Yeah a lot of these deals show "Bucks organization" levels of desperation.

Midds is better than CJ tho..... So, why?

It's probably arguable. I would prefer CJ, but with his back injury now who knows. A CJ led team is > Midds led team.

Donte might be better this year now that he doesn't have to keep up with all his rookie duties.

Seriously though, imagine if NCAA championship Donte appears. He's only 23... It could happen.

He better suck it up or he'll cost himself a lot of money. Will be hard to think about the team wanting to trade you if the team is winning and he's playing well

I hope he doesn't see it as 'the team wants to trade him'. I'm sure they didn't want to give him up, it's just the way it is especially when you're light on assets.

Bucks will need to explain that to him. I don't think it will be a big deal moving forward, don't see him demanding a trade or sulking

Chuck,

Do you see any way the Bucks are completely absolved from blame here? I just need to know where to direct my wrath at the moment.

I'm not Chuck but absolutely not.

The Athletic is reporting that the Lakers and Hawks are expected to be suitors for Bogdanovic.

If the KOC/Simmons report is true, all of this stems from the catastrophically bad Jrue trade. We could’ve had Bogs for Bledsoe+2020 first or DDV. Kept all our future firsts and hill.

How the hell can the Lakers be suitors?

I love Donte but I highly doubt that. If Donte is reading this thread, ITS NOT YOU ITS THEM!!! (the organization). We'll happily welcome you back and look forward to your continued growth as a player.

I love Donte and I bet you do as well but he just doesn't project as a guy who can go get his own offense or at least help others get theres.

That what this off-season was supposed to be about.

I don't want to lose DDV but that's the move they made to get Bogdanovich. This whole thing is horsesh-t.

This is so f***ing sickening. I don't know why I can't just close this tab and leave it alone. But if the NBA gives Bogdan to the Lakers on some bullsh*t technicality...

The report also adds:

don’t be surprised if Bogdanovic draws interest from many of the same teams who would love nothing more than for all of this chaos to convince two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo to eventually head their way (Miami, Dallas, the Clippers, the Knicks). Why? Because it’s widely known that Antetokounmpo — who will be offered a supermax extension by the Bucks on Friday and has until Dec. 21 to sign it — has been recruiting Bogdanovic to come to Milwaukee. That reality, of course, means he has an added bit of value beyond his basketball talents.

The Jrue deal at this point honestly makes me sick.

Donte is a very poor mans Marcus Smart.
