If Bone was still here, he would trade Thon at the deadline. Say what you will, he did dump his mistakes very soon after making them. No doubt by now he would've recognized the dumpster fire that is Thon and trade him while he still has any value.

We're going to turn this team around 360 degrees.

Oh **** off.

Dude is a 7 footer with a sweet jumpshot and an endless motor, and every man and his dog swears he does the right thing every single day since he landed in MKE. There's literally articles written about it by national journalists. It was perfectly reasonable to assume his performance would improve from his series V Toronto, and no, it was not reasonable to assume it would fall off a cliff.

I have no idea what happened to the guy, **** happens to people when they get a tonne of money in their hands for the first time. I wouldn't be surprised if there's something going seriously wrong with his lifestyle at the moment.
