--New Bucks coach Scott Skiles is on the brink of finalizing his coaching staff. Skiles intends to hire Jim Boylan, who was on his staff with the Bulls and replaced him as head coach on Dec. 24; Joe Wolf, who was the head coach of the Colorado 14ers last season and a native of Kohler, Wis.; former Indiana University head coach Kelvin Sampson and Lionel Hollins, who had been a head coach and assistant coach for the Grizzlies.

--Besides firing four assistant coaches -- Jim Todd, Tony Brown, Brian James and Jarinn Akana -- new Bucks general manager John Hammond fired athletic trainer/travel coordinator Andre Daniel and John Anderson, an assistant athletic trainer and assistant strength and conditioning coach.

--Dave Babcock, the Bucks' director of player personnel, has been scouting in Europe and will attend the Euroleague Final Four in Madrid, Spain. If the draft were held today, the Bucks would have the seventh overall pick. One player who is expected to be drafted in that range is forward Danilo Gallinari, who plays for Armani Jeans Milano in Italy's top league.

QUOTE TO NOTE
"He's a true point guard. I haven't played with a true point guard since I've been here, really. I think he did a great job of trying to find teammates first and shoot second. Hopefully, he'll keep that mentality." -- Bucks C Andrew Bogut, on rookie point guard Ramon Sessions, who became a starter late in the season when Mo Williams was sidelined with pubic symphysitis.

Hey this is a Magic fan here and I was just wondering if Michael Redd is going to be with the Bucks next year? I've heard his name mentioned a couple times about him leaving and going into free agency. Just wonde ...(more)

 Hey it would be Great! to get upto 1 or 2 and get Rose not counting on it though, PLEASE DON'T TAKE THAT OVER-HYPT NO LOAD

ERIC GORDON! I'll be so disappointed with that, especially since it's a possibility w/ Sampson on our staff now.

I'd rather see that Italian Guy or Chris Douglass roberts than him. Time to chime in now Buck loyalists.

With Ramon Sessions budding play, what do the Bucks do with him? Do they give him an opportunity to play by trading Mo Williams, or do you have him as an amazing point guard tandem?

I like the new coaching staff the Bucks have in place but at the same time I wonder if they were the right moves for the Bucks to get better? What are your thoughts?

WHO SHOULD THE Bucks DRAFT IF THEY END UP WITH THE #1 PICK??

I BELIEVE THEY SHOULD TAKE ROSE. THEY HAVEN'T HAD A GOOD POINT GUARD SINCE JAY HUMPHRIES(LOL). THE NBA IS PROVING THAT A GREAT POINT GUARD CAN CONTROL THE GAME SIMILAR TO THE COLLEGE GAME.

 I can see that sman1965 bothers almost every team on their message board. While trash talking is fun, just seeing this guys posts makes me fell like I am back in the 3rd grade.

I am proposing a boycott of any thread he starts, and to any posts he makes on other threads as well...

Maybe he will start to talk smart sports conversation or maybe he will jus ...(more)

Think about it, Detorit, Clevland, Atlanta, Toronto, Orlando, Washington, Boston and Philadelphia all made the playoffs. Indiana is getting better and New Jersey is goingto be tough. Miami will be back with a healthy D-wade. Where do the Milwaukee Bucks stack up in a eastern Confrence that appears to be getting better? Any thoughts fellas?

On ESPN there's rumors that Kelvin Sampson is headed to the Bucks as an assassint coach.  Buck fans do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?

It is obvious the Bucks need to do a lot of work in the offseason to make the team somewhat competitive. There are a lot of things that need to change. What do you think the Bucks should do?

You all laughed when i said Ramon Sessions is a good player and will probably be the next Micheal Redd but acutally passes the ball. Well he took one step closer to being something great with 20 pts 24 asts. and 8 rebounds so im going to take this moment and shove the $hit right back into the peoples mouth that said t ...(more)
