Preview - Milwaukee Bucks

The Bucks may have had their best chance to win the Eastern Conference championship last year.
Milwaukee Bucks

2000 Record: (52-30), Central Division Champions

Player Losses: Lindsey Hunter.

Player Additions: Greg Foster, Andre Hutson.

Projected Starting Five:

Center - Scott Williams (6'10" 255 lbs.)
Forward - Tim Thomas (6'10" 230 lbs.)
Forward - Glenn Robinson (6'7" 230 lbs.)
Guard - Ray Allen (6'5" 205 lbs.)
Guard - Sam Cassell (6'3" 185 lbs.)

The Bucks have signed power forward Anthony Mason to their roster, but they have had trouble working out a deal. Milwaukee needs to get more playing time to Tim Thomas, who is productive at both ends of the court. Ray Allen, Sam Cassell, and Glenn Robinson will need to repeat last year's performance. The Bucks will have a hard time getting back to the Eastern Conference Championship, since teams like Toronto and Orlando have greatly improved.
