I don't know why the genius Nick Nurse doesn’t make some adjustments.


I approve of this but also they lost Gasol and Ibaka and Lowry is finally over the hill.

On the other hand, FVV and Powell have become borderline all-star calibre players, and Boucher is in the race for 6MOTY.

He should have an easy job there. Play sound defense.. and on offense, move the ball around, shoot open 3's, and maybe even get some dunks here and there :p

We can take Curry off their hands if needed :D

I would assume there is one. Just not one that was publicized.


And this is apart from the fact that the dude knifed us (and had a previous history of knifings). I can't imagine we'd be eager to revisit that relationship.

Wait, are you sure of this? I thought it was just that we had agreed to a deal, but the league stepped in when Lasry started bragging and Woj tweeted the agreement?

If you're citing Bogdan's comments, I'm pretty sure he said that to avoid the tampering from his side.

Hammond might finally be shaking it up, albeit only after the Magic collapsed and Gordon demanded out.

The buyout market has always been more names than game anyways.

This finally being the guy Danny Boy finally gives up some assets to acquire is hilarious.

Any chance we could get Gary Harris or Will B from the Nuggs?

What a bad fit Gordon is for that Celtics team, they should be trying for Vucevic or Jonas V.

Really Ainge?

After all this Ainge will use the Celtics resources to acquire ... Aaron Gordon?

Nope.

I’m thinking for the 6th man role (so keep Donte).

They like to switch absolutely everything. Gordon fits that for them. I don't think he's a terrible fit given what they're trying to achieve on the defensive end.

Return to Milwaukee Bucks
