Guys I am a little under the weather but I wanted to something where you can chat during and after the game.
Luckily for the Sixers the Phillies have an off day so there might actually be some supporters at the game and watching on TV – but not many. Right now the Sixers need to [...]

Brandon Jennings Has His Head On Straight
Last night Brandon Jennings went for 17, 9 and 9. More impressive than that is the way he’s handling his transition to the NBA. He lives in a condo less than a mile from the Bucks’ training center. He bought a Ford Edge instead of a sports car so he can save money. Instead of [...]
Charlie Bell, No. 42
Of the players on this season's roster, there are only two who have but on the court for more minutes under coach Scott Skiles than guard Charlie Bell.
Bell played a total of 1,783 minutes a year ago in Skiles' first season with the Bucks and only guard Luke Ridnour (2,033) and forward Luc Richard Mbah a Moute (2,114) played more. With seven new players joining the team this season...
Ersan Ilyasova, No. 7
Ersan Ilyasova could have stayed in Barcelona or gone to another European team during the summer. But he was ready for another shot with his first pro team, the Bucks.
Ilyasova remembered how the Bucks staff helped him recover from a serious foot injury after he was drafted in 2005. He met his wife, Julia, during his first two years in Milwaukee.
Even though the Bucks had a different...
Hakim Warrick, No. 21
Hakim Warrick could be an X factor for the Bucks this season, either off the bench or in the starting lineup.
Coach Scott Skiles has debated how to use him most effectively, but there's no doubt he likes the firepower and energy the former Syracuse star brings in a reserve role.
Warrick said he had a bit of an advantage in coming to the Bucks because he played last season in Memphis...
Andrew Bogut, No. 6
Don't expect to find Bogut on the bench when he's not playing in the game this season.
He might not be there.
In an effort to keep his back loose when he comes out of a game, the Bucks will have an area for Bogut behind the bench where he can stretch out and keep his back from tightening up.
Bucks still feeling their way offensively
Charlie Villaneuva, Richard Jefferson and Ramon Sessions combined to score 47.3% of the Bucks' points last season, and their departure left the Bucks with an obvious question: Do they have enough offensive firepower to make up for the loss of that scoring?
The past
The championship banners are impossible to miss by anyone visiting the Milwaukee Bucks' training center in St. Francis. The banners are a testament to a tradition of excellence that the franchise enjoyed in days past and represents a culture that the present brain trust of John Hammond and Scott Skiles is trying to rekindle today.

Doormats in the Central Division for quite some time, the Milwaukee Bucks will kick off their 2009-10 campaign Friday on the road against the Philadelphia 76ers in their home opener at the Wachovia Center.
Carlos Delfino, No. 10
Carlos Delfino is a prime example of basketball's reach around the globe.
He has played in Italy and Russia, in Detroit and Toronto. He is a teammate on the Argentine national team with Luis Scola, Manu Ginobili, Fabricio Oberto and Andres Nocioni, all established players in the NBA.
But he definitely is delighted to be in Milwaukee after spending last season with Khimki Moscow...
