Middleton, Lopez, DDV, pick swaps for Harden and maybe even they’d throw in Tucker.

**** it, changed my mind. Send Middleton/Brook/DDV/Pat for Harden/Tucker.

Jrue/Augustin
Harden/Forbes
Craig/Nwora
Giannis/DJ
Portis/Tucker

Nwora might already be better than Craig but that lineup looks good!

Jrue/Harden/Giannis with any two others players to ever play in the NBA would be a great lineup. Pair them with Mark Madsen and Dan Gadzuric and its still a great lineup. Pair them with post-hip IT and post contract Salmons and it's still a great lineup.

Our starting SG averaged 6 PPG last year. We were the best team in the league before the shutdown.

It's 2020, I thought we were over PPGZ?

That's the conclusion after a game where the Bucks shot 50% from the floor?

So to get better in the playoffs you want to acquire a career 33% playoff 3 point shooter?

Roll with what we have. Maybe tweak the bench.

For the 2nd straight year our starting SG is going to be very mediocre. Just a feeling.

Salmons deserves better !! I remember the night we traded for him at the deadline like yesterday. Oh how the years go by

Shouldn't have made or leaked the trade.

Chill... Merill will be fine

When is Forbes eligible to be traded?

I'm referring only to the Bogdanovich s&t. I also think DDV will be fine, it just might not be here anymore if there's a post failed trade chemistry issue.

Today if he didn't get that no trade clause offered to each FA this year.

February 22nd?

I remain flummoxed at how quickly this board can turn on guys that have played two preseason games. I'm seeing a lot of shade being thrown at Portis, Forbes and Augustin already. Those guys combined for 29 points on 12 shots last night. That's amazing efficiency! Give the guys a chance. The entire roster (starters included) were torched by both Dallas's starters and their bench. This is a bad matchup for the Bucks and, more importantly, Bud. Carlisle is another one of those coaches who's clearly two steps ahead of Bud.

Now, if you want to talk about Conny, that's fine. We have two years of evidence indicating who he is on this team: a vet minimum player. Shockingly, someone felt he was worth more than double that. While not the same contract, it's similar to the Plumlee contract in that it was obvious from the second it was signed that it was a bad contract.

It has nothing to do with his preseason performance. He's simply a terrible defender, and Merrill can do what Forbes does.
