Id love to see the reaction here when Giannis ends up getting moved for Karl Towns and Miles McBride.

As a Laker fan even if we don't get Giannis always Kessler/Lauri (I know Utah fans lol) and all the rest :) Giannis/Luka would be dope for sure, but i'm happy with others as well:) hope this thread gets bumped midseason :)

Oh please. Giannis has never once asked for a trade. It just gets annoying every season this same crap comes up. Bucks look like being one of the best teams in the East, and so many seem obsessed about Giannis next team
He isn’t a selfish ring chaser ego maniac like KD or Lebron

And i stand by my belief Giannis couldn't stand being a teammate of Luka (more than playing for the Lakers)

Giannis will always want to be the clear cut number 1 in any team he plays for. And The Bucks have done a pretty decent job in the off season surrounding him with a supporting cast (with limited resources)

Finally The Lakers cannot come close to affording Walker Kessler in a trade, let alone Giannis.

Only the most delusional nitwit out there thinks the Lakers will trade for Giannis. Especially as your poo poo roster is a lot worse than the Bucks at the moment and you play in a much harder conference .

LOL not once did the Lakers offer Reaves for Kessler though, I bet if they did, Ainge would bite espcially now :)

It's possible the Lakers are gearing up for a Giannis trade before the deadline using Reaves as the main piece and whatever picks they have to offer. Reaves going to be a all-star at this rate. Bucks will be forced by Giannis to trade him to the Lakers. Getting a all-star Reaves gives Milwaukee some hope moving forward.

You guys think I'm crazy or am I on to something here?

Luka's injury was so mysterious, that he literally was grabbing his wrist after the incident during the Pelicans game, before being ruled out for a week.
And then the whole conspiracy failed to deliver when Luka returned from the injury 1 game earlier than predicted.
