The Bucks got this tanking sh*t down to a science

[CelticBaller]

I just feel bad for whatever future star has to wear that horrible color schemed uniform.

Seriously milwaukee, change those putrid christmas colors

Denver went with a whole new color scheme, logo and jersies when they drafted Melo. Milwauke can very well do the same

[j3lademaster]

Hehe, says the guy whose team used to wear the pink/orange/turquoise monstrosities:

Takes a real man to sport the colors commonly seen on a sorority girl's volkswagon.

No problems, they should be headed to Seattle soon

Seattle Bucks, all the hipsters here would be all over that.

[B-Easy8]

Draft Wiggins and make the longest team ever.

Would be so fun to watch.

Knight
Wiggins
Giannis
Henson
Sanders

The Bucks are the epitome of mediocre. I hate them for it. Signing mid-level talent to bad contracts over the last however many years, just so they can sneak the 8th seed, or ultimately miss out. Least they're finally giving tanking a go.

[OmniStrife]

The Bucks have been competitive in the past

8th seed in the east = competitive

Bucks didn't mean to tank. But when Ilyasova, Sanders, Caron, Mayo, Delfino, and Zaza all go down there isn't much left to compete with.

A tanking team doesn't sign Caron Butler, OJ Mayo, Zaza, Neal, and Ridnour in the offseason.

Thankfully everyone has been injured/awful and the Bucks have an opportunity to get a great pick in the ideal draft to have a great pick.

If they could sign Bledsoe to a Max deal and roll out:

Bledsoe
Wiggins
Antetokounmpo
Henson/Ilyasova
Sanders

with H/I, Mayo, Knight, Zaza, Delfino, et all coming off the bench

Would be great defensively immediately with obscene length and within a few years could be rolling deep into the playoffs.

i predicted them being the worst team in the league even before those guys went down.

their coach is hella meh, Sanders and Mayo are solid role players but if they are your best and 2nd best player...

8th seed in the east = competitive

Would've went to the Finals in '01 if it wasn't for bullshit officiating.

Sanders is a defensive stopper. Was a top 5 defensive player in the NBA last year. He is a net negative on the offensive side of the court. But he has played >23 min 3 times this year.

Ilyasova is a far better than OJ. I know PER is lazy but OJ has never had a 15 season and Illy was 20.5 and 18.3 the last two years. But he has been injured the entire year and his production has plummeted.

Henson has also been outstanding. But he plays essentially the same position as Sanders.

Sanders can defend but u can't build around a player like that.

[Bigsmoke]

can yall imagine if the bucks were to play in the West?

[HylianNightmare]

i bet they mess up the pick, draft Eembid who busts or something
