"I think at a certain time of the year players just hit a wall," he said. "Maybe I've just hit a wall. Hopefully, I can bounce back and move on and keep rolling and give the energy that the team needs.
"The legs are a little bit mushy and you try and fight through it. Sometimes it's hard to fight through it but I try my best and hopefully now I had a real good practice (Monday) and felt good. Maybe it's just that time of year. I hope I can just keep doing what I've done before."
-Dan Gadzuric, Milwaukee Bucks’s backup center.

This is what you might expect to hear from someone logging 40 minutes a game, or perhaps a player in their late 30s. Upon closer examination, however, the mushy-legged Gadzuric, is 31 years young, has logged an average of only 13 minutes per game ,and played in just 41 of the team's 52 games. At $14 million over the next two seasons, perhaps young Dan might purchase some new legs, or perhaps a case of 5 hour energy? Maybe he could shed the gold bullion ankle weights. Last night's 7 point, 9 rebound effort is nearly three games worth of production. Wonder how long it will take him to recover from those 18 minutes. Tired just thinking about it.
