Middleton/Johnson to Wash for Kuzma/Baldwin

[stillgotgame]

Also I know Horst is the whipping boy but Doc is running things now.

This looks like a Doc trade. Giving up on AJ Johnson takes a different level of idiocy than Horst has. What a moron.

[Ron Swanson]

I dunno. I think we're better today than we were yesterday. I'm sure Horst tried to get Jokic for Midds but Denver probably wanted the '31 first and we can't do that.

This can be and probably is true. I can also think of at least a dozen different and better trades that would have accomplished this same goal.

I love Khris but I am most upset about trading Johnson

Milwaukee is roughly $300K below the second apron. A team that finishes above the second apron after the 2024-25 season, will not have their 2032 first-round pick available to use in a trade.

Yipppeeee...we can trade our 2032 first round pick starting this off-season. LOL!

Brogdon probably doing some assisting GM'ing over there to help fleece Horst.

I'd be willing to bet he won't get away with that in MKE. But it is funny to see. Those are some "Last game of the day at the Y" ass shots.

There's going to be a point, in the likely not-too-distant future, where we're watching a 25-57 Bucks team get blown out in Orlando and we're reminiscing about the Giannis years and we're debating at what precise moment it all fell apart.

I fear that this trade is that moment.

Wouldn't the Bud firing be the moment? It's been all downhill and chaos since then

Agreed with this. But if I had to point to a singular moment it was Kevin Love sliding under Giannis and Giannis hurting his back just a few minutes into the series. It all fell apart from there. I’m just glad we got one I can’t imagine if we hadn’t how depressing the ending of this era would be.

I'll go one better. Khris' slipping on his sweat and hurting his knee in 2022.

Horrible Trade, Horst needs to be fired.

Giannis is legitimately a better shooter oooof

As part of the Kyle Kuzma-Khris Middleton trade, Washington will get 2028 swap rights with the Bucks' first-round pick that is already swapped with Portland, according to a league source. That means Washington can swap the lesser of the two selections. That pick is also protected 15-30 if the Blazers haven't yet conveyed their future pick to the Bulls by that time — i.e,, they can only execute the swap if they actually have the pick.

The Wizards will send back to Milwaukee the second-most favorable of its 2025 second-round picks originally belonging to Detroit, Phoenix or Golden State.

I hear ya. I get it. I liked my Spurs trade, but unfortunately you and I are not calling the shots... yet.

This guy had this last night, just a random guy but it appears pretty legit that he gets at least some inside info/gossip. AJ being included in this was the sticking point.

But seriously, folks. Do you know how many times I watched Midds get so turned around on defense that he ended up playing defense with his back to the guy he was guarding? THE GUY WITH THE BALL? It was bad, y'all.

Not saying Khris can't get back to being Khris, but dude should have been traded a season or two ago if we're being honest. Should have been Khris instead of Jrue.

Yep. He has no lateral mobility anymore, and was always the worst defender by far anytime he stepped on the court since he couldn’t stay in front of anyone.

[yb90]

I don't know what to post. This is just a bad defensive and offensive player. I don't understand it. What is Kuzma good at? Are they hoping he is P.J. Washington? At least Washington tries on defense. I get thinking Khris is done but you don't make trades to get worse when you are trying to compete unless you get compensation to set up another deal down the road.

Yeah, that's what I read too. So it is very likely to be around the 15th pick of the 2nd round.

Yeah, theres no way we pull the trigger unless something else is lined up.

If I’m Brook Lopez I’m just excited to learn from this guy.
