Outside of Milwaukee, or any other team you are a fan of who would you be happy...or at least content with getting the #1 pick?




I am a fan of both Chicago and Milwaukee, so excluding them I would LOVE to see Portland end up with the #1 pick.

Could you imagine

Rose
Roy
Jones (whomever)
Aldridge
Oden


Outside of that, anyone other than the Knicks.

Portland. That would be absolutely sick.

Rose/Roy/Outlaw or Webster/Aldridge/Oden

EDIT: I see you already broke down the roster. Sorry, I promise I do know how to read :)

Knicks. Most of family lives in NY, they've had it as rough as us. Also I love New York with a passion. I also think that if the Knicks start winning again we won't constantly hear this talk about how the NBA is struggling. Outside of football everytime a New York team isn't winning, the press goes overboard about how ratings are down and how nobody wants to see certain teams(ex. Tigers vs Cards, NBA Finals when L.A. isn't in it). If New York cares about the NBA, we never hear about ratings and popularity again.

Why do you guys want Portland?

We need parity and they've already had their luck with Roy and Oden....

I don't want Chicago either....they can still live off their 90's success for another decade.....

Nor Miami....those are fake NBA fans....and Riley's won enough.....

Nor Memphis, because that team needs to relocate to a city that might try to buy the Bucks......ditto for the Wolves. Minnesota is going to experience the big NBA crash without Garnett around to keep them afloat....that is a Vikings/Twins/Hockey/UM town.

I think the #1 needs to go to Milwaukee......I don't want it going anywhere else.....

Totally agree. I don't even want to think of it going anywhere else. It might jinx it.

+1

Hopefully number one goes to Min and 2 to Memphis. Min drafts Rose and has a core of Rose and Jefferson. Memphis has a core of Conley/Gay/Beasly. Hopefully our front office would notice that and blow this motha **** up.

I really don't want Miami to get it. D-Whistle doesn't need any more help. Their tanking was even worse then ours last year. They made us overpay our players as well. I hope they get number 6.

That's my pov too. Minnesota or Memphis. Seattle just got Durant and Green. Portland has Oden and Roy and Aldridge. Miami has Wade and Marion. Clips have Kaman and Brand. NY could potentially do with the 1 or 2, but they're such a mess that the player would likely be wasted.

Minnesota has Jefferson and not much. Memphis hasn't got anything top tier.

I'll also say that the Bucks and Knicks are the teams that need the most help. Only one of them will actually get help though, and it won't be us.

Memphis, because they need the #1 pick to land Rose and to have a little bit of fan interest: in Memphis no one cares about the Grizzlies, they care only about the Tigers, and that is so bad for them...They can't even move in another city (again) because they have to be in memphis 'til 2015. They need fresh air.

Profound this is the most inappropriate time for you to ask this....

I COULD GIVE A FLYING FLIP ABOUT ANY OTHER TEAM...getting the #1 pick.

WE (Bucks)NEED IT!!!

I might play this game with you any other year but this one...but I cannot fathom any team needing it more then we do!

We need the next Isiah Thomas in Gordon, Rose, Mayo, or....but we need that pick.

We screwed up and set this franchise back 15 years with the TJ Ford deal and a true point guard...starting back when I begged the Bucks' not to trade Rafer Alston.

Now he might be one of the most improved unsung players in the NBA the last 3-4 years bar none in the entire league if you ask me.

Derrick Rose or Eric Gordon if not OJ Mayo and or Michael Beasley could start a dynasty like Paul and Deron in New Orleans and Utah and my boy BRoy, LaMarcus and Oden in Portland.

We need the pick. This is not the year to allow our collective minds and or kharma or fateful wishful positive thinking if that is what you believe alter that from happening...

We need a top 3 pick and move anyone else to get that CENTERPIECE for this franchise...who can win!

There is not one guy we have now on this roster who epitimizes that at all... :noway:

Dude, what a sh**ty thing to say. Why would you wish for other NBA teams to get the axe? You realize those teams have fans that are just as passionate about their teams as you are about your Bucks right?

How would you feel if someone said that about the Bucks?
