Why would we pay Taurean more than last year and also give him a player option? Garbage

Prince was a top level shooter and basically got a minimum deal. It’s fine. Just know his limits.

In regards to using the MLE to have signed KPJ. This would be bad...


Marks is losing it.


Let’s assume for some reason Marks is right and the Bucks are the dumbest team ever by giving KPJ the exact amount of the max BAE but used the MLE to do so. Why does that mean they only have a min salary for GTJ? Wouldn’t they still have part of the MLE to use?

This is all pointless because Marks is an idiot.

As long as he doesn’t play in the playoffs whatever.

Wow that’s terrible. I was looking forward to moving on from Prince. He’s a solid spot up shooter but not a good player at all. Barf.

Doc and Ham love them some TP, so to think he'll be used sparingly even on a vet min, seems optimistic. Rather he just not be on the roster.

Can't stop giving player options. Per yr, it's fine. Can we fire Doc/Ham so they won't misuse and over-use him?

it is indeed a vet min contract.

if all he is doing is eating regular season minutes and filling in when needed in the playoffs, sparingly, this is more than fine.

he should not be a starter anymore, though... that would be insane.

Gotta assume Trent takes the rest of the MLE and we're the exact same team as last year, minus dame and brook and 1 year older

It's honestly a "fine" contract but this organization is so hilariously complacent and un-creative. Doc and the boys are BACK BABY!

We needed to Doc proof the roster. How have people already forgotten that he STARTED this guy at the two? Blatant failure.

Technically I think it’s the raise they can give him on the min. If they use him as a stretch four, then it’s okay to eat minutes in the regular season. When Doc starts KPJ/Prince/Kuz/GA/Bobby, we’ll regret this deal.

Prince is fine if he is used correctly
