28/10 - Bucks get Brandon Jennings and Louis Williams from 76ers for Dan Gadzuric

76ers send Rookie Jennings to Milwaukee for Gadzuric



Bill Simmons / Milwaukee for ESPN
The Milwaukee Bucks have made a seemingly terrific trade this week, sneaking in just before opening night to nab rookie point guard Brandon Jennings and Sharpshooting Louis Williams for out of favor center Dan Gadzuric in a trade with the Philadelphia 76ers. Gadzuric was unhappy with his lack of minutes in the pre-season, and especially after comments by Bucks coach Scott Skiles in which he said that "(Andrew) Bogut, (Francisco) Elson and (Amir) Johnson are all gonna get minutes ahead of (Gadzuric)". The trade fixes the lack of depth in Milwaukee at both guard positions, and pairs Jennings with fellow rookie and Buck DeMar Derozan, who could one day combine to make an all-star duo in Milwaukee. "It's awesome to be here with DeMar and the whole team", Jennings said to reporters. Williams is also a great add to the Bucks depth chart, with his "sharpshooting and ability to play both guard positions" according to Skiles.

Good luck man.

[Martti.]

Start Jennings.

[chaodck]

Wow!! That's one loopsided trade man!!! Good luck!!

[Manimalia]

Good luck man.

Thanks, i'm gonna need it to make the playoffs, especially since I haven't played Live since 2K11 came out basically.

Start Jennings.

It's so tempting, but I think I'll give Rindnour the start, but play BJ heavy miuntes of the bench until he proves he deserves the start.

Wow!! That's one loopsided trade man!!! Good luck!!

No kidding! I just wanted to get rid of Gadzuric, and I looked at the offers, and there it was. Too easy.

Another Live dynasty We almost have as many here as active 2K12 associations. Will you be running this and your Lin MyPlayer at the same time or just this?

12 min sim and 10 played should match up well from my experience.

I'll be doing Lin too. It's good to have a choice of what I want to write about.

PS: This might be a stupid question. If I want to have box scores, is there a quicker way than writing it up myself on operationsports.com? Can you export it from the game somehow?

I'm almost 100% positive you can't; that's only in the newer 2K games that you can do that.

[cavs4872]

Big surprise to see Iguodala up there, but he's one of my favorite players so I have no problem with it. All the previous games wanted to make him out as a big-time scorer even though he's never averaged more than 20 PPG in his career. He's averaging like half the PPG he has in your dynasty irl right now lol... Are you playing all of these or simming some?
