Lue signs with the Bucks

so now he will be their 4th string PG

he had phx, miami etc...and he choses MILWAUKEE

dude needs to read gil's block

Mo Williams, Michael Redd, Richard Jefferson, Charlie Villanueva, Andrew Bogut
Ramon Sessions, Charlie Bell, Desmond Mason, Joe Alexander, Dan Gadzuric
Tyronn Lue, Awvee Storey, LR Mbah a Moute, Malik Allen

I don't get what their doing. Signing tons of PGs, trading and drafting tons of small forwards. Signing Bogut to a monster contract. I don't get it.

I can garuntee they're not done making moves, they are going to trade Mo and/or Villanueva before the season starts.

BTW Lue is a third-string right now, but I'm thinking that the reason he signed is becasue they said he may become a 2nd string after they trade Mo, so he'll get alot more PT then he would on a contender.

They signed Lue to probably mentor Sessions since hes been great for them, and they also needed veteran leadership..Lue probably wont even get many minutes under him but they just signed him to help the others because just look at the roster, who has been deep into the playoffs other then Jefferson and Lue?

absolutely no one .

Redd was on the roster for the 2001 ECF (which was fixed) but other than that no one has gotten past the first round I don't think.

seriously, the whole experience thing is a bit overrated IMO. how much experience did the hornets have against the mavs?

Well the Hornets actually have talented players as opposed to the Bucks. I would rather have experienced garbage than inexperienced garbage. I think that has some part in why Milwaukee chose to pursue Lue & Allen as opposed to Kwame and Birdman like it was rumored.

redd and rj make a legit scoring duo. i don't know about cv starting but bogut is a 15/10 guy. sessions is a decent PG. scoring should not really be a problem. scott skiles is a good coach.

I watched alot of Bucks games last year, and yes scoring is not going to be a problem. If Milwaukee keeps their current roster, they're defense is going to be absolutely terrible. Another issue is getting enough shot attempts for everyone. Mo, Redd, RJ, and Charlie V are all chuckers that only make an effort on one side of the ball. The only decent player on the bench is Sessions, and Alexander was just complete shit in the summer league.

I know I defended Bogut individually as being a great player, but the Bucks are not going to be a playoff team until after they start rebuilding, which hopefully will be after this season.

Charlie V isnt all that bad..hes like a Odom type player but of course Odom is better and much more talented, but hes inconsistent, but has alot of weapons so he can be a threat. No doubt about that though he will definitely start at PF..well i see it that way anyway their lineup isnt bad at all.

Bogut
Villanueva
Jefferson
Redd
Sessions or Mo

About the experience thing, it really hurts a team who hasnt been there as much..the Pistons are getting old and there are some teams in the East that are more talented(whole team wise) but id take the Pistons anyday because of their leadership with Billups and their experience in closing out games. Also look at the Lakers - Celtics series, look when they were down by 24..the only experience they had was Kobe and we all know he cant single handedly carry a team to win a championship. Gasol got shut down, Odom couldnt do anything but Pierce, Ray Ray and Garnett were just killing them. I think experience plays a part in a pivotal game because it effects your mental ability as well as your physical.

For Charlie V, yeah he can be a beast on certain nights, but som games he just chucks 3s that for some reason he still thinks he can make. He took 185 3PAs and shot under 30%, there's no excuse for that. If he uses his athletisism to his advantage against slower forwards, he can be a solid 15/7 player, like a poor man's Odom like you said.
He doesn't put in any effort on defense though, just like the rest of the Bucks besides Bogut. Like I said there won't be any problem scoring points, they'll just be giving up 10 more.
