Mother of man something needs to happen soon. Lin to PHI or us. Bledsoe signing somewhere, preferably with us. Lebron doing something. This is torture. BP? Andrewoc? Wery?

Dude, dude was popular at the very least in the 90s. So at least keep up with the times on what the popular slang words for an individual are, dude.

Is that a role he would be interested in though? Especially when he could go to LA and start. Im pretty sure they've expressed interest.

My guess is he just wants to be paid whatever the role. He's been playing for pennies.

I just seen a Tweet from Gery Woelfel saying bucks might be going for Hibbert. Always with the dumbest rumors from him. I used to like Hibbert a lot but I am not so sure anymore, would just prefer Lin for a year. I also would haven taken Jarret Jack and that first round from the Cavs.

Eric Bledsoe's assist percentage last year was 22.6, lower than any year of Sessions. Not saying Sessions is a better player, but he is a better passer. I think Sessions is a good player and if the bucks didn't already have a veteran presence on their team, he'd be a good re-sign. But I think it's not the right time for the Bucks. Payton would have been ideal.


Dude, give up. Learn how to look at advanced stats.


First of all, we're not in the 60s anymore, so come up with something better than "dude".

Second of all, every time someone comes up with an opinion you use the words "advanced stats" as if that automatically makes your argument. I was responding to a post that listed Sessions declining assist percentage and I gave Bledsoe's assist percentage. Simple as that. Now my guess is that if my post was one that said how great Bledsoe was, you wouldn't have given your"dude" response. So put your statistical arrogance on hold and as they'd say in the 60s, "chill out".


Now see, I always thought of dude as an 80s term.

In that article he posted that we were the ones who offered Sanders to Brooklyn and they declined. Wasn't it already established that Kidd wanted that done and we declined? Gery gonna (Please Use More Appropriate Word) I guess.

actually if it's true kidd wanted the deal and king didn't it would make some sense that the buck initiated the talks. Otherwise it would have just been an internal discussion for the Nets but they would have never talked to the bucks about it since king wasn't intersted.

I can't see this happening but I'm starting to get scared that's there's a dragic to indi Hibbert to bucks and probably sanders to Phoenix type deal being discussed. Obviously other pieces would be involved. Indi is known to want Goran but suns aren't interested in any of the pacers so they need to find a 3rd team.

As a duel bucks and suns fan I really hope I'm wrong.

Wade to Milwaukee is a dream come true. He does nothing to stop the tank and u can guarantee an All Star appearance, national spotlight and a fan boost. Plus Wade can be used as Hammonds personal savings account for all I care. Pay Wade some front loaded monster deal so we can't spend the money anywhere else to make the team better and we are looking at cap room galore in a few years when we might actually be ready to make a run at something special. It's a win win for Milwaukee and Wade...

Wade realistically goes to Chicago tho because after his ego is done being dragged through the mud then I'm sure he will want to beat Lebron and Bosh next year. Lebron and Bosh just put out on front street "we can't win with D Wade anymore" and he sacrificed 40mil just to be slapped in the mouth. Chicago is a realistic chance for him to get revenge so it makes the most sense but man would that be a gorgeous sight to see a Wade #3 Bucks jersey. If nothing else then simply for the fame and notoriety is well worth it.

Gery is always throwing out crazy win now moves. He had us trading for Pau **** Gasol at the deadline last year for some reason. He is always making up moves like this and almost all of them would make little to no sense for us.

As for whether we offered that for Lopez rather than the Nets offering it to us, I wouldn't put it past Hammond / Kohl.

I just can't get behind the Bucks going after Hibbert. I just can't watch that ridiculously uncoordinated 7 footer stumble all over the court. The fact that he has to be coddled like a child or he crumbles isn't encouraging either. I say absolutely no way.

But hey, its Gery so its probably made up in an effort to trash on Sanders some more.

I'll barf everywhere if we get Wade or Hibbert. Both make 0 sense.

I'd be delighted to have Ish Smith back if the Suns waive him before his contract is guaranteed next week.

Just to clarify, are we acting like Sanders/Ilysova for Lopez/Teletovic would have been a terrible deal for us, when many here were freaking out last season that the former two players would end up blowing up the tank?

Lopez wouldn't have blown up the tank. He was injured for the season. If he came back from it he'd end up being the best player in the deal by far when it was all said and done. He had the 6th best Roland Rating in the NBA in '12-'13. He was sandwiched between Duncan, Paul, Parker, and Anthony. It wasn't hollow stats. The Nets were WAY better with him on the court (+5.9 in comparison to -3.7).

Plus, indirectly by doing the deal, we'd have ensured winding up in the top 4 of the so-called 4 player draft. That wouldn't have happened if Larry stayed on the court and/or Ersan pulled his head out of his ass in the last 2-3 months.

In hindsight, it's a pretty good thing for us that trade didn't wind up going down. But given the info we had at the time, it would have been a more than fine trade.

The (proposed) deals have been much more palatable since Morway came on board, and Hammond has been really solid in the draft this year included, so I don't think there is cause to be pessimistic about our GM situation right now.

We made all our stupid decisions last season (Mayo, offering a big contract to Tony Allen, Zaza, Delfino, etc) after Morway came on. Maybe he is better than Hammond, but if he had some measurable impact on how good our moves were last year, it sure didn't translate into a lot.
