Bobby will be like the ~ 140th highest paid player next season. I don’t know why that would warrant a C- grade.

Why anyone wants Wiggy at that salary. He is only a hair better than Kuzma

It's a pretty long hair.

I'm not a Wiggins fan by any stretch, but he's a switchable wing that I would have more confidence in than Kuzma.

If Ayton goes to the Lakers, does Brook come back on a cheap deal?
Coach Drew: "Milwaukee has always been a team that I have been intrigued by. When we played them, they were a tough team for us to play. Although we did beat them all four times"

Yeah that's interesting. They would take Ayton at the vets minimum. Where else would Brook go?
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

I would die laughing if Ayton goes somewhere other than the Lakers. All the comments are "LAKERS!" on Twitter.
That said, he's a solid center in today's NBA, when he's healthy.
I'm torn on Brook even on a cheap deal. I'd want assurance he's a back up that is used situationally and I don't see Doc being smart enough to do that.

Regular season minutes eaters are important. Doc (finally) saw the light in the playoffs.

Re: Bucks News, Transactions, Trade Ideas - Portis Returns - 3/$44 million
Bringing Brook back just feels like a bad idea honestly. He’s not coming back for a vet minimum and the way he would need to be used next season is a vet minimum. I just don’t see the point in even being tempted to make Docs job anymore difficult by gift wrapping him someone he has to use his brain to figure out what’s best for the team. I also don’t see Brook being useful enough moving forward to justify paying him any type of money that could turn into a more usable and flexible asset. I still say not trading him at the deadline was a huge miss. Even having an extra 2nd round pick last Thursday night and a direction with a little more flexibility now was such a great idea 4 months ago.
He’s a great Buck and it was fun for a good while but business is business and Brook is headed towards Hakeem Olajuwon on the Raptors status and there’s no money in that.
