Bucks Nation seems to be enjoying its Fourth of July holiday so far, following word that the team traded TJ Ford to Toronto for Charlie Villanueva. Cheesehead Craig at Oracle of Cheese hilariously likens the deal to getting a 20oz. T-Bone and $10 for a double cheeseburger, while Bucks Dairy offers Raptors fans a rather […]

Unveiled tonight at the start of the NBA Draft, here is the new Milwaukee Bucks logo. As predicted by many, the team is going back to the green and red “Christmas” scheme of the late 1960s, though a statement released by management says that the new red is “more sophisticated” than the one first used […]

The Milwaukee Bucks announced this week that they will be sporting a new logo, new colors, and new uniforms for the 2006 season. (Brett at BucksTown posted on rumors about a new uniform back in March. Nice work.) The team is keeping everything under wraps until the draft when the logo and color scheme are […]

The Bradley Center can work a little magic, but it can’t perform miracles. Milwaukee fell to the Pistons last night 109-99 and now face elimination trailing the Pistons 3-1 in the series. Of course, it’s hard to win games when your bench only scores 29 points and your point guard turns the ball over six […]

I was both shocked and awed last night flipping channels on the cable to see that the Milwaukee Bucks were leading the Pistons, and I was doubly surprised to find out this morning that they actually hung on to that lead to win their first game of the playoff series. Of course, they had to […]

As with everything else, the Winter Olympics kept me distracted from how the Bucks are doing (well, the All-Star break also helped), but I guess I can’t ignore them any longer now that they’ve lost four of their last six since the break and are now at the .500 mark. Milwaukee dropped a 123-110 decision […]

The up and down Bucks were back down last night in Indianapolis, losing to the Pacers 88-77. Milwaukee kept it close in the first half but started losing ground after halftime while shooting a miserable 37% from the field. Michael Redd scored 24 points in Milwaukee’s losing effort, while Bobby Simmons added 19 and Jamaal […]

Milwaukee won its second straight game last night, extending their home winning streak to five in a row with a 99-93 victory over the Charlotte Bobcats. Michael Redd scored 18 points to lead the team, while TJ Ford and Jamaal Magloire added 16 and 15, respectively. Andrew Bogut also had a decent game, scoring 12 […]

I see Milwaukee managed to get back into the win column the other night with a 94-89 victory over the Magic in double overtime. Michael Redd came through with the go-ahead three-pointer after shooting 0-3 in the first overtime. He led the team with 27 points despite a 10-30 effort from the field. Gadzuric scored […]

Milwaukee had a chance to escape from Cleveland with a win tonight, but LeBron James spoiled the fun with a go-ahead layup in the final seconds to give the Cavs an 89-86 victory. Cold shooting was the undoing of the Bucks once again, especially Michael Redd who scored just 18 after missing 10 of his […]
