Damn numbers! Sad to see him go. He should get playing time more often. Casualty of trade rules, he was the obvious one to throw in.

This was Kemba's guy. Hope Kemba's not pissed.

I think Kemba will be happy to better position us for the playoffs. Plus Adrien had nothing when we picked him up and gave him a contract and now he's shown he has some value. Should be thanking us.

I really enjoyed Adrien here. He was a bruiser. Under-sized big man but you would never know it. Gotta respect that. I thought he played very well in the beginning of the season and should have gotten more minutes the past couple of months. Hope he gets in the rotation for the Bucks.

Much respect to Jeff 'Rocky' Adrien. He was a good acquisition for Charlotte during his time there

Awww, not Adrien. I'm more sad about losing him than Sessions.

Goodbye, sweet prince. I suspect he'll be back in camp as a Charlotte Hornet in the offseason

Rocky > Zeller. I really wish Cliff would have given him more minutes.

I hope for exactly the same, coolio. Sad to see him go.

Me too. I proposed a Sessions/Ridnour+something swap a while ago and though that was fair value. I was hoping to keep Rocky.

Adrien is gonna fly off to Milwaukee....might be good for him actually he should play a decent amount of minutes so he might get some valuable experience

Thanks to Rocky for everything, I hope he's back sometime in the near future.

i don't know how many minutes he'll get. Ilyasova and Henson will likely get most of his minutes.

he will probably get around 20mpg considering all but 1 of the Bucks players averaged less than 20 (Knight is the only one averaging 30+)

I will not miss Adrien one iota. One worthless Husky down, one more to go.

I have to say that I'm sad to see him leave because I like the way he was acting, always the first to jump in the air while warming the bench.

However, I'm happy for him because he'll have other opportunities in Milwaukee and maybe start a real nba carrier

Good luck JA4 !

One of my unheralded favorites at the end of the Bobcats' bench, Jeff 'Rocky' Adrien, is quickly making friends & fans in Milwaukee already...

Just 3:13 into his first shift as a Buck, Adrien hooked up with rookie Giannis Antetokounmpo for an alley-oop. And so begins a beautiful friendship.

Yeah, that was great debut for Adrian as Buck. I hope for more good games like this for Adrien, I believe he's very good player and I wish him the best.
