Played 6 seasons in Milwaukee and won them a championship. But I am willing to bet that he was miserable playing there. He was an intelligent black guy that stood out and not afraid to speak his mind. Doubt that made the average person in Wisconsin happy.

Never a great fit there, but he was clearly the best in his class.
