Selfish of me to just want to end the Kuzma experience early 😂 But you’re probably right—longer term more useful as expiring salary

Nance looked like an NBA player, per usual. Caris/Kuzma? Not so much

Some takeaways: -Holy offensive rebounds! Ware is very useful. Sims looked good -Herro and Burries struggling to bring the ball up is good for KPJ’s chances -Nice showings from the rooks overall -I’m good on the Kuz and Caris experience. Keep one for salary; cut the other -Nance is making this team

Everyone will play tonight. I'd assume. Does the new staff appreciate Ous's spring? Is Kasp a backup pg or offball? TJ emphasized pace and possessions to Jim, I'm skeptical this roster can crash. I'm skeptical of many on ball decision makers. I expect sloppy, but is it obvious who buys in?

I also just don’t want either of them taking minutes away, although is contract year Kuz on best behavior? We’ll see

Fresh start for the Bucks today. Very excited to see what a real coach is cooking up. To get from 17 to 15 I bet they cut LeVert and Markovic and resign Bogi on a two-way If both Kuz and LeVert make it, I think that’s a giveaway there’s a Herro extension incoming (need fungible contracts)

Thanks for covering this, Jim! Would totally go if I were in town. Not a lot of “who’s having a good camp?” convos yet and this seems like a place to start noticing things

The first time Bobby gets beat on defense and he slams the ball is going to hit like a muscle relaxant. Not a Bucks problem anymore

Three things I need separated: 1) how can the Kings “indicate” they’ll pay Duren (a free agent) max money next summer, and 2) Draymond in the year of our lord 2026 got a $27m one-year deal at the exact number PO he declined But the Bucks telling free agent GTJ they’ll pay him is circumvention?

It's a new chapter for the Bucks & make no mistake, Taylor Jenkins will be its author. The new head coach has leaned into the emotions of the fan base & has a unique on-court approach for this version of the team. "I gotta connect.” 🔖Here's how he's going to 👇 www.jsonline.com/story/sports...

Yes, and it’s on the actual jersey which feels different, and the list of causes Uihlein has backed is a timeline of American political decay in the last 25 years. Not just a “donates to candidates” guy
