     Who should the Bucks pick with the #12th pick ? Definetly not a Point guard or a two , preferably a big who has some skills buy plays defense too. This year they were very good on offense and bad on defense, the year before that they were brilliant on defense and sucked on offense. I think they should draft a big that can do well both. Do you guys have a guy in mind ? I don’t follow college basketball (Living in europe you have to pay ALOT)  so i would really like to know who you think would be the best fit for the Bucks.

    I like Leuer i think he has a lot of potential in him but i don’t know how much he can develop under Scott Skiles, tbh i think they need a coaching change but apparantly the Bucks are very confident in him

    ^^^ IMO, between him and Ty Zeller. Ty provides a more immediate contribution at a position in NEED (well C and SF anyway), though lacks the tremendous upside of Meyers. Just to go off tangent, if the Bucks do indeed go big with their pick, what’ll they do with young bigs Ekpe and Larry (and Leuer)?

    I agree with D-Rav, it’s gotta be either Zeller or Leonard. I think Leonard would be the first choice as I see him having more success in the league than Zeller. Zeller wouldn’t be a terrible pick by any stretch, but Leonard is a true center. I project Zeller as more of a combo PF/C supplying good play off the bench, and since the Bucks already have a logjam at PF, I think Leonard would be the better choice.

    I like Zeller.  He is solid and get the job done.  The have enough athletes with Udoh and Sanders in the front court

    Zeller runs the floor well and that fits in with what Ellis and Jennings want to do which is obviously push the ball. He isn’t a great defender but he will grab rebounds with good positioning and effort. If PJ3 were available at the 12 spot I would take him over anyone else though.

     He maybe thin, but I think he fits great with their back court. Not many bigs can keep up with Curry and Ellis. Henson can block shots, he’s a wirey dunker, runs the floor very very  well and if they can resign Ilyasova, who came strong at the end of last year he could be a good rotation player with Gooden in there too. If Henson is still on the board don’t be shocked if they take him… depends the view of the mock draft is though I guess and the philosophy of the Bucks approach… Meyers and Tyler and even a reach of Festus or Fab are guys to consider if you want the C label attached for sure if Ilyasova is uncertain or not desired. Henson would be perfect for a fast paced offense and trasition defense if he’s still around.

    Terrence Ross! would be good value pick at that spot, with no depth at that position and with undersized player starting, they could use clasic, quality two guard, someone with size on the roster, he also could be an answer for the future if the insane experiment of Brandon Jennings/Monta Ellis backcourt doesn’t work.

     I think Meyers.  He is a great passer for a big and has some nice skills to go with his athleticism.  People don’t talk about bigs with passing ability but with 2 guards who are capable of 30 on any night, it is good to have passers at all positions. 

    Also, he will have no problem keeping up with those runners on the Bucks roster.  He doesn’t have to beat the guards down the floor, only his man.

     Sullinger is the most developed and ready post player in the draft, he’ll be good for years to come, Milwaukee isn’t good enough to worry about a player that fits, they need to get the best player

    Meyers Leonard is a good prospect.  I think if he’s developed properly, he could be on the same level as Andrew Bogut.  He’s just talent and he got great size and good atheletism.  Also I was impressed by his passing ability as a big man while watching some of his highlights.
