Why would Den do that?

Uncertainty about Nene, not wanting to re-sign JR.

err its testicular cancer, it's not like a recovery is unprecedented (Lance Armstrong). I'd be more concerned if it was an achilles like Elton Brand. They give up big man depth in a centre heavy West for for 1 big guy and a guy who will never ever see the court behind Carmelo Anthony. They also lose a guy that they use in rotation with Carmelo Anthony and AI. Which they absoltely need if they want to anywhere in the playoffs. With AI also hitting free agency they need some insurance in case they can't come to an agreement. Pls the bad contracts.

What do the bucks do with another SG (JR Smith) BTW. Granted he's a RFA at the end of the year.

There's some decent talent hitting free agency at the Forward positions and I'd just wait for that. Guys that'd be cheap and I'd like to see James Posey, Kurt Thomas or Jamal Magloire (again, but as a rotation player). Lets face it scorers aren't the issue and defenders are required. good complementary/bench players can defend well, in the case of Posey is an outside threat, Magloire has post game and Kurt Thomas is still a great defender. These are the guys I think are desperately needed not stars but guys who know their role good to elite defenders and contribute all around as well as outside the stat sheet. Right now as I see it there's really 3 guys vying to be top dog in Milwaukee, all of them have a case but one has to go.

Of the big names Elton Brand is the standout to me but comes with ???? about health. Ron Artest is also ????? mentally. Paul Millsap is an RFA.

I'd be trying to get rid of Gadz to Seattle to try and get Luke Ridnour who like Bogut IMO is just down on confidence bt more of a pass first guard but with their situation even worse than the bucks and then there are other salary issues. It seems like a good fit as they are more than likely losing Kurt THomas, and if Gadz has shown anything, ha can run, he can block some shots, he can crash the offensive boards. Great for a team bilding around Kevin Durant

What do you mean why would Denver do that!?

That is a great deal for them! WHY WOULDN'T THEY :dontknow: is what you should be asking! :crazy:

They dont use Hunter, JR Smith to them is a knucklehead, and they are giving up Nene's contract for a guy who fits them better in Gadzuric and
is not injury prone and get a dependable Bobby Simmons!

Why wouldn't they do this!? Two experienced players that Coach George Karl favors to make a run now.

Why wouldn't they!? That is a great deal for both teams and a higher risk for the Bucks.' JR Smith's talent intrigues me but we will be seeing him as villain #1 once he comes down and jacks up a jump shot.

The kid has talent but is somewhat immature. Needed to go to college real bad to learn how to work for something and be instructed and get some structure to his life and game.

Nene when healthy would be simply phenonmenal to have as would a Steven Hunter who can extend and block shots.

I like the deal and you get two contracts off the books but you take on Nene's. You would have to see if he can come back and play first but it would be an excellent deal.

I am not so sure you can sit a guy like JR on the bench though, and there is not leader here to keep him in check. But a talented young man if he gets his head on straight...

The Squirrel is a better fit for them over Nene?

Perhaps if it was a find the nut contest.
