    At the time of the TMac trade, there was a huge discussion over whether Gaines was capable of playing in the NBA. I sided the wishy-washy "wait and see but hold out hope" camp. I guess we can now say the issue has been settled.

    Gaines will become a huge star for the Bucks and single handedly defeat the Rockets every time we play them. ;)

    Welcome Mr. James!

    I think even Rod will understand being waived. It was painful watching him last night.

    Doesn't Rod still get a ring this year when we dethrone Detriot? Not a bad reward for a few weeks of work.

    I'm glad we got rid of him but I bear no ill will against the guy. I mean it is not like he held a gun to JVG's head and forced coach to play him. Rockets signed Strickland knowing full well he was not in shape. He gave it a good try and I wish him well. :)

    Did we even sign Rod Strickland? I thought we screwed up and signed his brother Todd who got cut from his high school squad.
