If a team comes hard for Tucker, I immagine Reynolds would be the odd man out... Hopefully that doesn't happen and probably wont. As has been discussed, as good as Tucker looks, he's very green and frantic.

3rd PG? He should be behind Bledsoe, Hill, DDV, and Pat.

Adams has probably been their best player - and he's a member of the 40/50/90 club - making 44.1% of his 3's, 59.4% of his 2's, and 90% of his 3's. He was a star at St. Bonnies. The one thing concerning about his stats are his to's - he's more scorer than PG, but when you have Giannis, you don't need a traditional PG. But it's a numbers game, so he's gonna have a tough time getting on the Milwaukee roster. But hey, Christian Wood had a tough time, and now he's looking good for Detroit.

When Bender's on the Herd roster, he's the best prospect, imo.

Really like the $100,000 winter showcase tournament the G-league added this season. Seedings are based on the standings heading into the tournament, with the top four seeds best placed to advance. It’s a nice incentive to promote early season focus & continuity in league who’s nature is to be in flux. They clearly borrowed from the successful TBT cash prize model. Hopefully they keep jacking up the earnings to continue attracting top talent to the league. Be great to see the Herd get that money.

Would the Herd ever travel to Mexico for G League games to play the Capitanes? Or is it all regional based conferences, so only southern teams go.

12 in a row.

30 (30!) game winning streak for the organization.

I liked how he stated to drive to the hoop a lot, when his shot wasn't dropping, and earned 14 free throws... That Euro step dunk was amazing.

Wish I could say. You can watch the condensed games on YouTube so that can give you an idea if you don’t mind spending 15 minutes

Rapidly improving. Activity level has really gone up after first few games. He has really good lateral quickness.

Herd win streak is snapped in a 1 point loss, as they played without PGs Mason or Adam's. Rayjon Tucker was awesome again, this time with 35 points on 13-24 shooting, 7 assists to just 2 turnovers, and a slew of ridiculous power dunks.

Tucker is our Norman Powell

BroncoBuck · Post #1073 » by **BroncoBuck** » Tue Dec 17, 2019 4:41 am

Decided to go to the game tomorrow. Hopefully this year’s team is more fun to watch than the past couple. Daulton Hommes from our Summer League team is on the opposing team so that’ll be fun to watch.

Im really excited to see Samanic in action. There has been a lot of “The Spurs are falling” talk lately, but Samanic might be the real deal. Really liked him in the draft.

Herd absolutely putting it on the Austin Spurs in the 1st. Tucker has been phenomenal. 2-3 of these guys will be getting NBA checks before the season’s over.

Wonder what it means that Bledsoe is out and Mason is in Oshkosh? How many NBA days does Mason have left?

Chiozza is available, equally good option imo.

bucksfansince88 · Post #1076 » by **bucksfansince88** » Wed Dec 18, 2019 2:30 am

We might have to give Rayjon one of the two ways ASAP! He’s better than Cam Reynolds

The broadcasters were wondering if Mason would be with the Bucks or in Vegas this weekend trying to help the Herd win a hundred grand. Don’t think tonight means anything one way or another. Feel like he could be giving the Bucks 10-15 good minutes right now taking some pressure off the ball handlers. His pull up three is coming around a little bit.

Watched Mason and Chiozza have a fun little battle in the beginning of the season, think Mason is a tier above. Like Chiozza though.

He’s been really impressive. His motor, athleticism and confidence are all great signs. Adams was out last night and Tucker really flourished with the ball in his hands more. I still wonder about his NBA fit but his upside might be enough that you get him signed and figure it out later. He’s hitting his threes but his FT% and release still make me question if it’d translate. If I were a bad team like Atlanta I’d have already been all over him by now. For the Bucks I’d still prefer Adams.

I really think we need to get Tucker on a 2 way sooner rather than later
