Chase to 50: Quick Thoughts
Some quick thoughts about the Bucks.
Rebounding, wow! I can't believe we're leading the league in rebounds. I mean yes, it shows during the games, but wow, this has helped us so much.
Shooting-wise we're going to need some overall work. Most of the problems come from the shot selection, we take a lot of tough shots. Free throws are going to need some major work. A few percent points better from each player would be a big difference. We've struggled at some clutch points this year, we need to fix this.
Hey, instead of doing this, let's just run down player by player.
Charlie Bell - Your defense has clearly improved since early in the season. I like the hustle I see. A strong offensive presence deep in the bench.
Andrew Bogut - You rock, keep doing what you do. The more time you get and the more you get the ball the more impressed I am. Everything they said about your great passing and ability to run the floor is absolutely true.
T.J. Ford - Awesome start, lackluster stretch which resulted in us going 2-7. Your play has a lot to do with the success of the team. As I watch this Dalls-Milwaukee game on TV right now, you're playing well. The more you hustle, the more we win.
Reece Gaines - You're not going to get to play much. There is a reason though, everytime you've played you seem to choke. I watched you play in high school and college, you're better than this. When you get a shot sometime this season, DO SOMETHING!
Dan Gadzuric - I like the turn-around jumper, but you need to be more cautious of when you use it. I think you killed us in the Detroit game, but that shot has helped us in other games. You need to play smart when you're in the game because once Joe is back we're not going to get to see a lot of you.
Ervin Johnson - You don't play, but you look smart helping the guys out during time-outs. I'm not sure what you're saying, but it seems to be working (refer to Andrew Bogut comments). Try talking to that Gadzuric guy about when to use his jumper.
Toni Kukoc - Great shot selection when you're in the game. Remember you and EJ are the veterans that need to provide leadership to the rest of the team. Any hustle you provide is a bonus.
Jamaal Magloire - Great defense, great rebounding, PUT THE BALL IN THE BASKET. Your inability to make your jump hook is causing me to go prematurely bald.
Michael Redd - Great job, you're been worth your money offensively. I could use more defensively, I understand that you typically guard the other teams best scorer, but give me some love. Try not to get beat to the basket as often, we would win quite a few more games with better perimeter defense. Do whatever you have to do to slow down the other teams two-guards. As I said before, great job offensively. Tell coach Stotts that you need more double-post screens called for you.
Bobby Simmons - You're awesome when you're on top of your game. You're almost invisible offensively at times though, where do you go? I understand that you've been in a slump, but looking at the Mavericks game tonight, you've busted out. Great job defensively, you've been the difference maker between so far down low adding that extra presence.
Joe Smith - Haven't got to see you play enough. GET HEALTHY. I liked what I saw, you're going to be a solid addition to the rotation.
Jiri Welsch - Awesome hustle. I didn't know you were a hustler before I saw you play, I love it! You've played pretty well when you have had the chance. Try and get better and cutting off dribble penetration.
Mo Williams - Strong offensive play, pretty good shot selection in the games I've watched. Like many of your teammates, I would like to see a better job of stopping the dribble penetration.
I'm not at all concerned by the 6 and 6 record. We've played quite a few tough teams so far. We're going to be able to convert some of those bad finishes to great ones later in the season when the team grows together more. The poor shooting can be fixed by better shot selection. Terry Stotts has done a fairly good job getting the right people on the floor at the right time, with so many new players he's learning where they fit as the season goes on.
