    We use the MLE for Sessions, then the Australian Guy's Exception for Andersen!

    Of course, a lot of people don't know about the AGE...

    Then why would it be able to happen in December all of a sudden? If he signs now there is no way of doing a SnT anymore.

    But if you're saying we'll get him before All Star break or at with a straight up trade, I seriously doubt the Bucks will let him go after already signing him in the OS.

    I just don't understand why they pick up Brandon Jennings. Unless he's just another asset or a Plan B of some sort.

    Think about this guys, supposedly we have an offer sheet on the table for Chris Wilcox who would back up Andersen. Joey Dorsey has been a monster on the boards in summer league, better than Dejaun Blair. Bucks lost C. Vill, could really use a good, young scoring PF like...perhaps Carl Landry, who would be expendable with Wilcox coming in and Dorsey improving. Add Aaron Brooks to the equation and I think you've got a deal with the Bucks. They get two young rising stars for one. Both teams would be better from this trade

    Bucks aren't going to take Lowry and others, my guess is it would be AB and others (most likely Landry) for Sessions.

    Maybe Milwaukee will look at Landry as a way to fill some seats and trade us Sessions for Landry and Cook. We'd lose even more depth in the frontcourt though and take away a valuable trade asset.

    I have 2 words for you Brandon Jennings This guys is putting up insane numbers in SL for the Bucks....


    13 points

    14 assist

    7 steals :eek:


    This guys is in Bucks present and future.

    So I don't think Bucks would have a problem giving him up Ramon Sessions in a S&T. :cool:

    I dont care if the deal begins with lowry + picks, cook etc

    or landry +picks, cook etc.

    or battier + whatever.......

    i am goood with whatever it will take and trust me we have enough assets to get this one done thats for sure.....they'll take something off our roster.....they need cap relief in the worse way so that would be a start.....plus if I am not mistaken we still have a lle exception laying around somewhere(could be wrong on this one)

    im pretty sure that he is a restricted free agent.

    the bucks would match almost any offer for him.

    We've gotten over that, what our proposition now is to complete a Sign & Trade for him.

    I agree with jshabang, we have all the assets needed to get Sessions. He'd be a great fit in our Motion Offense.

    Jennings was the 2nd best player in the draft.
