<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">This has been one crazy offseason for the Milwaukee Bucks. Just how crazy became obvious Wednesday when general manager Larry Harris fired Terry Porter only six weeks after he put his arm around the second-year coach at a news conference and assured everyone they were joined at the hip for at least another year. But wait, it could get even crazier for Sen. Herb Kohl's NBA team. How crazy, you ask? Crazy enough Kohl might actually start spending money on his team again. Whether Kohl ordered it or merely signed off on it, the firing of the popular Porter backed him into a corner. The only way out of that corner is for Kohl to open his wallet. By removing a coach who is beloved in Wisconsin and largely has escaped the public's ire over last season's 30-win debacle, Kohl has challenged both himself and Harris. To make Porter's dismissal palatable to the fans, they must find a coach better than the one they had.</div> Source
