Maybe Not The Best Time To Dap Up Your Friend, J.R. Smith
Jason Terry is a nice guy and a great shooter. Who isn’t amused by his insane sock habits and propensity for bold tattoos? I’d love to chat with him. But the worst possible time for that chat would be right in the middle of a professional basketball game in which I was responsible for playing defens...

That's Not Even Close To How You Pronounce Giannis Antetokounmpo's Name
Look, “Antetokounmpo” has a lot of letters in it. A-N-T-E-T-O-K-O-U-N-M-P-O. Not the easiest name to pronounce! That, however, is nowhere close to whatever Stacey King said here....

Giannis Antetokounmpo Is Not So Great At Jokes
Giannis Antetokounmpo is a 21-year-old who just signed a $100 million contract, so you can imagine why he might have been feeling a little giddy heading into NBA media day.

Bucks President: "Milwaukee Is The Most Segregated, Racist Place I’ve Ever Experienced"<em></em>
Milwaukee is the most segregated city in the country.

Point Giannis To Wreck Shit On A Permanent Basis
Good news for all the Giannis Antetokounmpo fans out there, particularly those of us who have enjoyed the results of Jason Kidd’s “Fuck it, let’s put the 6-foot-11 monster at point guard” experiment. According to Kidd, Antetokounmpo will be the team’s starting point guard next season....


Giannis Antetokounmpo Is A Point Guard Now, And It's Awesome
There’s a fun thing going on with the Milwaukee Bucks, a team that was supposed to be a spunky upstart but has unfortunately been a big-ass bummer. All those losses have put head coach Jason Kidd in a situation where he can tinker and experiment with the team, and he’s taken advantage of that by put...

Giannis Antetokounmpo Just Put Serge Ibaka On A Poster

Keeping Up With The Antetokounmpos
Last night, Giannis Antetokounmpo’s older brother Thanasis made his debut for the New York Knicks. He scored on his only shot, as the Knicks blew out the Suns at home.

The Bucks Are A Big Fuckin' Bummer
In our NBA season preview post, published, uh, a couple hours after the NBA season began back in October, I wrote the following about the Milwaukee Bucks:...

Zach LaVine Got Some Early Dunk Contest Practice In Against The Bucks

Jabari Parker And An Amazon River Turtle Are Best Friends
It’s been a rough adjustment for the Milwaukee Bucks’ Jabari Parker. Last year’s #2 pick tore his ACL early in his rookie season, and he’s still working on finding his stride. Every young player needs some time to get used to NBA life, and OnMilwaukee.com caught up with him and found out that a near...

No One Wants Publicly-Financed Stadiums—Except The People Who Count
The Milwaukee Bucks have—obvious exception aside—been a depressing team to watch this season. The defense that made them one of the surprise teams of 2014-15 has completely disappeared. The gamble on Michael Carter-Williams as the point guard of the future has been a disaster, as Carter-Williams has...

Jason Kidd Has A Little Talk With The Bucks About Appropriate Strip Club Attendance
On Tuesday night, the Bucks got rolled by the Lakers—no small feat, considering just how uninterested the Lakers are in winning this year, even if they were capable. But L.A. has not surrendered its most potent home-court advantage: its strip clubs. ...

How The Warriors Streak Ended
24 wins in a row is as impressive of a streak as you’ll ever see to start an NBA season, but the Warriors were close to a different, sneakily difficult record last night. Had they beaten the Milwaukee Bucks, they would have secured the first 7-0 road trip in history. That stat doesn’t leap off the p...
