The Milwaukee Bucks had a dissappointing year. After trading for Richard Jefferson and having Michael Redd, it looked as if a serious move was going to happen. Andrew Bogut and Redd played for less than half the season. And that made all the difference. This is a crucial time for the Bucks. Keith Bogans and Damon Jones are both free agents. Charlie Vllanueva had a break out year and is a restricted free agent. And, to top things off, Jefferson and Redd both could opt out of their contracts next summer. If things don't go well this year, that could happen. Also, Ramon Sessions was a nice surprise. He is also a restricted free agent.
They have a nice starting lineup: PG-RAMON SESSIONS SG-REDD SF-JEFFERSON PF-VILLANUEVA C-BOGUT.
And the bench will have Luke Ridnour backing up the point and Charlie Bell with starting experience at the other guard. Joe Alexander did nicely as a rookie last year. Help inside off the bench would be nice. There are many good point guards in this year's draft and many mock drafts have the Bucks taking one. This would make sense if they plan not to match offers on Sessions. Or if they plan on more trades. The Bucks have the 10th and 41st picks of the draft. The 10th pick in the past 14 years has produced 2 all-stars and 7 starters and 6 bench players. So, it figures that they will get a quality player. The 41st pick has produced one starter and 2 bench players during the same span. The Bucks could be a viable threat this year if they stay signed and healthy.
