Now, who is
OVER-valuing their players?
As for your selling-price... KEEP HIM!!! Redd can score, but that's it...and he's getting old. I don't want him anyways!

That's funny.... Milwaukee got Michael Redd
WAY after the 19th pick (second round)... and it isn't like, he is the exception to the rule... Arenas, Parker, Gibson & many others have come out of the 2nd round over the last 10 years and have been proficient scorers. So, yes... we CAN
easily find a player with the 19th pick, who can score 20 a game... and He'll probably play better defense than Redd!

No offense but the Cavs are not a good option as a team the Bucks want to trade with right now. Maybe other teams want expirings, but not the Bucks.
Don't be so sure of that. Hammond is known to say one thing, and do another. Also, he can only do what the owner will let him, and your Senator/Owner doesn't like to spend money! However, you are right about one thing: The chances of the Cavaliers and Bucks making a trade are HIGHLY unlikely.

Look how effective Redd was on Team USA when guys drove and dished to him for wide open jumpers. If the Cavs had Redd this playoffs they would have been in the Eastern Conference Finals so don't give Milwaukee your scraps and think it's honest business.
You are comparing Redd's play on an all-star team vs another country's team... Apples and Oranges!!!
First of all, Redd played less than 10 minutes a game. Second, he played against the 2nd team, while he played with all-stars on his squad. As for Redd and LeBron being "unstoppable" , that is nonsense. A.I. and Melo were said to be "unstoppable", yet they didn't make it past the first round.
As for our "scraps", I'd rather we trade them for a younger player, that plays better defense.
You say you are "just an NBA fan", but you are clearly a Bucks supporter, as your over-valuation of Redd and the Buck's players shows.
You wanted to know why the Bucks would send Redd and CV (who was a bench player his entire career until mid-way through last season due to injuries to other players) to a division opponent; Well, I ask you this: Why would the Cavaliers want to give a bunch of expiring contracts to a division opponent, who would then be able to re-make their entire roster in a single year... ala the Celtics??????
No thank you, you keep him!
