Agree regarding Hibbert. He seems better suited for a slow tempo, half-court offense. Jason Kidd wants to get out and run with MCW, Middleton, Giannis and Jabari. Despite his terrible free throw shooting, DeAndre Jordan is the defensive presence and type of center that can get up and down the court. Brook Lopez and Marc Gasol would also be better options over Hibbert.
Lopez is the one guy who has been coached by Kidd. I guess Kidd would know if he likes Lopez for what he wants to do / and Lopez would have some idea if he would like to play for Kidd. That is why I think he will be an interesting one to watch if the Bucks are interested. Seems players on the current team liked playing for this coaching staff, and if so that may help recruit a player like Lopez to Milw.
Marc Stein agrees, says Bucks will target Brook Lopez. Tyson Chandler another possibility.

Wasn't there a rumor at some point that the Bucks may trade Henson to Sacramento for the #7 pick?

I only saw it on another message board. I have not seen it reported anywhere else. Trades regarding draft picks are always contingent on the targeted player being available at the pick. That can't be known until the draft unfolds. Teams seem to wait until draft day or a few days before, otherwise another team may try to move one slot ahead of you if they want the same player. There is an advantage to not making anything official until draft night.Originally Posted by MKE_GoldenEagleFan
Bucks reportedly to meet with DeAndre Jordan:

Greg Monroe has Bucks as 1 of 5 teams he will meet with:
It was not lost on him that he may be an unrestricted free agent a year too soon. The NBA’s new nine-year, $24 billion television contract kicks in before the 2016-17 season. That will affect the type of contract Monroe signs, he said.
“(He and agent David Falk) are definitely looking at all our options,” he said. “You can see the trend is everybody’s taking shorter deals right now. So, most likely, I might take that route, too, and when the new deal kicks in, get a longer-term contract.
“I’m looking at a two-year deal plus an option” to become a free agent.

Here is an article on free agents that says where they should sign, and where they will sign.
http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nba-ba...040238775.html
Danny Green is referenced as should sign in San Antonio, but will probably sign with Milwaukee.
Hadn't thought about Green.
Sounds like at least one of the ESPN guys think Chandler may end up in Milwaukee.
The more I think about it, the more I like Chandler.
Milwaukee Bucks
ESPN's Chris Broussard reports that Tyson Chandler may end up playing for his old teammate Jason Kidd in Milwaukee.
Broussard is also reporting that the Bucks could be interested in Iman Shumpert
I liked Danny Green as well, he has resigned with San Antonio. I think Bucks plan off attack is becoming clearer (1) resign Middleton and (2) go after Greg Monroe.
