where does this put us in terms of the tax? any impact? if this was three weeks ago, would it impacted us getting under the second apron and changed our deadline moves (besides also knowing we had a big man hole)

Kuzma has a big opportunity to step up here
Milwaukee Bucks backup center and fan favorite Bobby Portis has been suspended 25 games by the NBA for violating the NBA’s Anti-Drug Program by testing positive for Tramadol, the league announced.
Tamoral is an opioid pain killer with a potential for addiction that was banned by sports leagues globally within the last year after studies funded by the World Anti-Doping Agency showed the potential for Tramadol to enhance sports performance.
Portis called the error an “honest mistake,” with his agent adding the 30-year-old thought he was taking Toradol — an approved pain/anti-inflammatory medication — that was given to him by one of his assistants.

Now we don't have a replacement for him, but do have 7 bigs on the roster (5 smalls, 2 mid-size guys). I would say cursed season, but look at last year. And this year we more brought it on ourselves.

The haters have needed something like this after BP has been playing so well.

You're being such a baby to keep calling everyone "haters", even those who were one of his biggest defenders the first few years. So sensitive on his behalf. Here even a considerable part of the argument is he was going to leave so get something for him. And this event, being a bonehead, to be unreliable again, didn't help his case. But you're disingenuously trying to obscure that.
Speaking of which, if you're calling for people being banned, you definitely should for highlighting single game net rating for Kuzma, but dismissing it for a few years up until recently for Bobby. Also for claiming people should be banned for proposing the acquisition of Kuzma (a useful player for us so far), not even for Middleton. Yet again highlights your hypocrisy & immaturity.
