Bucks need to capitalize on that mistake. Plenty of guys on the Bucks that know how to win a championship for the low, low price of young talent.

Which might be great for us![/quote]
I don't think they need that much with two high usg forwards. They could model their team after Boston but it's going to be hard to find a high level pg that's a shooter and defender. One player they could try to go after is Murray but he may take away from their forwards. Brogdon is a vet who can defend 2s while Suggs is a their Derrick White type POA defender. If they go for a pure offensive type pg Tyus could be a FA option who doesn't need many shots but shoots it well from the outside. Another option would be to try and pull Quickley out of Toronto.

As for Bigs: Lopez and Olynyk are two options that could really work for them. Hopefully, they value the shot blocking of Lopez more.

I can't believe he did a between-the-legs dunk in a playoff game. On the road. At MSG.

I like the Knicks (because I liked Jay Wright Villanova teams), and I hate that. Like, NYK vs. Minny would be super dope.

Trading Donte for Ibaka continued a 20 year run of futility in using restricted free agency as an advantage for the Bucks. Hopefully whoever the next Bucks GM is understand the value in it.

3 coaches on the court and the ball bounces right off a guys foot and the refs miss it.

Seriously.
