Can anyone remind me who was the one that got Darvin Ham fired? Was it on Giannis recommendation?!

Leon using KAT as a way to get his main target in Giannis is cold blooded

I just realized now that the Bucks don’t control their picks in 2025 and 2026 and I think 2027. Wow.

It does since he has a no trade clause

“But ESPN’s Bobby Marks told NJ Advance Media that the Knicks could not trade Towns ”straight up because Milwaukee would be taking back more money.” The Bucks are reportedly in the dreaded second apron, which, among other things, prohibits teams from taking back more salary in a trade than they send out.”

But the Western Conference source said he didn’t think the Knicks or Nets were likely, pointing out that the Knicks would be without a center if they somehow traded Towns.

“Who’s the 5 man?” he asked.

That source also pointed out that after losing Jrue Holiday to the rival Boston Celtics, it was unlikely the Bucks would facilitate a trade of a two-time MVP to the Knicks.

It’s not happening Guanyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Giannis to NYK is as unlikely to happen as NY trading with TOR, NY trading with the Nets, or NY obtaining KAT in a trade. Neva gonna happen!

tbh, i'd rather see him go out west and preferably to some poverty franchise like the clippers. Houston wouldn't even be that bad.

why wouldn't the bucks try to move dame instead of giannis - since they don't have their picks and a rebuild seems unlikely.

Leon seems to have been making the impossible trades possible lol

Are the Knicks on the same level as the Celtics and OKC?

I feel the knicks wondow is small. Maybe 2-3 years so Giannis falling off soon doesn't worry me.

I just don't know if we would be better with him and killing our depth even more.

Prolly part of beign hesitant is being a prisoner of the moment with kat playing out of his mind. Idk.

Like SB said it's pretty dope we are in this situation to even realistically consider this. Cause we used to talk about sht like this with NO realistic chance at it. Then tune in to games to watch the knicks get blown out.

I hear you, but I don’t even think Towns is playing out of his mind. As I said elsewhere, he’s literally producing his career averages with the exception of 3P%, which over his career only was a mere 39.9% :lol:

It is bs, but Brunson, Bridges, Hart, Giannis, Towns is the best basketball team ever assembled.

Brunson, McBride, OG, Giannis, Towns a close second.

Brunson, Bridges, OG, Giannis, Robinson… I don’t know man.. the shooting …
