Yeah. This one isn't happening. This guy is a classic case of a dude that looks like he should be good, but isn't. Like Wes Johnson.

I wish Flip would step down and hire Malone as coach. He's really, really good! Flip was inviting him to hang out on road trips during the season, but nothing ever came of it.
Bucks will be good in a year or two, so there is some up side. I think my favorite part of the game was...
"you should take rose out now"
Bucket
"You should take out rose now."
Bucket
"Rose should really come out now"
Bucket
All within 45 seconds or so.

They're a really interesting team. The whole super athletic oversized thing will allow them to play a pretty crazy always switch defense that will probably end up being pretty formidable, but unless Parker really develops I'm not sure where their offensive upside is. However, I suppose having Parker for that is about as good of a prospect as you could ask for.

There's no way the Bucks can keep Middleton, Parker, and Giannis, right? Middleton's gone this summer and that hurts this team a lot. The ceiling for the next couple years is entirely tied to how good Giannis and Parker become.

Middleton doesn't fit in with the hyper athletic mold but theoretically he's so good you could play him at the 2 and Parker at the 4...or Giannis at the 4...and then just switch all those guys on defense. Parker probably turns into Jeff Green in that scenario though so who knows. Truth is his injury really makes it hard to project his development.
I would just give up on Parker and offer Middleton whatever is needed to keep him if I had to pick between the two. They won't do that though. And I even understand that's pretty crazy considering how valuable rookie deals are. Middleton is just that good.
Stand by previous statements on the guy. Whoever lands Khris for next year, for whatever cost, gets the steal of the offseason.

CP3 in the 2nd half was nuts. Even more amazing was seeing his passing keeping the team in the hunt in the first half given the nothing he was giving the team in scoring.

Ujiri gets an A+ for the offseason if he moves Ross to the bench and signs Middleton as our new 3. That and getting a backup center that can come in and play defense/rebound when Valanciunas isn't on the floor. I got really sick of seeing Patterson, Amir, and Hansbrough playing the 5. Oh, and firing Casey, but that should be a given.
