be super excited about a RJ/First for Raef?

Sure. We could at least make SOME sort of roster modifications before 2011.

As of now, we're stuck with what we have minus CV and Ersan plus NBDL players until then.

Everyone get your Jordans on and hit the gym because in 1 hour the Bucks will be holding tryouts for about 3 slots on next year's bench.

How do buyouts in the NBA work? If someone gets bought out, do they still count against the cap, and thus incur a luxury tax?

Cap counts the same, actual amount you pay them is all that changes. But for lux tax purposes, no change.

We should just drop of the NBA and join the NBDL. We would have a better chance.

Why should he care? He can still sleep easily knowing that he has an Olympic gold medalist on his roster.

Redd is going to come back next season and lead the Bucks back to the Glory Days. Max Green has been telling us that all season.

In Max Green we trust.

Must admit, I'm really blue and pessimistic about now! I wish I could live in the happy world of inconsistency where I tell myself that the Bucks Management understands our plight and has made plans to deal with it in a wonderful way and I actually, truly believe it but I can't and won't! :evil:

This fricken team deserves no one as a fan base. Complete BS - mediocrity reins in MKE!

This team has some absolutely DIE HARD fans too, all stumbling all over each other to watch mediocre season after mediocre season without any direction or clear plan.

Is the Fat Lady singing yet or will we see a last minute deal?

Probably time to stick a fork in any trade talks, but I can hold my breath for another 20-minutes :lol:
