Bucks= NBA's Nice Guy Raiders 

Post#1 » by CBUCK06 » Thu Mar 6, 2008 4:45 am

I like Herb Kohl but are we turning into an NBA's version of the NFL's nice guys LA Raiders?

It, at least appears, that we have an owner that is in the mix a lot.

A collection of talent that isn't working (CV is our Robert Gallery)

Too many shooters in our backcourt (Redd, Mo = Moss [though not that talented] and Jerry Porter of 2 years ago).

Bell is unhappy (Sapp at the end of this year)

Not a perfect comparison but we have issues and no Farve. Tough, tough times ahead.

That means we will sign a Javon Walker type in the off season to a huge contract. :uhoh:

Everyone is clamoring for our new QB Ramon Sessions to play while the Raiders fans were clamoring for JaMarcus Russell.

The good thing about basketball is that one great draft pick and you're set for a decade.

No, we're ahead of the curve on that.
Bobby Simmons.

I disagree on most levels. Herb Kohl is involved, but not a tyrant. Neither redd nor mo is like either of the wr's, jerry and randy were under utilized and put no effort into most of the things they do. ROBERT GALLERY WAS A BUST!!! CV has an opportunity to become a special player, and he was significantly less hyped than gallery. I'll agree that we have a coach who doesn't know what he's doing and a franchise with no real direction as far as an identity. oh and even though sapp was angry, his production was quite impressive EVERY GAME (unlike bell)

No offense


But your comparison makes no sense at all

The Bucks are definitely the Cincy Reds of basketball. Both have pretty strong histories but have been terrible the last 20 years or so. Always have a strong offense, see Adam Dunn, Sean Casey, Griffey etc.
The Reds even took one of their better players, Danny Graves, and moved him from the bullpen to starting rotation (see Mo Williams)

The Reds haven't had Sean Casey for like a year and a half now. :lol:
