Mo/Sessions bandwagon. 

Post#1 » by Nowak008 » Tue Apr 15, 2008 8:45 am

I think that this combo could be very good next year. Mo could play roughly 25-30 min at the point and then his remaining mins at the 2. Sessions could get the remaining mins at the point. We haven't had a decent back up PG on this team for 2 years now. Hopefully with Sessions emergence we can finally have some quality depth at PG.

What do you guys think?

I think that the Mo/Sessions bandwagon is going to meet the same fate as the Ron Paul for President bandwagon.

Depends if we have Redd or not. If he's still here I want the Redd/Mo combo on the court as little as possible. If Mo stays I want him to be the 6th man.

I can't see Mo backing up Sessions without causing some major locker room drama. Nor do I see Redd getting traded this offseason, but even if he was would a Sessions/Mo backcourt work? I doubt it given how neither could guard the majority of the small guards in the NBA.

I think the Mo bandwagon and Sessions bandwagon are on a collision course.

Where did I say Mo was not starting?

I did. He should be 6th man. And if he whines or pouts our new coach will have the balls to tell him, "Listen bitch. If Manu f'n Ginobli doesn't mind being a 6th man, neither should you."

Nope.

Can't see Mo Williams coming off the bench. Not after his little antics this season. Rather have a Sessions/Bell combination than a Sessions/Mo.

Mo and hopefully Redd move on to other teams next season.

Can someone define Mo's "antics" this year.

1. He was the only guy called out for lousy defense by a coach who has a history of alienating players. He got pissed about it. And as we have seen the last 10 games or so, he was right to be pissed about it. Watching the Bucks without Mo, you get the sense he is the best defender on the team.

2. Amid a terrible losing spell, he said that the current offense that the Bucks were running wasn't working (it wasn't), and he said that the one run last year worked much better (it did). When Bogut attempted to say that the offense should continue to run through him, despite how badly it had failed, Mo implied that this was because he had a contract looming (he does) and he wanted maximize his earning potential. Bogut then sat down and shut up.


Those are Mo's antics this year.

No thanks.

I think that Mo has proven himself to be a 6th man. Perhaps a starter in the perfect situation, but not here. Not sure we can afford to keep him in a 6th man role, but I would consider it.

I don't want to have a 6' SG either.

Sessions / Redd is far more appealing.

Mo Williams will never be the best defender on any professional basketball team.

I'd love Mo as a sixth man (not with Sessions starting). But I don't see it happening.

:rofl:

trade mo williams.


I'm seeing a trend with you here....

If Mo = Sessions why pay Mo all that money when Session would be a greater value. Mo has had his chance to lead this team and has done nothing.

Won't happen.

Milwaukee will be treated to another year of Redd/Mo chucking.

When I watch the team playing without Mo as their on-court "leader," I cringe at the idea of him playing 25-30 minutes as our PG next year. As much as I like his his spirit (esp. if his ego cools down with a little time) and his offense, I think he stifles teamwork big time. Like a straightjacket. Start him and the Bucks as a team stay disjoined and ineffective.

However, it's nice to see that Mo Love isn't dead, and given that it's Spring it's appropriate to see it springing up in new threads. Keep the faith.
AFAIK, IDKM
