As a Bulls fan I never liked his game when he was in Chicago, it seemed like he never came close to achieving the reputation he had coming out of Europe. In New Orleans it seemed like he was was enjoying a career renaissance but watching him as a Milwaukee Buck, this guy is severely flawed as a player. It appeared like the Bucks got a steal when they acquired this guy but his defense looks awful, his rebounding is extremely soft and when his shot isn't falling he's useless on offense. I don't don't know if this acquisition will pay dividends for Milwaukee, I don't like how Nikola has looked in a Bucks uniform.

Send him back to New Orleans then if he doesn't fit

He looks so damn mundane with the shaved face

He's still working his way back into shape from a calf issue and Bud has put in some pretty tough situations in lineups where he and Ersan are the only bigs on court. He's a quality player but he just needs a rim protector alongside him like Giannis or Lopez.

Thon Makers is just a shittier versio of Joe Smith. Both had solid rookie seasons, then just fell the **** off afterwards. Thon Maker is also basically just Stromile Swift with a three point shot. Mirotic's at least decent eough to crack the rotation.
