The Milwaukee Bucks' roster is certainly different for 2013-14,
but does that mean it's any better than before?  With a
seemingly never-ending mandate to "just stay competitive," the
Bucks were active throughout the summer. Trading Brandon
Jennings for Brandon Knight and ostensibly swapping Monta Ellis
with O.J. Mayo via free agency will certainly cut down on the
attitude headaches. Yet, how much upside does either player have
left?  Larry Sanders and John Henson appear to have bright
futures, and one might eventually add rookie tongue-twister
Giannis Antetokounmpo to that mix, but the roster still feels
devoid of stars. Why then did they round out the crew with
"luxury items" (i.e. minute sappers) like Carlos Delfino, Caron
Butler, Zaza Pachulia and Gary Neal?  The Bucks may actually be
more competitive this year with Larry Drew at the helm, but they
will probably matter even less in a much-tougher-than-recently
Eastern Conference.  NBA Featured Columnist Dan Favale joins
