The logical deduction is this means a deal involving Mo Williams could be imminent. The Bucks have been looking to trade him this offseason and adding Lue as the possible backup to Ramon Sessions could pave the way for it to happen.

You can't be serious that Skiles / Hammond would ever consider a PG tandem of Sessions / Lue ...
Sessions isn't ready for that and Lue just stinks at this stage of his career.

Lue is looking pretty slutty in the league now, is this his 7th team? I've lost count....

This is a very solid signing for the Bucks

Depends on how Hammond and Skiles feel about Sessions. He was extremely impressive when he got a chance to start late last season. If they believe he can handle the job with some veteran support they could go that route. A strong argument can be made that the Bucks are going nowhere with Mo as the starting PG so Hammond and Skiles may believe the team can't be any worse off with Sessions and Lue and if Sessions continues to develop there's a chance the team could improve.

Come on a guy that only played ~15 Games in the NBA can't be ready for starting and playing 35-40 Minutes because Lue really is not suited for more then 15 MPG .

Every other team looking at him had a) a clearcut starter playing that many minutes b) several other PG options.

Mo Williams a goner?

I wouldn't expect Lue to play more than 15-20 minutes per game with the Bucks. And I realize going with Sessions is a risk. But the Bucks have been brutal in all three seasons when Mo Williams has been the starting PG. It's not like things could get any worse with Sessions.

Wow nice move by Tyronn Lue, foregoing a giant payday in favor of being the savior for a doomed franchise.

Tyronn Lue is officially the best point guard on the Bucks. Believe dat.

Sucks for the Suns, Lue would of been the best back-up Nash has had (Barbosa isn't a point guard). I think he would of been a nice addition to their bench.

Solid back-up addition for Milwaukee...
