Gilbert's Blog <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Richard Jefferson going to Milwaukee …. HAHAHA! Oh man, now that is funny. When I heard that, I started laughing. Oh man, did I start laughing. You know why? Because every player hates Milwaukee. Nobody wants to live in Milwaukee. I’m sorry, Milwaukee, to come down hard on you, but no one in the NBA wants to play in Milwaukee. From him going from New Jersey, actually from New York (because he lives in New York), from New York to Milwaukee is like going … let’s just say it’s not going to sit well with you. That was a funny one when I heard that one. I know Yi is happy though.</div> Im sure Gilbert endeared himself to fans from Milwaukee

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (jtballa2o1 @ Jul 15 2008, 08:39 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>wow, what a dick.</div> The guy's just being honest. It's like that episode of Mike Beasley's pre-draft show, where he gets a call from his Kansas State teammate who's from Minnesota. Beasley basically says the same thing without being as direct as Gil, railing on how cold it is, etc. Can you blame these guys though? Who would want to play for a team like Minnesota or Milwaukee, two cold, uninteresting, mid-sized cities in mid-America with teams that aren't winning a title any time in the next ten years. I would say that Memphis would be worse, but at least Memphis has warm weather year round. EDIT: Just thought of one more - Utah. Gotta be a player's worst nightmare to play for the Jazz.
Huh? In Milwaukee, you get the smell of the air from the lake, sometimes yeast from the Brewery. Or the pleasant sight of an unending supply of bums. God damn Rescue Mission.....

I guess Jefferson can never really win, though. He moves from a place where fans don't to want to come to a place where players don't want to come.
