Horst has traded 7- 1st round picks and 4 full pick swaps since taking over as GM. The Bucks have 0 players or assets remaining from the trade tree of those deals, and still owe 3 of the unprotected swaps. We also have 0 real 2nd round picks remaining.

That opinion would not hold up under any scrutiny when looking at the moves he made which led to a championship.


His resume looks better if Middleton didn’t have his body fall apart and Giannis miss significant games in so many playoff series.Things outside his control.

Where his resume will take a hit in years ahead is the fallout from the Dame trade continues to manifest itself over the next five years.

Is CP3 the greatest unlikeable player?

I hate CP3 but I don't think I like Karl Malone more.

Westbrook leads the Kings to victory over Denver in Denver.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Harden with 55 points (10/16 from 3). I've never cared the dude's playstyle but why not go chase a ring in these twilight years instead of rotting away on the Clippers?

True, but if I was him I'm trying to get a ring before I retire

Some hate his play style (pounds the ball, orchestrates for himself).

Some hate his sportsmanship, like the time he tried to undercut/hurt Giannis in the finals. Lots of trips. A few nut punches.

Behind the scenes, he is known as one of the biggest dbags in the league. Lots of stories of bullying and petty grudges.

I don’t know him enough to judge, but I have never been excited to watch him play. Hard to consider him exciting or likable. Unless you like pick and pop and 18 foot jumpers.

Return to Milwaukee Bucks
