They'll likely get Ayton

They actually need 2 of them. I'm guessing they deal Knecht for 1.

Speaking of centers… we need one too. Turner?

Bucks are going to use that 2031 1st to get MPJ or Markkanen. You may not like it but it's coming. It''s our best bet to get a sub 30 year old large wing that can compliment Giannis. That along with retaining Trent/Bobby/KPJ will make for a heck of an off season given our limited resources.

28-year-old Michael Jordan has come from the multiverse and is signing with the Milwaukee Bucks!

ESPN: I'm not sure that will be enough to persuade Giannis. I'm hearing he really likes New York.

If youre hoping for a Brook sign and trade, i just looked at the Clippers contracts and its not promising.

Kai Jones would be a nice add if we dont land Ayton

No, he basically got mle money.

He got more than MLE. MLE is 14.1. He got 62 over 4, which is 15.5.

Mpj has negative value, so... No on that one

Yeah so the first year can be 14.1. would be weird if mle didnt allow for yearly increase

Deals don't have to start and end at the same price.

Who can give Gary that kind of dough? Who are his options?

I’m not sure if you have sources or if you’re just weirdly confident in an opinion but Horst should be imprisoned if he gives up the ‘31 1st for MPJ.

Weirdly confident

Yeah, I think you're right that it does escalate with the cap.

Don't know, that's why I was asking. :lol:

But I think the dream of splitting the MLE between Trent and a big went out the window.

NAW is probably more highly thought of than GTJ if we’re being honest.

I think that has more to do with the big market than the Gary market. Brook's old ass got 9. I feel like Gary could be had for 10 but we aren't getting much at C for 4.1.

At 2/18 should we have just kept Brook as a backup big?

id give up the 31 1st for Markkannen but could we get Keonte George back too
