I won't even hate if he goes to Dallas. It will be interesting to see how he and Luka would coexist tbh.

It could just be me, but Im reading this as Dallas will be going all out for Giannis, not Giannis has Dallas as his #1 team. If that is the case, then okay doesnt surprise me that a team that is trying to win will go all out to try and land Giannis. I think many teams will be doing the very same thing.

God I hope he stays with MIL.

I'm sick of this kind of bull.

We need Franchise Tags in the NBA like they have in the NFL full stop.

Yeah that's how I read it, they'll be pushing the hardest for hom, doesn't mean its mutual

Mavs keep their flexibility not just for Giannis... even without him there are so many nice options.

Gobert
Holiday
Healthy Porter
Healthy Oladipo
Josh Richardson

But of course everyone knows that, so as usual Windhorst with nothing new or exclusive sauces etc

No we dont, he'll have been there 8 seasons after the coming season, 5 as an elite player, if u can't build a contender in 5 years with a great player you deserve to lose him.

Same as they should

He's going to sign a supermax with the Bucks. I find it funny how many people just assume he'll hit free agency. He's from Greece and he has a very large family, plus the Bucks have proven they can put a winning team around him. He's taking the money.

Ain't happening. Would bet money on that.

Yup. I mean if the feeling was mutual then I agree that this would be newsworthy. But Im sure over the next year we will be hearing stories from multiple top teams that are preparing to clear space and make the necessary trades to go all out and try and land Giannis. That is kind of expected when a 26 year old who is a 2x MVP and DPOY hits free agency, that doesnt happen too often and I expect a mad rush of teams trying to get him.

& Windhorst knows a thing or two about being in the front of the line , as he is always at the front of the line at Golden Corral

Gobert isn't a fit, love holiday and his fit ive seen before he'd be my main target with a 3/90 type deal, porter and ri hardson arent worth maintaining flexibily for and dipo is a huge question mark i also wouldn't be maintaining flexibility for

this guy will get any team in front of the line for Greek....and sorry Dall you shouldnt have waived him if Greek was in your plans, he apparently didnt like how the knicks did Thansis dirty

Ship has sailed. He's jealous of his brother' s ring and wants one too. Miami, Dallas NYC Boston are all prime spots to go to.
