2024-25 Milwaukee Bucks Season Thread

Horst thinks he's going to do a Hammond draft, and has Giannis' future replacement in this pick. He's mistaken. The kid might be good, but it will only start to develop during his second contract, because he can't hit hoops with any regularity. When he's on the floor, they'll sag off and let him have any shot he wants from 15' on out. He's a "dead eye" less than 30% of the time, which will not earn him many minutes to develop, except in total blow outs.
 
Bucks sign Gary Trent Jr to one year vet min deal. Good signing here. He could have got more else but taking gamble he can rebuild career with a good team and get bigger contract next year.

Also means Thanasis is off the roster well at least until sometime early next year as he tore his achillies and won't be back to around the all-star break.
 
Former MKE Buck Junior Bridgeman buying a 10% stake in the Bucks. No word in the report who is selling the shares to him.

Good. Junior is a Buck supporter through and through. The more he owns of the team, the better off we are.

I knew he was quite the businessman, but in reading about him he's done very well for himself!

NBA GMs overwhelmingly pick Celtics to repeat

The annual survey of all 30 of the NBA's general managers has overwhelmingly picked the Celtics to repeat as champions, while identifying Spurs big man Victor Wembanyama as the player they'd most like to start a franchise with.

Sadly enough, they might not do better than that. It appears Khris is already injured, and so is our new shooting guard, Gary Trent, Jr, with a hyper-extended elbow. Not a great start, and they aren't even into the real games yet.

It's also going to be our last year having Lillard, and I think the dismantling starts after this season. It's sad how this window of opportunity to dominate the league was wasted by dumb decisions on player personnel, and wasteful trades of draft picks, for people who contributed nothing.

I still think Horst has to go, and hopefully, Junior Bridgeman can throw together a group who can buy out Lasrey and the rest of his cronies. These people are cancer to an organization.
 
Ok super early in the season but I am already to write off the Bucks they just look awful. every loss so far is by double digits. It's a old team who's window is shut. I think by mid-season trade deadline this will be a team of sellers.
 
After watching last night's game, I'm inclined to believe it's time to dump the roster and start over. Clean house from the house down, including sell the team to people who really care about delivering a quality product to Milwaukee. Bridgeman would be the only owner I'd want to stay.

I was totally dismayed by the lack of team unity on the floor last night. They stink! They may very well be one of the worst teams in the NBA. It reminds me of the years where we were an NBA doormat. There's nothing there to interest a fan.

I get tired of them not even trying to work the ball in to the post, and guys who can't hit them throwing up awkward 3s. There's rarely anyone even resembling close enough to the rim to challenge for rebounds, and their passing is worse than 5th graders.

As far as coaching, watching our clown head coach is frustrating too. Doc hasn't got a clue as to how to fix this circus.
 
My oversimplified thoughts on the Bucks:

Bucks started downhill slide after they won championship and management started meddling with a cohesive team. Several championship Bucks contributing huge elsewhere and several new-better Bucks not getting the job done.

Then they got rid of coach Bud.

Big headed management thinking they won the championship.
