The projected starting lineup of:

Dame
MalikB
Khris
Giannis
Brook

is just deadly in offence. Could imagine stretches where we get back to back 3s or and1s.
No matter if it is viable in the playoffs, I drool to watch it.

If we don't start off 28-0 this board will melt down.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Ridiculous how quiet the boards have been. Season can't start soon enough.

Oh well, gonna be super exciting and screw Miami. At least we have that.


Thought about this too but I'd rather have Middleton as third fiddle than Jrue. Middleton as a secondary ball handler and play finisher instead of a primary creator is more valuable to me than Holiday's slipping defense.

It is pretty inexcusable on the Blazers part to not even pry Marjon or Jackson out of this. Idiots.

So....Portland is flipping the bird a little to Riley and the heat with this trade right?

Is there any chance Beauchamp starts at SG? Or Pat?

And we will finally see how Giannis play with real PG.

For sure, and could be sending a message to Lillard like "You want Miami? Well you get Milwaukee. You will win ringz tho"

I would think both marjon and AJJ would get a really good look here.

I thought marjon was actually best guarding shooting guards last year. In part due to his slight frame giving him some difficulty on forwards, but also because his length allowed him to really envelope a lot of guards.

Much love to y'all and good luck this coming year! Glad you guys don't have to worry about Giannis and his allusions, genuinely happy for you all there and glad Dame can go to someone who'll appreciate him.

The beauty of not including Mids is that now the Bucks can trade him for Embiid when he gets disgruntled and wants out to go to a contender.

Gonna blow minds if it gets out that Lillard wasn't as dead set on Miami as he led everyone to believe. Seems Jimmy Butler and Tyler Herro may have figured that out today.
