Giannis isn't gonna be fine with one or two "gap years" at 31 years old.

Then he's gonna be traded. Either he accepts that the Bucks are going to have a couple lean years in which he can pad his personal resume, or he'll be moved.

There will be other deals available. The Lakers have been trying to reunite why Kuz for years
Lol I'll believe it when I see it. He's awful and the league is aware.
We (not me) spent all of last off season overvaluing our trash players assuring ourselves there were deals out there for them. I'm not doing it again.

No disagreement, but it also has to be acknowledged that Kuminga has just turned the age the Kuzma was as a rookie. I don't see it with Kumminga, but he does have time to grow up. Rudy Gay eventually got it, but there isn't many others

Not even close. They have a great supporting cast. OG, Hart, and Bridges are better than everything we have. The only reason we're a similar team is because Giannis alone is so much better than Brunson and KAT.
That's ok honestly, watching Giannis shoot free throws is so damn painful

Kuminga at 22 years old as a 4th year player was statistically a more inefficient version of 22 year old rookie Kuzma.
Dude is just a dumb player. Non winning guy. If it hasn’t clicked by the end of year 4, seems unlikely to click.

The last thing the Bucks need is a low IQ guy. Not touching Kuminga at all.

Come on. An NBA FO recently gave up a great glue guy and exciting young prospect for him.

Proves there might not be a dumber GM than Hotrs. Especially when you factor in the last two coaching hires.

Jrue gives you a solid 30mpg next season, easing more load off of Giannis then Kuzma will. Yeah we have to eat an extra 12M? in year 3 vs Kuzma but that's your argument? Jrue will really help out next year and the year after he at worst would be an overpaid 6th man. Who knows what happens in year 3, maybe he retires or maybe we trade him as an expiring. Jrue and KPJ is at least a decent enough backcourt for next year so Giannis isn't completely alone and we'd get a 1st out of it. Not to mention how great of a teammate he is, that's something that is under appreciated especially during a "gap year."
