Guess I'm not crazy. Nice work, Oshkosh.

This is what they get for naming the team "The Wisconsin Herd."

This isn't some Earth shattering opinion, but man they really dropped the ball on the team branding. They tried to get cute and it failed. I would have absolutely bought some apparel and worn it around the city and to games had they chosen literally anything else. Almost no way I buy anything Herd related though. Too similar to the Bucks except 100x less appealing.

They should have made Halloween Tuesday's flop against the Thunder off-limits to the non-masochists amongst their fandom.

Herd dropped their scrimmage to the Bulls 120-99. Bulls live tweeted the game. Crickets from the Herd.

Does anyone know if the Herd are going to employ a brodcast crew to call the games? That’s been standard practice for every D-league team for years but with the way things are going it wouldn’t shock me if the Herd/Bucks skimped on providing live broadcasts.

I find myself becoming irrationally interested in Bolomboy. Looking at stats and highlights, he seems to fit the mold of the kind of player we need. First, he's a phenomenal rebounder, both offensively and defensively. Second, he looks like a good roll man, someone who's a lot more comfortable dunking it in traffic than our current crop of bigs. Third, he's got a developing 3-pointer, shooting 46% on two attempts per game last year.

Obviously there's a reason or reasons he's only in the G-League right now, but I hope he gets an opportunity to play in the big leagues this year.

I feel like this was also proclaimed in 500 BC.

Is there a certain set up to the G league schedule on who you play and how many times?

Was trying to figure out if we play Reno here and it didn't appear so, and looked to see if Reno played in Chicago as well and they don't play them even once. Is there a system to this madness!?!

This team has a very Flint Tropics kinda feel to it.

Bolomboy 19/10. Betting this guy ends up in the rotation by the end of the season. Would be refreshing seeing a guy really hunt rebounds.

He's available for 45 days on his two way deal. I assume we could potentially cut Liggins and sign him to a main roster deal at some point or pending some trades down the line. I also assume waiving Vaughn may be an option down the road.

I am far from a cap expert (so i can be ruled out as Horst) though so i don't know the implications of all this with the cap.

I'd put him on our active roster right now. F it. We need some beef.

Two games are closed to the public. I've not heard of that before.
