The Bucks had a bad week. They lost all their games and did not really look good in any of the three. There were some positive signs in all of the losing.

Rashad Vaughn averaged one made three-pointer per game which is an encouraging sign. Miles Plumlee had some fun moments including some big blocks and nice dunks. Chris Copeland got onto the court.

Okay so maybe I’m reaching for positive signs. The real positive from this week might be the Bucks inching closer to a top 5 draft pick. If the Bucks can add one more dynamic young player to this roster it could be just enough for them to make some genuine improvements next season while at the same time being a true boon for the future.

With the trade deadline approaching we may see this Bucks team shaken up. It appears that everyone besides Jabari Parker, Khris Middleton, and Giannis Antetokounmpo is available. I really hope Milwaukee does not trade Michael Carter-Williams or Greg Monroe. I want to see what those five guys can do together next season.
