[QUOTE="Voyageur, post: 1034850, member: 17953"] I see the Bucks ownership has given Horst another year to work on destruction of the franchise. I heard Lillard's "dedication to next year," knowing full well he's saying that after this coming year, he can give the Bucks the finger, and go anywhere he wants, because it's his choice. Rest assured, Giannis is going to ask to be traded after the coming season, and a lot of the surrounding players on the team today, that fans really want to see stay, are going to be gone, with what is going to be a desperate attempt for Horst to save face. Doc Rivers, on the other hand, is securing in knowing that he has 3 more years left on a guaranteed contract, and no matter how poorly the management is above him, he's going to be paid quite well. It's probably going to be his last job, as he'll go into retirement with more money than he'll ever be able to spend. So.... there it is..... the future of the Bucks, in my opinion. In fact, I doubt if the fans in Milwaukee will even have a team when the year 2031 rolls around. The lease between the Bucks and the community? The Bucks pay $1 mill a year plus an escalation clause of about 2% per year on the 30 year lease. If they decide to move, they can still pay the lease money and not play there, from what I understand, because the balance of revenue that the city/county/state would get is based on added value of tickets, sales tax, etc. None of it is guaranteed in any way nor form. I keep thinking about how Columbus, Ohio wants an NBA team, and so does several other areas with huge increases in population. Unless the Bucks turn this around, kiss them goodbye, just like they did the Braves. I hate thinking any of this, because I'm one of the original supporters, who spent the money for season tickets over those first few years while they struggled to make it into the black. I have a vested interest in their success, because I went from being a Minneapolis Lakers fan, who went over 100 miles by bus as a teenager to watch games in Minneapolis in the early 50s, and was disappointed, but still a Lakers fan when they went to LA. I even tried to become a Bulls fan, before the Bucks came into existence, by going to a Lakers/Bulls game in Milwaukee, and even though it was Bulls country, I still walked away a Lakers fan. But, when the Bucks came into existence, I had season tickets before their first game, and would do it again. I think what's happening is a travesty. But, that's just my opinion, even though everything that has happened is what I predicted. I just hope I'm wrong. [/QUOTE]
