Kidd is responsible for Brogdon's development? it was clear from day 1 that Brogdon was trustworthy and could score the ball.

Kidd isn't solely responsible for anybody's development. As in he can't make something out of nothing. But if a player has talent, Kidd has proven he will be able to bring it out of them. Brogdon, Giannis, etc. all deserve credit for their role in becoming the players they are today.


fair, although Giannis would've gotten to where he is on any team. Do our last 3 first round picks have talent?


I definately think Vaughn has talent and I definately think Wilson doesn't. About Thon, I'm not sure but I definately think he's not going to figure it out.

Whatever happened to Kidd's wife? The first year like I felt she was pro-MKE/Wisconsin and very visible. Since then, you don't hear anything. Or at least I haven't.

So many insensitive jokes I'm biting my tongue on here regarding Jason and his relationships with wives.

Rashad Vaughn obviously did something to her that drove her away. I suspect while her and Jason were in bed after one of his 20 pt games, she told Jason he should grow out his hair to look more like Vaughn. The timelines all add up.

We could probably start a thread about the ownership group at this point. It should start with a comprehensive look at the impact on the team since they took over - especially with regard to the most important personnel - and serve as a repository for documenting the progression.

Bucks miss the playoffs. Bucks extend Kidd. Just you wait for it. Cause being a Bucks fan is a sadomasochistic lifestyle choice.

Don't worry. So many sellouts this year according to Alex Lasry.... Everything is fine as long as $$$ is rolling in.

Yep, no amount of complaining on RealGM or on Twitter or on podcasts or on local radio is going to change things. The ONLY way for the fans to cause change is to stop spending money on this team via tickets, concessions, merchandising, etc.

That doesn't mean we should stop complaining, though. :)

Thon Delly Snell line ups need to stop being a thing.

They are selling more tickets. Don't think anyone argues that. The issue is that despite Giannis there still are a lot of nights where the BC is dead and many empty seats in the upper level. The casual fan still isn't in to this they way most markets would be if they had a top 3 player on the roster.

But yeah, you guys keep tagging him in my tweets so when he jumped in tonight I couldn't resist this one.

Just want to reaffirm the idea others have expressed that Giannis is good enough right now to lead us to a championship, so we better build a worthy team around him in the next 3+ years, the sooner the better, but recognizing that it's not going to happen this year. We urgently have got to get our **** straight for this window.

So do you say trade Thon/Middleton for Tristan Thompson and the Nets pick and reload with some youth and a new coaching staff this summer?

The only results our Pompous NYC owners care about are the ones that impact their bottom line! clearly they don’t mind mediocrity so long as they are getting sales

Jeff Van Gundy would be perfect for this team. He's a world class basketball mind & plenty "splashy", or whatever.

1/13/2017 One year back, Bucks beat Heat to go 20-18 while Heat fall to 11-30.

Fast forward to today, Bucks have a similar record 22-19 (Heat somehow has 24-17). In the meantime Giannis has gone from star to superstar, Brogdon and Thon are not rookies anymore, we got Bledsoe, we have "continuity".

This team is going sideways, it will never amount to anything while Kidd is in charge. We cannot even evaluate our roster in this stupid system we are playing.

We got Bledsoe in November. Initially he did not know our system and he played mainly on instincts and a lot of pnr. He had 5apg in November, he started getting more comfortable in our system, his apg fell to 4.1 in December. Now he is fully integrated, he has 3.3apg in January taking turns in iso ball between him/Giannis/Middleton

Return to Milwaukee Bucks
