Just an old vet. Not an old washed up vet since he was never that good. Bluhhhh.

Let's not go overboard. He's never showed even remotely the same volume. He should be a net upgrade overall, but that would be a massive jump in shooting.

Hate to break it to you but pretty much everyone available to sign at our price point is either bad, old, or both.

Who we start needs to chase down boards/loose balls. We lost the ability w/ Tucker & Jrue leaving. Celts had it w/ Jrue & White. Was a big factor in titles. Don't think this describes Wright. Bev was solid at it, but still not enough. Bruce Brown might be.

Im seeing 41% but thats still just fine. Also 44% on wide opens.

I think our new theory should be: if a player cannot create offense, they absolutely have to defend and hit wide open 3s. he fits that mold. Now lets get a few more.

Went 5/5 in the 4th of game 2 tbf, but yeah, not expecting more than 3-5 shots a game

He's a very good POA defender that can play next to Dame. I see him as a solid upgrade over PatBev, playing 25 mpg during the regular season and hopefully not 35 like Pat during the playoffs but still a guy they can count on at that time.

About as good of a vet min signing both for quality and fit that the Bucks could expect. Great signing.

That doesn't make it any better. :) Thats why we have a crappy bench since we are so top heavy

Some prefer the eponymous album, but "Either/Or" is the choice selection from the Elliott Smith discography.

No wrong choices, though.

Wright being such a solid defender with size who can also play PG seems to make him a very good compliment to Dame.

I was hoping the Bucks would get him last year after the buyout. This is a vet minimum signing that I was expecting. Can I start the rumor that Horst promised him the starting spot now?

Let's not let details get in the way of some good spin :)

This is the first bit of news for the Bucks in a long time that I've felt good about.

Nothing to get upset or excited over, solid vet signing. Hopefully this isn't our big offseason move lol
