i find that these type of deals are agent driven and it's not a discussion between many teams.

It just leaves a lot to be desired at the guard spots. But yes, they're making the best of their situation.Bernman wrote:The Bucks affordable FA re-signings of Trent, KPJ, & Rollins help offset the cost sunk into Dame, at least this yr. Rollins got multiple yrs at 4 per. These are underrated players, along w/ another cheap one in AJ Green. 4 legit rotation guys making a combined 14 million dollars.

They want to be bad again next year for the lotto. They can literally wait the apron/high-tax teams out until the Fall if necessary.

Do you think Beal signs with you guys? On one hand he theoretically fits as someone who stretches the floor for Giannis and can do some limited play making. On the other he’s Bradley Beal

I'm a Cavs fan, I'm well aware of KPJ's on-court potetinal. It's what is between his ears that has derailed his career. He's never been short on talent.soxperry wrote:JujitsuFlip wrote:It just leaves a lot to be desired at the guard spots.

our guards are going to surprise a lot of people this year. Rollins and KPJ can both defend, it's not going to be a fast lane to the basket like it was with Dame. Rollins played through a separated shoulder last season and has some potential offensive upside, especially driving to the hoop. KPJ, we're just hoping his production with the Bucks last year can scale up with more minutes because he was pretty incredible. Even when Dame was at his best here, I enjoyed the KPJ experience at least twice as much. I know most people dont care but if you want to know why some of us are excited, this is why:

He had every opportunity to make it work in Orlando, but just couldn't seem to find the consistency. One of my issues with him seems to be his talkative nature. Too much gregarious for a guy who isn't very productive. Grant Williams is the same. You can be a guy who talks a lot when you consistently produce, but when you are up and down or more down than up, you just become annoying.
And not that they would bc he's cheap but Davis is non-guaranteed.SpreeS wrote:Curry/Podz
