Franchise History
The Milwaukee Bucks were formed in January 1968
when the NBA
awarded a franchise
to Milwaukee Professional Sports and Services, Inc.
(Milwaukee Pro), a group headed by Wesley Pavalon
and Marvin Fishman. In October, the Bucks played
their first NBA regular season game against the
Chicago
Bulls before a Milwaukee
Arena crowd of 8,467. On April 30, 1971, the
Bucks won Game 4 of the NBA Finals over the Baltimore
Bullets in Milwaukee 118-106, to win the NBA
Championship. The championship was won faster than
by any other expansion team in professional sports
history (3rd season). In 1972, the Los
Angeles Lakers had their record 33-game winning
streak snapped by the Bucks during a nationally
televised game, and in 1973 the Bucks recorded their
third consecutive 60-win season, the first NBA team
to do so.
In 1985, Milwaukee businessman (and now U.S. Senator)
Herb
Kohl bought the Bucks after fears that out-of-town
investors could buy the team and move it out of
Milwaukee. In 2003, after considering selling the
team, Kohl announced that he had decided against
selling the Bucks to Michael
Jordan and would "continue to own them, improve
them and commit them to remaining in Wisconsin."
In the 1988-89 season, after 20 years at the 11,052-seat
MECCA (Milwaukee Arena, now U.S.
Cellular Arena), the Bucks moved into the new
18,600-seat Bradley
Center, located directly across the street from
the MECCA in downtown Milwaukee. The Bradley Center
was one of the first arenas in the country to be
built with luxury suites. The Bradley Center was
privately financed from a $90 million donation from
Milwaukee businesswoman Jane Bradley Pettit in memory
of her father.
In the 2004-2005 season, plagued with injury problems
and a poor defense, the Bucks missed the playoffs
with a 30-52 record. However, despite only having
a 6% chance for the first selection in the NBA
Draft Lottery, the Bucks won the first pick
for the 2005
NBA Draft which was later used to select Andrew
Bogut of the University
of Utah.
