Hammond Interview

My read on the Redd discussion: the Bucks have moved on, and Redd’s playoff no-show sort of embodied that. No ill will toward Redd, but they’re not counting on anything. Very different from last year when Hammond was touting all summer how well Redd’s rehab was going and how they expected him back at 100% by camp.

The buyout question is kind of silly as long as Redd is hurt—he keeps getting paid his $18.3 million and the Bucks are only on the hook for 20% of it. Until Redd can make a living playing basketball he has no incentive to take a dime less than $18.3 million in a buyout, and the Bucks have no incentive to buy him out unless he’s willing to take 20% or less of his salary.

Now I’m just curious if/how the Bucks can prevent him from putting on a Bucks uniform again…

like the subtle freeze from both sides…..

If you go onto the Bucks website, or looked at any of their recent marketing materials, the man is nowhere to be found. Just like on the Buck’s bench. I’m oh so curious as to what will come of this come fall. Will he be at camp? At games? Anywhere near Milwaukee? November can’t come soon enough :)

But I did the straight MP3 link and only got a minute worth of time. I hope I’m the only one who has this problem though.
