That's fair, but to think they will get a crazy offer for Giannis is crazy.

Giannis controls his destiny and whatever team he joins he knows whatever Milwaukee gets back is going to hurt his future team.

Milwaukee is not going to get a crazy offer for Giannis. I repeat Milwaukee is not going to get a crazy offer for Giannis.

Why wouldn't they just take KAT in this hypothetical?

Building around Kat and Turner sounds like a disaster. KAT is like 30.

Did you make this comment before or after the Giannis injury?

Before, but it doesn't matter.

We will see I guess.

I just dont understand how you think Milwaukee holds any leverage in this situation. Giannis will pick the team and they have to make the most of whatever that team has to offer.

You seem to be missing the point, which is that you have them accepting a low value package from us so we get KAT. KAT is more valuable than the package you are sending. Why would MIL prefer ours? What leverage do we have? That's the part you seen to be missing, you have us sucking value out of the deal and then defend it by saying MIL has no leverage.

If NY is moving KAT in a deal and the return is going to MIL for moving their MVP caliber player, other teams are going to make better offers than that.

You seem to be missing the point I never said it was a realistic offer. That's just a offer I threw out there. Not sure we would even be interested in KAT considering we look like we are tanking again.

If you never thought it was a realistic offer, why did you keep defending it by saying MIL has no leverage?

Because im separating the two lol

The fact is Milwaukee has no leverage so don't expect great offers.

I was just using KAT as an example as that was one of the rumored destinations Giannis wanted to play for.

Oh boy are they about to regret the Dame stretch and waive over five years.

No picks and a huge chunk of dead cap for the next 5 years.

If they don't get an absolute Kings ransom for Giannis the are so f***ed for the next decade.

Also every time a superstar demands a trade everyone says they'll get reamed because they have no leverage.

But 9 times out of 10 they get a bounty of picks and swaps plus a decent prospect amongst the salary filler.

The only exception to this is De'Aaron Fox because Kangs. Plus Fox isn't fit to shine Giannis's boots.
