MILWAUKEE (AP)—The Milwaukee Bucks have made qualifying offers to restricted free agent guard Ramon Sessions(notes) and forward Ersan Ilyasova(notes), but will not make an offer to forward Charlie Villanueva(notes)—allowing one of their top scorers from last season to become an unrestricted free agent.
Meanwhile, the team also is dealing with a potentially embarrassing YouTube moment from first-round draft pick Brandon Jennings(notes).
Bucks general manager John Hammond said Monday that the team already had sent offers to Sessions and Ilyasova, giving Milwaukee the right to match any contract offers from other teams. But with Tuesday’s deadline for teams to make offers to their restricted free agents looming, the team decided not to make an offer to Villanueva.
Anyone interested in him?? I think we could reasonably get him with the mid-level. Plus, he would make J-Ho expendable..Thoughts?

Are you interested in Tim Thomas or Channing Frye for your mid-level exception? He can score but is lacking everywhere else.

Tim Thomas is old. He’s not going to get the mid-level. And as for Frye, he has not proven anything since he left New York. I dont see him getting a mid-level from anyone either.

post that on Blazer’s edge and they’ll have a hissy fit.

I think Villanueva was playing better than usual last year, because it was a contract year.
I wouldn’t risk signing him. The Bucks signed Bobby Simmons after he won most improved player. How did that work out.
S-St. Louis, R-Rams, D-Dallas, M-Mavericks, A-Arizona, D-Diamondbacks.
I'd take him if it only took a Stack or Damp to get him
(and if it’s Damp, we acquire a center elsewhere)
