Bucks News, Transactions, Trade Ideas - Sign Pete Nance to 2-way

I also don't like that Porter Jr appears to have a PO next year for around $4.5m....

$2.5. Easy to include in any deal we make this summer.

Ah misread. Certainly better. It's really hard for me to put aside his off court issues. Naturally I want the Bucks to do well which means he needs to, but man, it just stinks having to root for the guy in a Bucks jersey. Oh well, there has likely been plenty of other players I've had to do the same for at some point and probably didn't even realize it.

Guys, Bucks are +2800 to win the finals. It's worth a $100 flyer for that sweet, sweet payout when we go on a run like the Heat 2 years ago but we pull it off.

I had to resort to NBATV and ESPN during the crash. It was awful. All they talked about was Butler, the Lakers, and Durant while all sorts of trades were happening. NBATV at least talked a moment about the Hawks and the Cavs.

Part of the league's problem with ratings is probably due to their national coverage only focusing on the stars of yesteryear, who have almost no chance of winning a title again in their careers. They should be promoting Denver, Cleveland, Houston, Memphis, and OKC. Instead, they just keep talking about dudes in their mid 30s.

KPJ has been very remorseful about what happened. Stop Acting like people don’t deserve a second chance in life, sometimes man. He has some great mentors around him now. Rooting for him to do well .

Hell yeah. I'll stay positive until they rip my heart out. I don't discount Giannis and Dame in the playoffs

I’ve heard of Porter before, but what I found interesting is his bbref page has him logging time at PG, SG and SF so did we just get dollar general Lavine?

He is a more cost effective Marcus Smart.

If I don't finish this post before the site goes down, I just want to let you all know I lov

e Jon Horst and the additions he made?

[MVP2110]

I won't pretend to have watched a ton of KPJ this year. He's only shooting 24% from 3? What happened to his shooting?

Curious if KPJ or Rollins is the backup PG the rest of the year

Many are remorseful when there is millions on the line.

F that guy with a cactus. His second chance is not being in prison. Playing professional sports should be a privilige not a right. F that dude.

ETA: F Horst for bringing him in. Good riddance this offseason. Wish they let him go rot in Detroit.

[Coach Carter]

Lol what moves are these? Are we trying to build a losing culture? I can see Giannis punching KPJ.

[MickeyDavis]

We're receiving something from SA, it hasn't been reported what.

KPJ played for a Greek team

[BucksFanSD]

Smart trade in getting Porter Jr for MarJon. Talent, youth, and athleticism was targeted so at least Horst knew those were areas that needed to be addressed immediately.

I wish I could do the whole “we have Giannis/Dame so we have a chance” thing, but I can’t. We lowered our ceiling by trading Khris and getting back a player who is younger & more available but has been garbage this season. We did a nothing player for nothing player trade (MarJon for KPJ), except the nothing player we brought in is a woman beater.

We didn’t trade either one of our slow/unathletic bigs for a more athletic defensive C. We didn’t get a starting 3 to replace Prince. Didn’t get a tertiary shot creator/playmaker to take pressure off Dame/Giannis and help out 2nd units.

We ducked under the 2nd apron but got worse as a team while all the teams above us either stayed as good (BOS/NYK) or got even better (CLE). This was a garbage deadline and the only thing keeping it from being a full blown catastrophe is that at least we didn’t flip our ’31 1st for a 35 year old like Derozan or something. Hooray. Fire everyone in the offseason.

2nd round pick to 56 protected?

[MiltownMadness]

I'm maybe the biggest Khris guy on here, but we did not lower our ceiling by trading Khris. His body was not holding up for 16 win playoff run, no possible way. Understand being down on the team, I'll still watch it unfold and hope things break okay.

[MickeyDavis]

I have no doubt Brook, Bobby and Pat were available. And in the last 24 hours we could combine any of them. I'd love to know what the offers were that we turned down. Brook and Bobby definitely had some value

Unserious deadline for an unserious team. It’s like we actively made it a priority to target the most inefficient, trash offensive players in the league. Whatever, just see how far a healthy Giannis/Dame duo can take you in the postseason, then clean house this offseason and bring in some actual competent basketball people that won’t run this organization like a fantasy basketball team.
