Some GM is gonna steal Dame before Pat even wakes up to notice Dame was available.
For a long time it gave me nightmares,witnessing an injustice like that.It’s a constant reminder of just how unfair this world can be.I can still hear them taunting him, Silly Rabbit tricks are for kids.I mean why couldn’t they just give him some cereal?

Bucks just shuffled some chairs around, at least they showed Dame who is boss though. I’d only be interested in a vet min contract, after moving Wiggins and Rozier.

If both Luka and Giannis sign extensions this offseason (which I expect), then Miami should be in full tank (and development) mode this season with an eye towards upping trade value of every player on roster and shopping each of Bam and Herro (and Wiggins) for draft capital.


We then hit up the following year with a youth lineup of:

Ware/Goldin
Boozer/Jovic
Dybantsa/JJJ
Peterson/Larsson
Davion/Kaspar

Let Davion be our culture leader.

Bring in Dame to be our vet.

Got damn that is pretty.

Porter actually did ok for them. He has potential, but he needs to mature both on and off the court. But now Milwaukee needs a backup PG. If Cole Anthony became available...

Turner / Portis
Giannis / Prince
Kuzma / Connaughton
Trent Jr / AJ Green
Porter / Anthony (?)

That's a good team. Maybe they could swap Kuzma for DeRozan.

Any chance the Bucks would want Terry Rozier? According to Bill Simmons he's 80% Damian Lillard. :lol:

Bucks are still cooked. They have the worst type of archtype eating starter minutes. Kuzma is that bad for any team looking to win games.

Bucks have called about Wiggins every year, I expect them to do it again. Maybe get a 1st or a 2nd with kuzma. It at least gives the front office the 1 way offensive player they've been hunting for. And cuts a little salary.

It can be done to anyone its just a lot of money to just eat… you know damn well mickey arison is not going to buyout a contract of 113 million… hell hes not doing buyouts 40 million.

We will see if rozier gets bought out.. may play the whole season with us just to get mickeys money worth.

Should have been the Heat waiving Dame today. Cronin screwed us. Patrick is washed.

Giannis can have a Dame reunion right here in Miami if he's really not pleased

That's 3 turd defenders roaming the perimeter. Dame alone cratered that defense, now there's 3. Trading jrue for dame was the biggest mistake the bucks made in the giannis era.

It's just my frigging luck when the time finally comes for us to FINALLY go full youth movement suddenly a washed up Whale appears on south beach...

He's barley breathing and could probably never swim right again but we just can't help ourselves..
We've GOT TO GO GET THAT WHALE....
