Not definitive but let the games begin.

I hope DEN is on his list. Him and Jokic together would be fun

BS

it's giannis who keeps getting injured late

it's giannis who wanted to let go jrue for lillard

but it's not his fault that the bucks are old

and it's giannis's fault that he's become a whiner

LeBron for Giannis here we go! lol

I know it hurts, but it is Shams, not some random journalist. Also, it is interesting topic.

Lakers baby

But seriously, who's ready to win and got lots of assets? OKC. Pacers. Houston.

Dark horses - Philly, Mavs, Raptors.

OKC - why not. Chet for Giannis and some picks? Pacers got tons of young players. Swap Pascal and a young player with picks for Giannis. Houston - Jabari and some picks for Giannis. And you can't forget the Nigerian connection - Ime and Giannis would be a dream team.

Philly could go for broke here - will have to trade one of Embiid or PG13 and picks. Mavs are in a hurry to get legit, though the fit of Davis and Giannis is questionable. Masai has always dreamt of working with Giannis. He just might be ready to pull off another monster trade.

Any chance the Lakers can get him? They don't have the draft picks I'd think.

Reaves/Knecht/Hachimura/1sts?

Valid complaint. This is Shams abusing his standing to generate clicks and content.

Hopefully he gets out. He's too good a player to waste the rest of his prime on a Bucks team that is going nowhere.

Because Shams has legit sources and 9/10 he gets his info and insight from an interested party (Giannis and his camp, in this instance) feeding him the info, using the media to advance a certain agenda

That's my thinking - this is Giannis' camp sending out feelers, because it's pretty plain to see Bucks aren't going anywhere, with no room to improve.

We endured how many Donovan Mitchell to team X threads last year, with Mitchell commenting afterwards how it was silly to see all the baseless reports? It's part of the business here, it's a basketball forum. If someone like Shams is reporting it, it's going to turn into a conversation.

Blazers say “thanks for the opportunity to play”. That trade couldn’t have worked out more favorable

I thought the Raps had a legit chance several years before the Bucks got Jrue but not anymore.

How do you figure the Raps would be darkhorses now?

I agree.

The Lakers don't need to add Reeves.

Knecht/Hachimura/1st should be enough.

As long as they can get Nico the job as the GM for the Bucks absolutely.

Otherwise? That's pennies on the dollar...

Exactly. Everything Shams reports is quid pro quo. We know the Bucks aren’t the one leaking this so it has to be Giannis’ camp.
