I am still in shock about the stretch. In this era of aprons, you committing 22M+ in useless money really hurts a team if they want to contend.

Just why though?

Does Giannis leave since they waived his boy dame?

It is, but if they lose Giannis they may as well move the franchise to Vegas.

yeah this was a desperate play to appease Giannis and must have gotten his approval. They have a 5 that works perfect with him...but there guard play is suspect.

Brooke gave them similar production last yer.... they could have kept him for 10 million instead Damian and tunrner is a combined 48 million

Dame will be rehabbing this year, so they probably did this to try to keep Giannis.

Bad vs. good front office work. It makes a difference.

WILD.

They have to keep Giannis happy.

Yes this likely means Giannis is staying.

Waiving a player you pushed to play through injury to get a worse injury is cold blooded.

Lopez was a FA that is from the west coast maybe he didn't want to be in MIL anymore. He's also 37 years old.

Turner is 29.

The Pacers just took another hit and the Bucks just screwed themselves. One move hurts both teams! Jesus. This has been a crazy morning! I didn't even eat breakfast yet! :lol:

It's horrible, but they must feel desperate to give Giannis a shot. And Dame couldn't play (much) this year, so cold blood won.

We need to trade Mitch and/or Bridges/KAT.

Make a move.

Wow wow wow the east is ours for the taking. Don't **** this up, Knicks.

Indy will probably tank now with Hali out...that move to get there pick back was huge for them.

Wild assumption that Deuce starts but, it's a better looking team than last year already. I don't care for Clarkson but, we got a backup 4/5 that is young and solid!
