Keep Giannis. Fire Doc. Let whoever else go except kpj and gt, maybe Green too. Get young players who are not zero on offense or defense. Get a creative non stubborn coach

I like retaining that starting 5. Bring back Rollins. Maybe finally bring in the chosen one - Larry Nance.

I will be playing 2K tonight just to fire Doc and replace him with the team's trainer.

Doc, Brook and TP are probably gone. Getting rid of Kuz will take some work.
Bring back GT please, Horst.

Same. I'm not a frontrunner. I'll watch every game.
Real ones will be back, we are gluttons for punishment.
It all hits different when you have no expectations. It will be hard for me as long as Giannis is here - not that I want it to end. I just know we should and could be more

But yeah, if I watched us start Bell/Redd/Ruben/Skinner/Bogut, I can definitely handle some more down years. Actually in hindsight that doesn't seem so bad, but that team won like 25 games

I did, but that was before I had my own kids. Like I can justify leaving my kids at home to watch Giannis, not so much Ramon Sessions lol

Us sickos will be back no matter what. I wonder how season ticket holders feel or care about things? And if that matters at all?
I think it's clear Doc can't come back but I don't know if ownership fully understand the hole that we've dug ourselves.

Real ones will be back, we are gluttons for punishment. I wasn't quite old enough to appreciate the Ray/Big Dog/Cassell era. I was old enough to process the Ray trade, that's kind of when my fandom really started. That was tough sledding for a long time, and always happily tuned in for Jim and Jon.
I vividly remember picking up a journal sentinel paper the morning after the ray trade and going to school pissed about it, thats when i became an arm chair GM and really got invested in the franchise. Hate how we’ve mismanaged the prime of an all timer but I’ll be here no matter what Happens. Won’t be getting season tickets anymore though

Gotta give green like 3/12 or something like that this off season if we can.

DPE and offer it to Kuminga.
He gets his change of scenery for one year, and we get a young player who has physical talent and a need to prove it.
I like the RFA ranks more with a similar logic:
Davion, Isaiah Jackson, Grimes, Sharpe,
Maybe you offer the DPE to Trent, and use the full-mle on someone instead.

Re: Bucks News, Transactions and Trade Ideas - 2025 Off-season
I get it guys. GA is my favorite athlete ever and I doubt he’s surpassed in my lifetime. And if he is adamant about staying, you probably keep him. But there is zero chance we can build a title contender with our current situation. And if you do wait, you are looking at probably the longest turnaround to contention in NBA history.

Re: Bucks News, Transactions and Trade Ideas - 2025 Off-season
It’s going to be extremely tough for Horst to shape this roster if Giannis is down to stay. Dame, Kuz and Pat take up roughly $85 million of our cap.
Try your best to get out of the Kuz and Pat experience and cross your fingers that Dame can come back at some point next year.
Horst REALLY has to hit on the margins this offseason if we want to be competitive with Giannis. He’s found diamonds in the rough before but he’ll have to dig even deeper with our complete lack of trade assets.
Only players I want to bring back are Giannis, Bobby, Green, Trent, Rollins and Sims. If KPJ comes back on the cheap to be a backup guard? Sure.
The rest of the roster should be up in the air.

Bring back GT please, Horst.
Other teams that were interested in him recently include Lakers, Warriors, and Dallas.
