The Milwaukee Bucks are still stuck in a search for their next head coach, and it's time to discuss whether general manager John Hammond is simply too nice to get out ahead of the pack.

Coming off the first playoff appearance in three seasons, the time is now for the Milwaukee Bucks to make a statement, to shake things up, and to take a huge step forward in community relations and increased relevance in the NBA.

Let's see what the Milwaukee Bucks general manager has on his agenda before the team returns for training camp in October.

The Milwaukee Bucks center had not played a minute since April 3 against Minnesota and had been on the bench for the previous 10 games, including the first two games of the Eastern Conference playoffs against the Miami Heat.

Chris Andersen scored eight points off the Miami bench in the fourth quarter to keep Milwaukee at bay and boost the Heat to a 98-86 victory in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference playoff series on Tuesday night in AmericanAirlines Arena.
