Is Horst still the lowest paid GM in the league? They owe that man millions

How Giannis reacts to this on the court will be fascinating. Dame has the stature and ability to demand the ball. I would hope that Giannis can give up some of his usage and focus his energy elsewhere. He and the team will be better for it

74 Win season good?

Can’t wait to see our next move to see how we fill out the open roster slot now! We still need a backup PG and a big bet wing IMO

Your biggest concern with Dame (beyond perimeter defense, he's fine imo in the post) will be if he learns to and willingly accepts moving off the ball and moving frequently. He can get a little stand aroundish sometimes, that's what (besides the better shooting overall) truly separates Steph and him. Steph is such constant motion where Dame has never been that without the ball. Chauncey tried to get him to do it a bit but it didn't work out all that great.

I'm hopeful he'll improve this area with this type of team around him. Everything else is kosher. You'll learn to live with his long threes that sometimes seem like bad shots because he can and does make them and teams must and absolutely do pick him up at halfcourt because of it.

Genuinely curious how well Giannis adapts to having a guy on the team who deserves the ball as much as him or even more. Going to be some growing pains but very excited for him to be off ball a little more. Him not needing to do everything will help the offense and his body.

Hey all, Celtics fan in peace here. Not loving you guys getting Dame, but I am loving that you stopped him ending up in Miami, very well done! Good luck for the upcoming season

I would guess he welcomes it. Giannis has never been selfish and has proven he will do whatever it takes to win.

My guess is Giannis takes on the toughest defensive matchup in the final 6 minutes and defers to Dame offensively in those minutes.

Agree and hopefully no more 3 point shots either.We have 3 ball handlers now.I have to think giannis will absolutely change his apprach on O now with dame.He got his wish its up to stotts to make it magic.This team could very easily score 130 a game

Congrats guys! Amazing trade for you. Looks like Horst was listing to all that Giannis talk after all, didn't think you had the assests to pull it off.. Giannis is one of my to favorite two player alongside Jokic and my favorite dunker of all time. Gonna be honest outside of him y'all have been boring to watch not many tune in to watch jrue or khris, but you just became must see TV gonna have to tune into ton of your games this season. Hope to see you in the finals!
