What makes Jon Horst still confident the Bucks can capture another championship? 'We still believe we have the best player in the world,' he tells eric_nehm . With Khris Middleton and Brook Lopez back in the fold, he believes they aren't far away.
for an exclusive interview to break down each move the Bucks have made up to this point, as well as the big picture questions that persist now that much of the roster has been assembled for the 2023-24 season.Let’s start at the top of the roster and break this offseason down move by move. Before free agency began, you talked about how much getting keepingmeant to you as an organization and you were able to get a deal done with him relatively quickly as free agency opened up.
I think it always plays a role in every one of these decisions. When they’re your own players, you know more than anyone else. It’s just the nature of our league. When you’re bringing people in, you do the best you can, throughout the processes and avenues you have to learn as much as you can. Health is a big factor. Availability is a big deal, especially with the salaries of the players and the impact that they have on our organization and our ability to win.
He’s just trending in the right direction, even though he’s a little bit older, and he got rewarded for it as a free agent. He’s a core piece of our team and it was always the goal to have him back. You acquired Jae Crowder during the season last year for five second-round picks, so you obviously believed in his abilities, but — and I think Jae would even admit this himself — he didn’t have the postseason that he wanted to have. He wasn’t able to provide the impact that he wanted. With that in mind, what gave you the confidence that he can be better for you this season?
I think it starts with he made more 3s than anybody in the league last year off the bench — not that he’s going to be a bench player, that’s to be determined; there’s open competition — but he was able to fill a role and do it incredibly effectively last year in the NBA. In his career, he’s been a guy who shoots a lot and makes a lot. He definitely can get his shot up when he wants and he makes it in a really efficient way. I think he has more to his game.
