As of right now Bucks are picking at #7 before the lottery balls bounce.

It has us picking Terrence Ross as of today. In the second round at #37 has us picking Herb Pope.

After that depressing loss, I'm looking forward to the draft.

This team isn't even fun to watch, you know they will lose in the end. I love the idea of blowing this team up, start with Hammond, Skiles. Bogut can't stay healthy enough to play ever, just start all over.

WORST IDEA EVER.

Ever hear the saying winning cures everything? Yah you could tatoo that on Mr. Bogut. Seriously though for like 7 years now the guy has been easily the most consistant player on this team, brought his "lunchpale" work ethic with him, and in return what has our team done to surround him with winning talent? None.

We are so close to being a winning team it ridiculous, and never before has good coaching become so evident than now with these Milwaukee Bucks.

They have enough talent to hang around with many teams, even could beat most of them, what they lack is adequate coaching, it starts with Skiles but anytime you have Jim Boylan as your assistant coach you are not doing a good job of hiring.

My take-----

Lose as much as possible this year, cuz the season is only 66 games yaay! Draft anyone by the name of Andre Drummond, Harrison Barnes, Anthony Davis or even Jeremy Lamb, fire Scott Skiles and start using this young talent that we have.

Maybe draft Glenn Robinson son in a couple years? He's a senior in high school at the moment. But maybe he stays in college one season then comes out as a freshmen? Or did the NBA change the rules on age coming out? Possibly be in 2013 draft or 2014.

I'm jst saying from '05-'06 till '10-'11 out of 492 regular season games played Bogut has only played in 396 I think that means he misses an average of 16 games a year. I know he had the horrific elbow injury but still that is alot of games missed. He averages 9.4 rebounds a year and 12.4 points in his career I love the guy he does work hard but those numbers are not an elite players, he would be great trade bait. Hammond really needs to do better in the draft, so far he really only hit on Luc and Jennings. I just think Skiles can't get these guys to play together, it is a team game. I see to many guys just standing around, watch any game and the only player moving is the guy with the ball.

PCS- he only problem I have with getting rid of Bogut, is that I feel very strongly that you cannot win a championchip without an Andrew Bogut type player, a guy who gets the rebounds and basically does the dirty work.

Without Bogut, who is seriously going to rebound the ball on a consistant basis? Jon Leuer? Pretty sure we saw what happens when he goes up againts elite talent right now E. G. Blake Griffin last night.

All we need a a 2 guy who shoots a DECENT percentage, plays decent defense, and has a decent attitude, oh and btw is athletic enough to hang with Jennings, because he needs someone sooo bad.

But you also can't win a championship without a go to scorer and an elite superstar. Heck, in today's nba you almost need 2 or 3 legit superstars. I agree that you do need a Bogut type player, (defensive minded center who rebounds) but its easier to find those types of player than stars. If we can trade Bogut for a relatively early draft pick, or a couple young player, I think we can develop another Bogut type player. Heck, if Sanders puts on some weight, he could easily be an Ervin Johnson type guy, who was the perfect center for a team with a bunch of scorers.

[MadtownBuck]

They need another pair of athletic, hard working players like Harris and Leuer.

Bucks need a young sg. Enough with the old stop gaps in Salmons and Jackson. Hammond was in such a hurry to trade Jodie Meeks.

[Pcs Papa]

Should have held on to Meeks.

Best idea. No doubt about it...

I almost forgot about that guy. I really liked him when we drafted him. Wow, they screwed this team up worse than I originally thought.

[MILLERHIGHLIFE]

76ers trade Royal Ivey, Primoz Brezec and second round pick to Bucks for Jodie Meeks, Francisco Elson. That trade was horrible. I believe that second round pick was when we had three that draft. Tiny Gallon,Hobson and Jerome Jordan we sold to the Knicks for a Million.

I'm revoking on Patrick Young a bit, I saw him early in the year and he looked like a man possesed. Last week in a game he liked pretty timid, that was my reasoning for the earlier post. I still like him just not around the lottery. At this pace we will lose almost every road game and end up with a top 5 pick. Anthony Davis would be my target if we keep this pace. Then trade Bogut for a 1st and go after a good FA.
