Re: ATL - Powell to the Heat
I wouldn't even pay $50 to go to a summer league game let alone $650...I bet opening night tickets for the Mavs won't even be that high.

You’d have to pay ME to watch Bronny.

Re: ATL - Powell to the Heat
Doesn't matter if Mids is bought out now. We can't resign him until Feb 7. I'm not convinced he'd come back anyway.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Someone mentioned that we can sign him as of the new nba year.
I wouldnt be able to smash that button fast enough. You can bring in Khris when Kpj goes out to help him feed Giannis. If hes the only bad defender on the court then its fine.

Think Khris has too much pride to come back even if bought out.

You're right. It reset July 1. I wouldn't want him until February anyway. I don't trust he'd last a full season, even with reduced minutes.

He was ticked that it leaked out that he was cleared to play but wouldn't.

You guys are over thinking this. Midds will finish his career with the bucksMickeyDavis wrote:tydett wrote:Think Khris has too much pride to come back even if bought out.

Wiz release Midds before the season, Bucks sign him and let him do his ease into the season in Jan with limited minutes thing. Unleash Midds in the playoffs when you know he’ll gut out 25+ mpg of beautiful shot creation. He’d look even better surrounded by faster athletes instead of Brook.

Re: ATL - Powell to the Heat
The reverse Middleton/AJ Johnson for Kuzma trade would be the funniest outcome.

I just looked it up and I was wrong. It's a full year unless they were traded on the last year of their contract.

Re: ATL - Powell to the Heat
Champaignie fits what we're looking for well from a small fw, if we're not going all in for a shot at the #2 option already. Problem is, we lost our trade exception to absorb him. And someone else would at least give a 2nd or two, which we've burned.
The only trades we can really do involve Kuzma. Kuz for Smart & Champaignie. But I don't know if any team would do that, let alone the one who had a bad experience with the same player at the end. 3-way trade here? The only other players we could concede are Ajax or Smith.

I do think the Bucks would start out as the favorite if Middleton is released, but I think its far from a certainty. Especially if its post trade deadline, I could easily see OKC trying to get him to have a little more scoring punch when SGA sits.

Re: ATL - Powell to the Heat
Is Khris even eligible to sign here if he was bought out now? I thought I read somewhere it's like a year after the trade or am I making **** up.
