- Our man Rob Peterson interviewed John Hammond for NBA.com last week. Thanks for dropping our name, Rob. Have we mentioned how much we love Rob Peterson over at BrewHoop HQ?
- Gery Woelfel writes that the Bucks aren't right without Michael Redd.
- Luc Mbah a Moute's all-around excellence has a lot of people doing a double-take, but not our friends at Bruins Nation.
- InsideHoops catches Andrew Bogut in a pretty good mood. That's probably because the interview was conducted a few games ago, on Nov. 2.
Basketball is fun again in Milwaukee. Coach’s system is a tough system to learn, but it’s proven to get results and I’ve enjoyed the last few games.
- Speaking of Bogut, Shaquille O'Neal supposedly* wrote the below quote in his supposed Twitter feed following the win over the Bucks. Since we all know The Big Aristotle is such a big battle-rapper... Shaq / what you lack / is humility / even more than free-throw shooting ability. That said, he sure does have Bogut's number in head-to-head matchups. (*It's not verified that this is Shaq's Twitter feed. And thanks to Phoenix Stan at BSoS and Ben Q Rock of 3QC in Fanshots for the heads-up on this story.)
Bogut is Erika Dampier with a beard.
- Ball Don't lie ranks the Bucks the 19th best team in the National Basketball Association.

- At The Hive hosts the blogger team power rankings, where the Bucks are pegged 21st.
- Marc Stein at ESPN.com agrees, ranking the Bucks 21st as well.
