Hopefully we can clear an extra roster spot to bring in Tines

Anyone got a reason why this couldn't have been done in the Redick deal ?

Deal off because we won't give up Slava.

We thought we were going to do something better then.

Butler:

Delfino:

Don't hate it, don't love it. I hope he's a good locker room presence and helps mentor the young guys, but doesn't contribute to any wins.

There's the deal

Honestly, if this is the Bucks move to complete the roster, and they're not giving up Henson, a 1st, Yanni or Sanders...this is about the ideal move. They get a "name" they can sell to the idiot pubic and our idiot owner, he's only got one year left, and he isn't going to make a dent on the win-situation.

Hey Herb instead of burning that $8 mil on Butler, how about you put that towards a new arena? If we do that every time you want to hand out a stupid contract or bring in a player we don't need we will have that arena in no time.

As an outsider looking in, the team still looks like an 11th or 12th seed to me. Rest assured, you don't have to worry too much about picking 15th again. :wink:

Philly, Boston, and Orlando are the only teams sure to best worse.

Amusing typo.

Would not be surprised at all if Kendall Marshall is going to Milwaukee too. Our GM has been reported to be trying to attach him to any deal possible. He would be a great fit here too IMO

Well this is a typical Bucks move, hopefully Caron will be a good mentor for the young guys on this team. After Maggette and SJax, I'm hoping Hammond has learned his lesson, it sounds like Butler is a good locker room guy. Now Giannis will probably only get minutes during garbage time, which is what I don't like about this move.

So we'll give up a draft pick for taking on a $8million vet nobody wants.

Of course you're the one to spot it.
