Give Rollins a four year non guaranteed deal with the open roster spot then cut Livingston to sign Bones, assuming they stay under the second apron with those moves and there’s no unlikely bonuses floating out there that would out them over the second apron.

I’m assuming Bones is at least okay on D. Anyone know?

The two things I remember about Bones is he's fast and that he has constant lapses on defense.

He's also dumb asf. He's the dude who wanted out of Denver of all places when he had a large role as the backup PG because he thought he should be playing over Jamal Murray. Delusional idiot with a bad bunch of people in his inner circle that give him stupid advice.

Rollins is just a guy at this point. Get the shoulder surgery this summer and we'll see what happens next season.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

I’d still give him the four year deal with each year being non guaranteed. He’s shown enough flashes that if he comes back after the surgery you might have a super cheap role player. And if he’s still just a guy, you cut him and lose nothing.

I mean, what else are they going to use that last roster spot on?

That's kind of a funny way to announce the signing. No exclamation. No excitement. Just "he's a Milwaukee Buck."


The poorly photoshopped jersey is a nice touch, though.


I so miss the days of the graphics thread. All the jersey swaps for draft possibilities, the banner signatures. Why MFDoom was the go to for many I don’t know. But I do miss my ‘International Towers’ sig featuring Bogut and Yi.

We have one open roster slot right? When’s the deadline for buyout guys to be playoff eligible?

Ajax moves well without the ball but allowing the defense to be completely negligent towards him on offense is really mucking things up. Doc has a peanut shell for a brain so I don’t expect him to figure it out but starting KPJ over Ajax would be a solid move.

Dame/KPJ/Kuz/Bobby/Giannis would be the starting 5 I’d like to see get a heavy look. That’s the best rebounding lineup we can possibly trot out and KPJ is an underrated defender that can create a little for himself on offense without giving up much on either end. It makes the most sense to me but what do I know?

Getting Brook off the floor can only be seen as a positive at this point. Miss me the BS he’s useful because you know, “spacing”. It’s becoming a real joke that anyone thinks a 7’3” dude that can’t run, can’t rebound and camps around the 3pt line is good for the team.
RIP Kobe Forever. GOAT 8-24. Long Live Giannis

Dyson might be the best perimeter defender in the world. I feel like sometimes people forget that the other team also has NBA players that get paid a lot of money to be elite at their profession.

Brook can still be useful but his minutes definitely need to fall down into that 20-25 min range depending on the matchup. If the other teams throws out a couple of really athletic, rebounding type big men we struggle.

No excuse now with more depth and options at 4/5.

Horst found AJ Green and Rollins off the scrap heap not impossible we make a pickup somehow.

Guys that started out on 2 way contracts. Horst needs to fill his 2 way spots with better prospects, and some just became available.

Yeah, I did like how Dame gave it to Brook and then got it back with a brush screen.. that got him in the lane a couple times. We need more 2 man like that; still not enough

Return to Milwaukee Bucks
