Thank you for all the kind words. I will do my best to bring an NBA title back to the great fans of the Bucks!

Great News! This team needs change and if they do hire Carlisle, look for a total roster change. Looking forward the off-season and seeing some major changes next season! This is Wondeful News!!!

Go Bucks!

– Hard-ass
– Winner
– Play D or hit the road
– Notoriously difficult to get along with

Sometime in early January I wrote a post about how Krystkowiak should be fired and Carlisle the replacement. Look in the monthly archives, it should be one of the first January posts.

Hey Brett, let’s hear some more analysis on Carlisle.

Holy shit! Excuse me, but this is good news. Nice analysis on Hammond, Brett. Hopefully now the Bucks can finally have a 50 win season again. As Bill Johnson said, “If you try to build a team around two foreign big men, you’re in trouble”. Bogut is just finally starting to pan out, Yi should be gone though. I don’t care how many fans over in China there are of him. Screw David Stern and his international marketing bullshit. They’re not spending their money at the Bradley Center in Milwaukee, WI, so fuck ‘em.

Of course you never say never, but Yi is going NOWHERE. There’s way too much money on the line — not just for the Bucks, but for the city. I’d be shocked if he was on the bench more than 25% of his games played next season (health permitting, of course).

And yes, I too am happy today. Nice to see the Bucks do something right for a change.
