<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Coveted free agent Michael Redd agreed Thursday to re-sign with the Milwaukee Bucks, choosing to stay with the only NBA team he's played for over LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers. "He's going to get a max deal in Milwaukee for $90 to $96 million, depending on what the cap is, over six years," Redd's agent, Kevin Poston, told The Associated Press early Thursday afternoon. "Michael started his career in Milwaukee and hopes to end it there, too. "It was a tough decision between the Bucks and the Cavaliers, but Michael's heart is in Milwaukee and he's excited about his future there," Poston added. Redd, who was the top remaining free agent available, met with James and Cavs officials in Cleveland on Wednesday, one day after meeting with the Bucks. The 6-foot-6 shooting guard averaged a career-high 23 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.3 assists last season. He has averaged 17.7 points while making 39.4 percent of his 3-point shots since Milwaukee drafted him in second round, with the 43rd overall pick, in the 2000 NBA draft.</div> Source
Alot of people including myself thought we were gonna see Redd in red but it"s good for bucks fans to see him back
see this is the prime reason why free agency in the nba sux. a small market team like the bucks has to pay out of the ying yang to keep one their players from going to another team. redd gets a max deal? come on you cant be serious. redd stayed with the bucks for the money nothing else. i dont want to hear anything about loyaltly or anything close. he will keep the 96 mil and thats it. yes redd avg 23 points last year but is he really a superstar. he is getting paid more than ray allen? please. superstars such as kg, tim d, Ai, Tracy, Shaq and Kobe deserve this type money not redd. where are the bucks going to be in 6 years esp. with a coach like terry stotts? they maybe in the playoffs but nothing more. they maybe handicapped to sign another star player. redd doesnt want to win. if redd really wanted to win he should have went to the cavs and played with a bonafide superstar in lebron and avg over 25 pts 5 rebs and 3 assts just being there. lebron would have set everything up for him. or he could have accepted less money so they could sign a prized free agent in the coming years. imo the bucks will regret this move. THANK YOU FOR LISTENING TO MY ADONAL FOYLE, BRIAN CARDINAL RANT FOR THE 2005-2006 SEASON.
