I wish Herb Jones wasn't hurt. He'd be very high on my plausible wish list.

I have a strong feeling we will make another move today.

Trade Marjon or Livingston for a TPE. Then sign Rollins.

Trade Marjon/Baldwin for any player at a vet min or rookie scale contract. That's 2.7 million going out and 2.1 or lower coming in. Then either waive the player coming in or Livingston.

That would be a kick in the nuts to make a move that causes us to become worse, while we also don't get below the 2nd apron or have to give up another future talent in Rollins to do so.

They simply had to have another substantial move lined up that actually makes us better, in order to justify getting barely under the 2nd apron in the 1st place. Though why hasn't it been announced, over a day after the Kuzma deal.

I'd trade just about anything outside of Giannis to get Sabonis. I think that 2 man game would work great. Especially if we can get a competent PG if Dame were to be apart of the package. Sabonis has great handles and touch for a big. If he's available we should 100% go after him

I know exactly where you got this from ("Sean Wright" on Twitter). That guy is fake. Maybe it happens but this guy just throws guesses out there trying to get lucky.


He’s got some pretty good luck posting that we agreed to trade Middleton for Kuzma and Baldwin at 6:15pm the day before the trade was announced.

Pacers have a ton of buyers remorse after giving Toppin a big extension after his Tim Thomas style playoff run. We could move Pat in this deal, get Nesmith, or throw in all draft capital for Mathurin.

I like Nembhard too, but he's one of their few they're not shopping.

I think Nembhard is the reason Mathurin is expendable

You can convert a two-way to a standard contract and be eligible for the playoffs anytime before the last game of the year.

They don’t need to convert Rollins now, and can do it later when his salary cap hit would be smaller.

We will absolutely not make any moves that put us back above the second apron. Not happening. We're $9.4 million over the first apron, I'd love to somehow get under that too.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Or Horst tell the Wiz to kick rocks and not include Baldwin in the deal and waive him. What a fumble.

Rollins has plenty of time left on his 2 way, we don't need to rush the full contract.

Obviously basing this on nothing, but kinda feel like it's gonna be one of those "Bucks were super active calling up teams trying to get something significant done, but nothing materialized" deadlines for the Bucks. Would love to be proven wrong.

We don't have all the way until the playoffs, & the point was we're not getting under the 2nd apron + signing Rollins unless we make another salary-cutting move.

Either they already had another move lined up which they didn't announce yet (even though it's over a day later now), or this wasn't well thought out.

Smart and Bogdanovic are some newer rumors.

Maybe we do a smaller trade with Utah for Dennis S?
