He's more a straight backup 4/5. I want another Lou, a Q Acy, a Reggie Evans that can change the momentum and energy as soon as they come in.

A bigger Tucker that doesn't try to dribble.

A star? Really?

You're wasting your breath. I'm just numb to it now. Let's just talk about how awesome his contract is.

I wasn't saying that in ridicule. I just thought that was a strong, bold claim. I'm not saying you're wrong. I was just surprised.

Why do you think he'll be a star?

He's young, he's a hard worker, he has a great job shot, he's a smart kid, he has great handles, he's in a better free flowing offense now. I may be wrong but he kinda reminds me of Jrue Holiday a little.

I've seen a lot of Jrue this year. He's better than Jrue already imho.

Jrue's normally sitting on the sidelines in a suit isn't he?

All I'm saying is I have a good feeling about the kid. I look forward to seeing how the chemistry between him and Bledsoe develops.

The handles part is probably not 100% accurate. He also lack in the bball IQ department.

I'm not sure what makes you say that he has a low basketball IQ. He's played only one game for us and seemed fairly savvy on the court for the most part.

That's the impression I got from the Bucks games I've watched since last season to see the Freak.

it's funny, but ppl claim mcdo got a steal with bledsoe (via dudley), but the simpler explanation is that the clippers just wont overpay for ebled (suns did). now milwaukee is doing the same thing, and the suns stupidly gave up the lakers pick for him. how lucky is milwaukee?

Because he's not Jason Kidd's style of PG. Look who they traded for...two pass first PGs that can't shoot. And oh yea, the Bucks have been spot on with their decision making in recent years.

Knight is way more talented than MCW. Milwaukee is only lucky if Ennis pans out. And Philly? They traded the former 10th pick for a do over that might be a worse pick in a worse draft. I don't see it as a big steal on their part.

Also saying Knight isn't worth keeping because Milwaukee doesn't want him is some of the most faulty logic I've seen on this board.
