Woj: Malcolm Brogdon S&T to Pacers for Picks (NO TPE)

[mke_design]

Brogdon didn’t wanna he in Milwaukee. It’s that simple. We got a massive trade exception and restocked a bare cupboard.

There is absolutely no evidence of this, but I guess saying it enough times makes it so.

Thank you, I have zero idea how this is being repeated like it's an absolute fact.

It isn’t fact, it’s deduction and theory. Your theories are allowed too.

If Butler truly wants to go to Houston what about getting in on a three-team deal to get Capela or Gordon?

We can't get either because they both make too much. If reports on Brogdon's salary are true our TPE can absorb someone making between 9.85m and 11.85m all things considered depending on how Brogdon's deal is structured. So looking at the teams that want to clear salary (Miami, Houston, Wolves) the following fit:

Richardson (10.1)
Covington (11.3)
Tucker (8.35)

[Plossum]

Really sad to see Brogs go. He was like that really solid Iggy type guy on our team every contender needs.

Have to think there is some truth to the rumours he wanted out.

I’ll wait to pass judgement on this until the chess pieces have stopped moving.

I would believe the stuff about Brogdon not wanting to be here if he had gone somewhere considered more "progressive", but he's going to Indiana so that means we either didn't want to pay him or didn't think he was worth it.

Well you certainly aren't framing it as deduction and theory, I think that's the issue.

You’re also ignoring Brogdon’s medical problems.

The Bucks traded an asset they were going to lose for another asset.

I'm no doctor but Brogdon's plantar fasciitis and the quad injury from the year prior were unrelated to the college foot issues. It's by no means a forgone conclusion that every foot issue will amount in nagging problems. But people always bring it up because it's convenient to their arguments.

And they were not going to lose Brogdon. He was restricted, and the only evidence he wanted out was a Gery tweet and some posters intuition about his body language, so that idea is still speculation.

Brogdon missed almost a season’s worth of games in his three years here. People around the league have referred to his foot as a ticking time bomb (The Ringer talked about this). If that’s not a red flag, then I don’t know what is.

It sucks this was the perfect free agency for him to leave and get a big payday, but the Bucks F.O. Made the best of it. Who knows if he wanted out or not, but the fact this deal was done so quickly points to the notion that he did.

Couldn't have said it better. Right on target IMO.

Again, why can’t someone have a theory that’s contrary?

There were talks about a starter who "wasn't apart of the culture" the other four starters are all signed to longterm contracts now. I think it's pretty easy to deduce who the rumored malcontent was.

[Balls2TheWalls]

Hopefully something breaks soon about who we might look to bring in. Calm the board down a bit.

Welcome back... Matthew Dellevadova?

That is NBA Champion Matthew Dellevadova to you.

His connotation with discussing Milwaukee's segregation seemed to hint at not wanting to be here. Rumor from Gery was one upcoming FA this season wanted out. Eric extended. Everyone but Malcolm opened up about wanting to return if possible in media.

He's the one who wanted out. They let him have his wish.

And everyone else is framing their theory as that? That’s certainly not the case. If I put that this was my principle conclusion I would sound like I’m going to write an essay. It’s a message board.

Covington is signed for the next 3 years, that would be sweet. I like him. So is Richardson (last year is PO).

No way they move Bam, they are in love with him.

I'm not buying $18 burgers and $7 sodas if they weren't willing to pay to bring Brogdon back.

Your mistake was buying them in the 1st place. I bring my own burgers

[ajb905]

Anyone know what Kevin Pelton said of the trade?

[lvckv]

Teams like Miami and the Wolves aren't going to trade us one of their 2/3 good cheap players for nothing + a mid-20s pick guys. Let's get real here...

They are both trying to go after max guys, and you don't clear cap space for nothing. You have seen us give up assets to clear cap space.
