	I've never particularly been a big Skiles fan but I don't really have a good reason why so I guess I'll go into this with an open mind. If he can get this team to play a liitle defense and improve the chemistry that should translate into more wins. I'm just thankful Larry K is gone.

	Skiles is easily a vast improvement over coach k. however, with larry brown on the table, I am upset we at least didnt get to interview. milwaukee settles with mediocrity too much. By mediocrity, I am comparing Skiles to Brown...not necessarily calling him mediocre. I am happy we have a defense 1st coach finally. Anyways, its a good day for the Bucks, but it could have been better. Time to let go redd, charlie v, simmons, and bell.

	I am excited that we have a NBA caliber Head Coach for the first time since George Karl. Skiles is going to be a tough SOB and get this team to play hard and play so defense. I could be wrong but I really don't think Larry Brown would have come here.

	I like it as well. Anything was better then before. Maybe this year Skiles can come up with some good defensive schemes to suit the players. I think we have the talent. Just has to be molded into a team that plays both sides of the ball. It can only be an improvement.

	Discipline is something the Bucks need. Isn't this the first experienced coach we've had since Karl? I'm optimistic.

	Its a good hire. Skiles preaches Defense which we lack. He will shape this players up. Should be interesting to eee how he handles this team. I wouldn't be suprised that this team is broken up by 2010.

	Now it looks like Kelvin Sampson is going to be an assistant. He may the the ying to Skiles yang. A players coach to a hard-nosed coach. sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story

	i like this move,he will make the players responsible.he is a hard nosed coach who will expect,no demand the same from his players.this will be good for the team,though some players may have to go.
