So Magloire goes to the Bucks, while Desmond Mason and a pick goes to NO/OKC. I'm guessing Mason was expendable with Bobby Simmons there now. The Bucks have themselves a decent little team there now.

Given that Magloire is a former Wildcat, I've followed his pro career and am a fan. Will he be used to play power forward, or is he simply a "teaching aide" for Bogut?

Judging by the head coach's statements, I would hope PF. Maybe help groom Bogut a bit, but I don't see why you'd play him at center and have the top pick ride the pine, when Bogut's supposed to be more NBA-ready than #1 overall picks from years past.
The reports I've seen have Smith starting at PF, if healthy, and Bogut off the bench. Because Smith is a better fit for making them a playoff team this year.

They do. The Central seems stacked now. I wonder if all 5 teams could make the playoffs from that division? I think Detroit, Indy, and Cleveland are definite locks. Chicago is minus Curry now so I wonder if they could take a step back from last year.
