Gary Neal anyone?


After Gary Neal verbally body slammed Larry Sanders the Bucks are dedicated to trading him before the deadline. I's sure they can get better offers, but I would LOVE to ship out J.J. Barea in exchange for Neal. This helps in two ways. First, Neal is a significantly better three point shooter. His career average from beyond the arc is .400 where Barea's is under 36%. Second, Neal won't dribble the ball for 20 seconds of the shot clock only to take a slightly contested three. With Barea gone we can let Shved handle the ball with the second unit. While Shved has proven to be a train wreck this year he's more effective with the ball in his hands. Don't get me wrong, I don't think Shved will will suddenly become a very productive player for us, but this move could help take him from horrible player to simply below average player.
