Guiness Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 For me, I think Milwaukee will be the surprise team this year. I can easily see them reach the 2nd round of the playoffs. If MCW and Parker can stay healthy that is.... Also, I think Jason Kidd is one of the more underrated coaches in the NBA. Nobody really expected them to be that good last year, and I think this is mostly because of him... The bucks advancing in the 2nd round depends on who they face in the first round. Record wise, you have the Cavs, Hawks, Bulls and Heat who are clearly the more talented teams in the east. But being in the weaker conference they might be able to get a jump on the bulls and heat due to injuries. Quote Link to comment
Mad Damian Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Dependable jumpshot? Middleton, Bayless, and Mayo. Giannis and Parket are not as steady as the better jump shooters in the league like Kobe but they're getting there. Then again, shooters are always necessary but I'd rather have an abundance of close range and low post scorers for higher percentage shots. Oh... and let's not forget the defense. The Bucks are elite on D last season specially if they want to. As for reality check... I don't think the post ever needed any. It's very realistic. I never counted out the Cavs (or LeBron). My point being the Bucks will be a force in the East in the foreseeable future. My money is on Middleton.Bayless and Mayo are both talented players but erratic.Good luck to the Bucks though.

I agree that the Bucks advancing to the second round this season would still be an upset over their would-be opponent but I'm excited just the same. Quote Link to comment
secret999 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Sure playoff team I think. Kailangan lang ng shooting since si Middleton lang ang magaling sa three sa starters. Great defensive team also because of all the length on the perimeter. Sa tingin ko 6th seed in the east behind cle, chi, mia, was, atl and tor. Quote Link to comment
bullet_shockwave Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Great young team. Though I'm not really sold with MCW. They'll be fun to watch! Quote Link to comment
Eddy Syet Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Great young team. Though I'm not really sold with MCW. They'll be fun to watch! I agree. I would have loved to have Knight stay but it's a financial move. MCW can still be had for 2 (3?) more years with his "rookie contract" and the Bucks needed to clear some space to sign Monroe.

Eddy Syet Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Here are the Bucks' all-time leaders in career rebounding total: Kareem Abdul Jabbar - 7,161 rebounds Bob Dandridge - 4,497 Marques Johnson - 3,923 Andrew Bogut - 3,810 Terry Cummings - 3,758 Glenn Robinson - 3,519 Sidney Moncrief - 3,447 Jack Sikma - 3,087 Vin Baker - 3,079 Alton Lister - 3,062 Only Bogut is still active among the players on the list.

Eddy Syet Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 The Milwaukee Bucks took a significant step toward landing a new arena Tuesday as the city's common council voted in favor of a $47 million spending plan, according to Tom Daykin of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Source: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2570712-milwaukee-bucks-new-arena-latest-news-rumors-speculation-on-potential-deal What this means? This should literally k*ll all speculations and rumors that Milwaukee will lose their basketball franchise. The Bucks will remain in Milwaukee for years to come. Quote Link to comment

Eddy Syet Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 The Bucks have locked up premiere shot-blocker John Henson for 4 years with a new $44M contract. Henson averaged 2.0 blocks per game while playing only 18 mins/game last season. He also averaged 7.0 ppg, 4.7 rpg, and shot 56.6% FG. Great job, Milwaukee! Quote Link to comment
Eddy Syet Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 (edited) How the Bucks landed Greg Monroe "I knew what they had going on here," Monroe said. "I enjoyed all my free-agent meetings, but after hearing what they told me, I knew this was my best option." - Greg Monroe Here's the story: http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/13885602/nba-how-milwaukee-bucks-landed-greg-monroe Edited October 15, 2015 by Eddy Syet Quote Link to comment

Eddy Syet Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Bleacherreport.com recently posted the result of their annual GM survey and this question kinda stood out for me. Apparently, according to GM's, two of the top five players most likely to have a breakout season are wearing Bucks uniforms - The Greek Freak and Jabari Parker! Quote Link to comment
Eddy Syet Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 One more week before the NBA season starts. We're ready! The goal for this year is to win more than 41 games, get into the playoffs again, and hopefully win the first round series. The last goal's just a bonus. Getting back into the playoffs with more than 41 wins would be cool. Quote Link to comment

Boss James Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 May potential tong mga batang to. I expect them to reach mga 2nd round ng playoffs. Unless na walang injuries na mangyari. Quote Link to comment
Cap™ Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I expect them to reach mga 2nd round ng playoffs I fret about their lack of shooters though. Parang si Khris Middleton lang ang outside gunner nila with a consistent stroke Quote Link to comment
Eddy Syet Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I fret about their lack of shooters though. Parang si Khris Middleton lang ang outside gunner nila with a consistent stroke That is so true but the Bucks are already among the league's best on defense. The reason for bringing in Monroe was to improve on their rank 25th offense. Still... they could use some shooters though. After all, defense wins in the playoffs. Quote Link to comment

Guiness Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I just read that some bucks players are out like O.J. Mayo (hamstring), Giannis Antetokounmpo (suspension) and Jabari Parker (knee) are out. Quote Link to comment
