And so it continues…

BREAKING: Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo is not pleased with the team’s decision to waive Damian Lillard, league sources tell me.

This feels like PR

Not buying that. Haynes is a Dame guy

I just need to point out that we got a lot of Giannis on the move reports, that were debunked by Giannis at least. I am just saying this before annoying Bucks fans call us all idiots again for believing ''journalism''.

Im pretty sure Haynes is Dames media guy

Giannis is playing chess while everyone thinks he’s playing checkers.

OF COURSE he’s pissed “wink wink” while whispering “thank the lord”.

What else would he say?

I would assume such a drastic move would be discussed with Giannis first, so I am hesitant in fully trusting this story.

Giannis already tweeted and was ecstatic about the Turner signing, surely he already knew the full transactions behind it

Giannis will be happy with it during the season when he has a full roster instead of a $50M sitting on the trainers table.

Giannis would definitely know before it happens, so I don't believe it.

What the fart? Does Giannis not realize this was the only way to free up money for Turner lol

I don't think Haynes actually knows the stuff he claims to know. He was sitting live on NBATV all day yesterday looking at his phone while the others were talking and the only thing he reported was Jake LaRavia to the Kings. Which, Jake LaRavia actually signed with the Lakers.

Come to SA, Giannis!

This is just to make Lillard feel good. "Oh wow man I'm so sorry to lose you, I'm so upset" he really isn't

This is dumb.

Milwaukee very graciously ate a lot of money to put a better team around Giannis as soon as humanly possible. There's no way Giannis is upset about this. Heck, this isn't even necessary from a PR standpoint. I'm sure Dame is happy to have been bought out too.

No way in hell he didn't know about it ahead of time. LOL at trying to drum up "GiaNniS iS UnHAPPy!!21!" crap for the 60th time.

Yeah, but on the other hand: it is quite insane if Myles Turner can convince Giannis to stay in Milwaukee. They'll have objectively worse roster than they had this season.

My thoughts as well. Everything they are doing is to keep Giannis happy, so if they aren't consulting him, they're crazy.
