Drew Gooden Wants to Play in Milwaukee

The Bucks won’t have to do too much wooing to obtain Gooden’s services this summer. All they have to do is read his comments to the Journal Times: “Tuesday night, before the Clippers played the Bucks at the Bradley Center in Milwaukee, Gooden spoke about his future and made it abundantly clear he wouldn’t mind the Bucks being a part of it. ‘No question at all,’ Gooden said. ‘I’d definitely have interest in coming here. They’re an up-and-coming team. They’re a team that has shown great improvement over the last year.’ Gooden, who is averaging 10.6 points and 7.8 rebounds a game this season, said he’s had a good rapport with Bucks coach Scott Skiles, dating to several years ago when the latter was coaching the Chicago Bulls. Gooden also believes he would fit in nicely with two of the Bucks’ main players. ‘Andrew Bogut has become a really good center; he’s legitimate,’ Gooden said. ‘And Brandon Jennings is on his way to becoming a great point guard. The potential of that team is very high. If the stars and moon line up right, I might be a Milwaukee Buck this summer.’’’

    His goal clearly is to play in all 30 NBA teams throughout his career.

    To bad he isn’t. LeBron James talking about New York…..(shrugs shoulders)

    Is he just a total d-bag or something? He puts up good numbers wherever he plays but nobody ever wants the guy.

    @Brickshooting J, that quest is the only reason any of us really give a ish about Drew Gooden.

    Wayno, he’s just unbelievably inconsistent. He’ll go for 20 and 20 one night (no joke) and then go for 4 and 2 on 2-7 shooting in 25 minutes the next. There’s no rhyme or reason to it.

    lost in all the trade nonsense is the 10 and 8. he’d be welcomed by a lot of places with numbers like that.

    Gooden also said he’d love to go back to the Mavs, and that he’s open to re-signing with the Clippers, and that he’d like to play for the Blazers. Dude really does want to break the Jimmy Jackson U-Haul record.

    The Bucks are just this year’s hot topic. The Hornets were an up-and-coming team in 07-08. Even the Bulls or Sixers last year were given that designation. No playoffs for any of those teams this year.
