Milwaukee Bucks
 PROFILE
The Milwaukee Bucks entered the NBA in 1968 and soon cashed in. After finishing the 1968-69 season last in the division, the Bucks drafted Lew Alcindor (later Kareem Abdul-Jabbar), who wasted no time in leading the team to the NBA Championship in 1971. Abdul-Jabbar left for Los Angeles in a 1975 trade, and although the Bucks were somewhat successful in the late 1970s and 1980s under coach Don Nelson, the team hasn't won a championship since. The Bucks are led by coach George Karl (who signed a two-year contract extension in 2001 that makes him the highest paid coach in pro sports), forward Glenn Robinson (the #1 overall pick in the 1994 NBA draft), and guard Ray Allen. The team plays in Milwaukee's Bradley Center. Senator Herb Kohl of Wisconsin owns the Bucks.
