So… when do we trade for Giannis? Mid season? Next off season? Before the start of the season in a surprise trade?

I'd say we'll probably manage it in 2035 when he's 40 :lol:

Ok… the Juwan Howard approach. Gotcha!

Horrific might be the worst ever Eurobasket in terms of talent only decent team Serbia will play in the group stages is Turkey and other than that only ok team are France and Germany everyone else is bad or mid at best. I said it before but no NBA player getting meaningful minutes should be at this tournament.

I'm happy Niko is playing well but if you watch the highlights the competition looks pathetic and severely outmatched. Still, has to help his confidence at least.

Hell no, he's a 2023 draft picks and got waived already? From what I've seen he hasn't shown any NBA level skills yet. Just measurements.

Adding another skilless low IQ player who the Mavs would play at C (despite him being small for a PF and a average sized wing) his skills were so bad, Kesean Johnson can do what that guy does. JJJ looks like a god compared to OMax

I guess Spo might find another undersized C so he does not have to play Ware with OMax

So, after a long offseason, September is the month that some action will start.
The media day is at 23 of September

Competition might not be great but at least they’re building their confidence and getting reps in. For Jovic specifically there are worse things he could be doing than spending the summer with Jokic and Bogdanovic

herro Still has a bit of room to grow...jeje... Boy hope I'm right, because the team needs something better

I I want to clarify my views from before... I almost sure that if new york has herro As a third wheel besides Brunson and Towns... They Become champs last season... I even think they have the beginnings of a small dynasty.

No because pretending Herro is not only the missing piece to a team who was bounced prior to the finals winning the entire championship but the missing piece to turning a franchise into a “dynasty” is just a completely wild hot take considering he’s never shown he can impact winning in the playoffs. Not only that but he’s now in a much lesser offensive role which further hurts his effectiveness and just gives the opposing team an easy target to hunt all game. Lol.

So, you saying that with a "much lesser offensive role" on the current team, Herro will get targeted more? He should be freed up more. Don't understand that rationale.
