Geez, could you imagine Steph and Giannis together though?

Could've had Steph before drafting Giannis, if not for some combination of the old medical staff, Hammond & Skiles.

I think the likelihood of any team offering a trade package that I'd accept rather than just letting Giannis walk for nothing is pretty slim. The hypothetical Warriors' trade packages do absolutely nothing for me.

The days of "getting a superstar for cheap because they'll be a one-year rental" are probably done after what we saw with Kawhi. It's why the Warriors thinking they have any sort of attractive trade package is pretty hilarious. You don't think that if the Bucks called up the Sixers that they wouldn't immediately fork over Simmons plus other assets for Giannis? I'm not even that big of a Simmons fan but he'd easily be a better return than whatever Klay or Draymond plus junk picks package the Warriors could ever cobble together. There's probably more than a dozen teams who can and would offer young blue-chip guys and not even think twice about it (NOP - Ingram, DAL - Porzingis, PHX - Ayton, MIA - BAM!, etc.) You're an idiot franchise if you value "assets" more than even a single season of having the arguably the best player in the league.

The articles you're reading are clickbait bull, they're not real. You also don't give up another shot at a title for Klay **** Thompson who just puts you back on the treadmill for two or three more years.

Wolves got the previous 2 #1 overalls and Thad Young for Kevin Love, granted one of the #1s (Anthony Bennett) was already a joke going into year two, but Wiggins was the Next Big Thing. The top pick in a well-regarded draft, another young prospect, and a good player is about the sub-sub-basement offer for a Giannis who wants out.

I'm too invested into Giannis at this point. I'd rather we ride out his contract and hope they could get 1 ring out of him, if he decided to leave. No trade package would be worth it to me anymore.

Giannis leaves and I am hanging up my Bucks fanhood for at least a decade. Probably spent about 100x the amount of time agonizing over this franchise. Might be a well needed break waiting until a 38 year old Giannis resigns a 1 year deal to finish out his career here.

A 30 year old coming off a torn ACL, a 30m cap dump, and a couple 1sts does not get you the best player on the planet who is 25 years old when an injury prone Davis got the Pels Ingraham, Ball, Hart and like 5 1sts.

I don't think Giannis will leave us any time soon but if he does, we absolutely WILL receive a kings ransom for him.

Hey everyone, let's keep thinking of stupid-ass trade non-possibilities for Giannis.

Dunno who this is referencing but it would be *amazing* to get a defensive stud like Draymond for Giannis :D

Depends how the cap situation is around the league but if he keeps his bubble play up (big if) he should. He's 21. Scary where he could take his game.
