SuperSpursfan2002 on Twitter just pulled Stephon Castle from the deal. Says Castle and Sochan just too much to give up given the injury.

Anywhere from 1-3 weeks to several months. Nice.

I really hope there is someone smart in the Bucks' organisation right now who knows exactly what direction the franchise needs to go down. They have a chance to be our hero and saviour.

Calf strain. Precursor to Achilles.

I’m not buying anything right now. I feel like I just watched the franchise die in real time.

Just sitting here staring at the bucks bench waiting for Giannis to come back out like a kid who got forgotten after school

I can't imagine what it would be like to play ultra physical defense and still have a foul to give with 5 seconds left in the quarter.

Must be nice to be the Lakers or Heat.

How can your team be so terrible that the Pistons can dedicate 3 separate people to defending just Rollins going to the hoop? What is this absolute garbage we are putting on the floor

Yeah, I'm just bracing for the worst. Calf strain may low key be the best case scenario if you want to keep Giannis in Milwaukee. We can tank and can't trade Giannis. We come back in the summer with the 8th pick and '31 available.

Hell, even average physical defense.

If anything, you calling it hyperbole makes me more apt to belive what was truly the end :lol:

To be fair, we play turnstile defense anyways. I've never seen a team truly look like they have to work for points against us, fouls or not. Even Giannis has been BBQ chicken defending from the 3 point line.

The way Rollins walked to the bench after Doc "coached" him gave me "**** off, old man," energy.
