Having used their two draft selections on 19 year-olds with long developmental time horizons ahead of them, the Milwaukee Bucks are making a bet. They wager that they didn't need those draft slots to augment the actual playing rotation this season AND that they have the organizational chops to build these teenagers into real players without NBA minutes.
The first portion of the gamble can at least be made murky in the belief that few rookies ever impact title teams. It is the second portion that should have us all asking questions.
This is not to say that coach Doc Rivers hasn’t assembled a staff in Milwaukee (or eventually in Oshkosh) that can make that potential come good.
