I agree with the soft as hell and no defenders part but the team does have some raw talent,raw talent in the sense its a bunch of pieces that dont form a team.But there is some talent on offense on this team.

Keep in mind im talking 40 wins and nothing more than that in a very weak conference if this team played great and lived up their maximum paper potential.

This team would never reach its paper potential though with the terrible mix of guys that dont mesh to from a team in any way.



When i look at the Bucks, let's pretend they are a car. Even if we should believe that a PG is the engine that drives a nice car and Mo is a faulty engine, the rest of the car is still a hunk of junk.

Put a nicer engine in it with a better PG, you still have to deal with brakes that don't stop the car, the muffler is dragging on the ground, the windshield is cracked, the shocks are shot, the transmission constantly slips, the tires are bald, and the car leaks gas all over the place.

What the car really needs isn't a new engine, it's needs to be junked and a different car bought.

Get rid of both Mo/Redd and pray we can dump an ugly contract or two in the deals among Gadz/Simmons/Bell. Use Villianueva as bait in any trade offers.

Start mostly from scratch if possible with different players and stop thinking just a new coach and/or maybe one new starter can change the culture of mushy softness, it won't work.

I just don't understand this.


You haven't for years. You wanted Bell to start over Mo at PG.

I think that Mo is gone for several reasons.

1. He and Redd cannot coexist

We can't trade Redd?

2. His salary and worth are more inline with each other, permitting a trade


So you would rather keep Redd's MAX deal?
3. His defense is terrible and defending the point of attack is important

"point of the attack" is the new buzz word on this board. meh. Our defense is actually worse w/o Mo. The problem is that as I outlined in a thread a created a while back it is hard to defend pick n roles and is a team effort.
4. He isn't a great facilitator

He's not great, but last year he ran a very good offense.
5. Bogut apparently dislikes him

Unproven.

6. He's selfish

He just doesn't trust his teammates, he can play unselfish. If u watched the first month of the year he can do it.

IMO getting a PG who can work well with Bogut should be a priority. If thats Sessions, then so be it, but it isn't Mo Williams.


According to DB's thread it looks like Mo works pretty well with him. What happened to the 4 and out offense? Bogut needs shooters around him when he starts commanding double teams.

thank you, i could not remember that phrase and it was driving me nuts


i do agree that defending the point of attack is extremely important, hence the reason we just gave up 151 to a team that won't make the playoffs
