Early indications are Bucks only have to renounce Joel Przybilla to have room for Jeff Teague offer sheet we reported this AM was en route

Vet min!



This really interests me, not for playing, but for tutoring Meyers and Lopez
 
hell, pay him 100k for a week of showing guys 6'6" and taller how to set a pick.
 
I would love Stotts to offer him an assistant coaching gig.
 
He can also show ML how to hold his ground. How to block shots without jumping, and how eat glass and rusty nails.
 
I am all for bringing Joel back. Too many nice guys on our roster. He may not have much skill left but he certainly has not lost any of his red-ass-ness.

Would also get to bring my Joel jersey out of retirement for the second time.

I could just see him now pulling Leonard aside "don't you fucking let that chump push you around! Don't act like a pussy!"
 
He will need to do that with of our interior defenders.

Aldridge included. I remembered the time when Aldridge was about to help the other team up. Pryzbilla grabbed him and said "you don't fucking help them up! They are the enemy!"
 
I still, for the life of me, cannot understand how someone can post the following averages -

4.8 ppg ... 8.4 rpg
5.5 ppg ... 8.7 rpg
4.1 ppg ... 7.9 rpg

Shouldn't those numbers be inverted? I mean, I've been watching ball well before Przybilla was drafted, but how can you average 4.8 ppg and 8.4 rpg, at 7'1"? Did he have two left hands or something?
 
he was actually a pretty good P&R player, but we did a lot of Roy Iso's then, or LMA P&pops.

Sergio looked for him.

He was basically a putback player who spent all of his energy on D. At one point, he was over 70% FG% at the All-Star break. He tapered off, I think, but he was cruising for the highest FG% in a very long time for more than half the season.

If he and Roy were motivated, they'd work the first couple of years like Hersey Hawkins. No title and little pay.

His "Power" Forward was Aldridge. Every Center (Przybilla, Oden, Camby, and Hickson) who has played with Aldridge set his career per-minute rebound record then. (Yes, I looked it up. 17 years for Camby.) None wanted to leave little old Portland. I wonder why.
 
I'd be shocked if Pryz has any interest in coaching. I'll bet he'd rather relax, spend time with family, and drink Coors Light.

I'm talking Przybilla, not roy. And why would I care what title Joel received? And PA and Joel are the only ones to which the money should matter. Call him th new King Tut and Pay him in body weight of gold, just so long as he teaches defense.

Oden only played with him. Camby wanted out.
 
Joel's playing career should have ended when he tore his patella tendon a few years ago, he never regained his form as a good backup. Thinking back to the year we first acquired him and he played so successfully with Damon was a pretty exciting time.

What experience does Pryz have to be a successful NBA coach? Not that I'm against the idea but I've never heard anything that leads me to believe he has any coaching aptitude.

I think he'd make a good assistant coach with a focus on defense; with the young guys out there in the early Roy years, he was the the floor general on the defensive end. he told people where to go, how to rotate, and called all the defensive huddles during stoppages of play.

I think he would be useful, but were we really a good defensive team then? I don't know if he's to blame though, just curious.

Joel is from Minnesota. To paraphrase Dennis Hopper, "Coors Light? Fuck that shit! Pabst Blue Ribbon!"

One of my favorite Joel photos:

Joel can't really teach that much, except how to keep your body upright and block without fouling. But, his intensity would do Leonard a lot of good.

And I would pay money to see Joel get Leonard in the boxing ring.
 
I agree, but Joel has an extra gear the Leonard doesn't yet have.

Also, recall that Joel used to do MMA training. He would knock MyLe out.

loved his first game back in 2012 when he got right in the opponent's face to protect a teammate. Joel ain't taking shit from anyone!
 
Fuck'n A Right! I'd take Joel back in a heartbeat as a coach or as a player. Either way he'd sit behind the bench in a suit...
