Frank talks Bucks free agency with Bill Michaels

16

With the start of the NBA's annual free agency frenzy less than 48 hours away, I joined Bill Michaels on 105.7 The Fan to talk big man options, what it might cost to keep Khris Middleton, and expectations for Bucks rookie Rashad Vaughn.

Giannis shows off his moves during dance battle in Taiwan

Giannis was in Taiwan a few weeks back and appeared to be quite the popular figure over there. Perhaps one reason why he was such a hit is because he's willing to participate in dance battles with fans. Like his basketball game, his dance moves could use some fine tuning, but there's a lot to like here. Keep on dancing like nobody's watching, Giannis

Oubre to Bucks in Boston Globe mock

8

Yours truly selected Kansas wing Kelly Oubre for the Bucks in today's Boston Globe mock draft. My brief rationale:

The Bucks are already loaded with young talent on the wing, and in an ideal world they might have preferred a versatile big like Bobby Portis at #17. Still, Oubre’s smooth stroke and two-way potential likely provide too much value to pass up at this stage of the draft, and his combination of length and defensive versatility would seem a perfect fit for Jason Kidd’s switching, pressuring defense.

For what it's worth I've picked Kevon Looney in a couple of other mocks, but this is the first one where Oubre lasted all the way to 17. And variety is the spice of life, right?

A must-read NBA free agency primer

+

Fantastic ranking and summary of all the upcoming free agents this summer. Ziller's note on Middleton: Middleton looks like the classic role player who gets massively overpaid based on one really good season, a la Bobby Simmons. Here’s how Middleton is different: he’ll be just 24 next season with two strong deep-shooting seasons and he’s excelled under two (very) different coaches. He’s more proven than you think. Given the future of the salary cap, you wonder if a team will throw $15 million per year or more at him to see if Milwaukee blinks.

Support Bucks' development plans TONIGHT

2

As we detailed last week, the County Board will be holding a public hearing tonight on the Bucks' proposal to develop a $400 million ancillary development on the Park East property. Note this would be a privately-funded project that would come in ADDITION to the proposed $500 million arena.

The hearing begins at 5:30 at the War Memorial Center on the lakefront, with Play It Forward holding a press conference at 5:00. Along with the fine folks at Play It Forward and Save Our Bucks, we'd encourage everyone who's available to wear their Bucks colors and show their support!
