  1. My take on ROY...

    First off, as most folks know, I've been "sold" on Brandon Jennings since
    day one. But, Tyreke Evans is an absolute MONSTER. AGAIN, Evans is
    on pace to average 20/5/5. The ONLY other rookies who have
    accomplished this feat are Jordan, Lebron, and The Big "O". Thats some
    company. Stephon Curry is also having a fine year. Is it their fault
    they're on sh.tty teams? No. HOWEVER, team W/L record played a big
    factor in All-Star selections. Why wouldnt it play a big factor in the ROY
    race? All I know is as an NBAer, Brandon Jennings has a .554 winning
    %. He's played well all season long. He's been given the keys to a
    franchise, in a "rebuilding" year, that has 3 winning seasons in the past
    18. It would be a tough pill to swallow if Horford made the AS team
    over Bogut because of the Hawks' record AND Jennings lost out on ROY
    because of Evans' #'s. They should be mutually exclusive, but as Bucks'
    fans, it seems our guys might get the short end of the stick twice, for
    contradicting reasons. And, AGAIN, I think this could go down as one
    of, if not THE best class of PG's in NBA history. Jennings, Evans, Curry,
    Flynn, Collison, Rubio, Jrue Holiday, Lawson, even Toney Douglass.

    Sorry for the double post, just realized it was a new thread
  2. Numero uno
  3. Time to step up, Charlie Bell. Next one in.
  4. I'd like for Salmons to stay at SG and start Stack at SF, but I guess there
    is no changing Skiles' opinion of Bell. He loves him. I wonder if Skiles
    realizes how well this team has played since Bell moved to the end of the
    bench. Yes, I realize Salmons has a lot to do with the success, but even
    earlier in the year when Bell logged "DNP's" the Bucks seemed to play
  5. Sorry, winning is what matters and sticks in the minds of voters in this league. Evans *may* be the better individual player, a monster in fact. However, his team is largely forgotten in a studly West and Jennings is on the floor, literally leading his team to the post season in his rookie season.

    That's a feat that will not go unnoticed nor unrewarded.

    Say what you want, but his stat lines aren't all that great but they're not terrible either. He's doing what he has to (as any PG should) with other players stepping up (Bogut, Salmons, Stack, etc, etc) and doing the little, intangible things that get no mention in the ROY race.

    At any rate, KUDOS to the entire time and Hammond for getting things to this point in Year One of the Rebuilding Plan.

    Postseason UPSET in series number one against a lazy, aging Boston club.

    You heard it hear first.

    Go Bucks!
  6. Bell sucks
  7. bell is the obvious choice to move into the starting spot. why start stack and disrupt your entire rotation just b/c delfino is out?
  8. "bell is the obvious choice to move into the starting spot. why start stack

    You mean like moving Salmons to the #3, a position he hasn't played as a
    Buck, to make room for Charlie Bell in the starting lineup? That is more of
    a disruption than simply swapping Delfino for Stack.
  9. bell gets 24 min
    royal gets 14 min
    ridnour gets 10 min
    at SG
    clippers have eric gordan as their sg
    hes 6'4, good shooter, cant leave him open
    and if he has an open lane, he will drive and dunk it
    i wouldnt mind having all of the minutes split between bell and royal but thats alot of minutes for guys who are NOT in our rotation

    another option would be
    to play ersan more minutes at PF
    and moute minutes at SF
    keeping salmons at SG
    as much as possible

    i prefer this option
    ive been calling for ersan and moute to be out there together
  10. Beasy -

    Skiles will pull Bell in favor of Stackhouse shortly after the game begins when he realizes his mistake. No worries. With Stack's hot-shooting as of late, he's the obvious choice to get the major minutes anyways. Regardless of Bell starting in Delfino's absence.

    The big X-factors are going to be Luc and Salmons.

    Go Bucks!
