yeah they sold their last gold egg for three trash firsts. Nothing they are doing is smart, they are still gonna suck


They were gonna suck either way.


right, so why continue to mortgage your future for absolutely no chance at a title? if they weren't going to keep Durant, it was a MASSIVE mistake to trade that unprotected 31 1st. they are going to be the Bulls starting right now with no chance to tank and rebuild until 2032 at the earliest.

I guess I will need to see the future ones, but the ones in upper 50s are kind of useless.

No real preferable horse for me since the guys I do like won’t make it to the pick, but sure put me down for RJ Luis or the Nevada kid.

If it’s Goldin, I will weep a bit though. “Michigan Horst”

Another Boston swindle. Seems high compared to other trades thus far in this area of the draft

Who has the best feel good story of the guys left we can draft? Who comes from humble beginnings and “got it out the mud” like the kids say? I can always cheer for that guy..

Weren’t you the dude who flat out said you don’t see the point in rooting for a team that doesn’t have hope I.e. any young talent? Hell, I’ve led the charge about how worthless 2nd round picks are, but that’s exactly why they should be something we’re investing in cuz, you know….our roster **** sucks when it comes to any young talent and they’re one of the few avenues to acquire talent that’s actually available to us right now.

Yea, I never just said "any young talent". 2nd round picks give me zero hope. They shouldn't give anyone hope. Hell, anything from about 20 and on is a hope and a prayer.

Charlotte with a nice draft, taking two plug and play guys in Kneuppel and Kalkenbrenner. Both guys with good skills, high BBIQs and room for growth.

I love the second round and posters being upset about players taken before the Bucks pick, and virtually all of them will be busts anyway.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

It's my favorite time of the year. Love the second day draft to allow more time for FOMO to sink in after checking 1-2 highlight videos of some serb whose name I can't pronounce

I love making ahistorical statements like virtually all players in the 30's are busts & the fact the Bucks shouldn't be expected to improve their chances by trading up from their only pick in the draft which is a mid 40's 2nd where it actually falls off.

Return to Milwaukee Bucks
