Fear The Deer is Back!

Fear The Deer!

Behind the Backcourt Tandem of Jennings and Ellis, the Milwaukee Bucks have successfully revitalized the Fear The Deer campaign.

Excitement is stirring among Bucks fans this season.

It's a good time to be a Buck's fan as the upstart squad led by the dynamic duo of Jennings and Ellis currently sit at 6 wins 3 losses. That's good for first in the Central Division. But not all of the credit deserves to go to the star studded backcourt. One reason for the Buck's success is the unexpected emergence of Larry Sanders who leads the team in blocks (2.2) and rebounds (7.7). Another reason for the teams success is the depth of this team. Despite the teams two best players being guards, the teams depth is at its greatest at its frontcourt positions. 
The Buck's frontcourt boasts a great mix of talents ranging from the young and talented Tobias Harris and John Henson, to veterans such as Gooden and Dalembert, as well as a few breakout players(Illyasova during the past year and Sanders during this season). And lets not forget Luc Richard Mbah a Moute who has yet to get into the mix with his defensive prowess. It also doesn't hurt to have a top 5 offense as well as leading the league in assists. While the Milwaukee Bucks aren't championship material, right now is as fun a time as ever to be a part of the Fear The Deer campaign. Because rest assured, the Bucks are sure to give a team or two quite the scare come playoff time if they keep playing like they are now.

Guards Brandon Jennings and Monta Ellis have been the key cogs for the Milwaukee Bucks this season.

The Resurrection of Mike D'Antoni

You've Gotta Love the NBA Right?

After being kicked to the curb as a result of what would become Lebron's Decision, Mike Brown ended up rising from the ashes of the Lebron James turmoil, and found himself coaching the Los Angeles Lakers just one year later. Now that he has been fired, fast forward to Mike D'Antoni on November 12th 2012.

In an extremely similar manner to Mike Brown, Mike D'Antoni found himself becoming the victim to the threat of a star player's happiness, and ended up finding himself fired in a turmoil ridden 2011-2012 season for the New York Knicks. And yet just like Mike Brown, D'Antoni rose from the ashes and has found himself with a golden opportunity to coach a star studded Lakers team filled with 4 future hall of fame bound players.

So in a tale of two Mike's, both essentially found themselves becoming the victim to a star player(Lebron potentially leaving Cleveland, and Melo's reported conflict with D'Antoni). Yet they both in a very similar fashion, ended up landing a coaching gig with the Los Angeles Lakers.

The NBA. Where Two Guys Named Mike Following Extremely Similar Coaching Routes Happens.

Yes. I had to do something as stupid as that.
