Can't forget about former Buck Jamaal Magloire



He is the poster boy for bad all-star selections.


Leading scorer for the East in that game.

Oh yes, the bring Middleton back off an injury to beat the Sixers which costs the Bucks the opportunity to draft Jamal Murray game. I remember it well.

What a find from Jokic there. Fun finish.

Game of the year?

Jokic-Murray-Harris is a pretty nasty trio.

Please explain why a team shouldn't have two all stars, and why a player making a previous all star game effects anything?

I know we hate on Westbrook and that's all good, I don't really like him either, but he's totally right re: fan confrontation on the court. The players have to be protected. Yes, we have metal detectors now, but you gotta prevent crazy **** like this from happening.



Fans get way, way too into it and you never know what some drunk, adrenaline-filled dumb ass is going to do.

I wonder if Brogdon's injury messed up any trades we had going?

Aaron Gordon available. I'll be honest. I had zero faith this dude would shoot well enough to be an upper level player in this league. He's come a long way and honestly is one of my favorite guys to watch. A lot of teams should be after him now. He's vastly improving and I doubt he's done.

When ORLANDO doesn't want to pay you its time to re-examine.

Sure enough, shoot well?

Orlando starts off 9-4 and Gordon hits 25/42 3s (59.5%!) - Falls in love with the 3

Since then Orlando is 6-31 and Gordon has shot 54/186 (29.0%) from 3 on INCREASED attempts

Someone is going to pay him WAY TOO MUCH and get a tweener that can't shoot.

Yup yup. I chronicled this heavily back when Orlando was a surprise hot team and Gordon and Fournier were shooting 60%. It was never going to last. Fournier has stayed a little hotter, but both have cooled off significantly and, obviously, Orlando sucks now.

Good for Greg, I am happy for him. Hope if we don't win a title, which I am not expecting, he can land one.

Stevens will probably turn Monroe into the second coming of Shaq.

They've made every wrong decision on who to pay and who not to pay. I can feel that 4/40 for Payton in the chamber. Meanwhile, in Indiana:

Boston is probably going to the finals.

Return to Milwaukee Bucks
