Tweets about the draft!


Miguel Garcia - Bucks

Treyon2k: Horrible pick by Milwaukee! Miguel Garcia has bust written all over his face. I bet he has it tattooed on his lower back!

FutBolLegend21: Great pick up by the Bucks today! This Miguel Garcia kid from Mexico will be a stud! #HOF #DYNASTY

TheChamp23: I'm done. I'm just done. I'm turning the draft off right now. I know Garcia can play, but he isn't worth the 1st pick. The Bucks just blew this!

Steve Kyler: I really like the Bucks picking Miguel Garcia #1 overall. He's going to be solid in this league.
