Actually I disagree. If he loses a step he'll just move up a few positions. He's strong enough to present a mismatch at the 4 with his spacing and playmaking. Bronson would need to lose 3 steps to be unplayable.

I really don't see the need for so many Bucks fans to denigrate Brogdon. He is a very good player that we all wish we had on our team. Unfortunately, team building isn't that simple and there are a lot of logistics that go into it all and it didn't work out for MKE to keep him. It was a decision that could've gone either way and it's perfectly understandable and fine why they went the route they did. Hope it works out for the Bucks and hope Brogdon stays healthy and does well, hopefully without Indy every being a serious threat to the Bucks.

Buy him out and let him go hang out on the Raptors bench for the rest of the season/playoffs imo.

Thanks Prez for beating the Lakers.... Really takes some of the sting out of the mavericks loss.

Wonder what his role will end up being with his MS.

He can't travel/ be at a bench due to his health issue (multiple sclirosis...), his basketball future can only be as a part of a FO

Are you saying that Malcom Brogdon is going to be able to play the 4 in the NBA when he becomes LESS athletic?

Vince Carter plays the 4. What's your point?

This is great for both, Blatt will bring his ball IQ to the table especially playmaking strategy. Consultant is really the best position for a guy with health issues, im a big fan of this move.

Yeah that's a good hire for the Knicks. Not sure that's a sentence I've ever written.

Was wondering if Miami were ever going to score enough against Philly. Went back to the box score and see they piled it on in the second.

This game actually looks how I'm predicting our game against them will look - poor 3 pt shooting that stakes Philly and early lead that gets cut when the 6ers lack of playmakers really shows itself as the game progresses before the Bucks pull away for a pretty comfortable lead.

Miami's starting to feel like the most dangerous team in the East to us.

Boston lacks talent. More talented teams like us, Dallas, both LA teams, Houston, Toronto, and more will give them problems on any given night. And even maybe Philly

NBA broadcasters talk about “alpha guys” so much it makes me wonder what kinda porn they’re into...

I've thought this for awhile. Bam becoming legitimately good is a game changer for them.

The USA Basketball staff (Pop, Kerr, Loyd Pierce) is a combined 21-61 so far this season.
