Giannis Thread - Giannis Trade Ideas Here - Haynes report pg 57

[raferfenix]

Giannis does not want the challenge of retooling this team after the failed trades his pushed for and atom bomb explosion of a coaching situation he set off.

A gap year until we recoup a modicum of draft assets to bring in more talent is too long.

Also Mariah doesn’t like the cold and Milwaukee could be more glamorous not to mention lucrative for sponsors.

[LISTEN2JAZZ]

Why would Giannis tell his teammates he can't control what happens? Does he think they're stupid? Did any of them believe him? He can get on social right now and announce he wants to finish his career in Milwaukee, and then that's what will happen.

The only people who pull in more endorsements than Giannis are Lebron and Steph. I think location only matters for non-stars who do local car dealership commercials.

Trading or swapping more picks to appease Giannis at this point would be so freaking stupid. Trade his ass and let’s get excited about this team again.

[SirChurros]

Giannis + Thanasis for Johnson + Risacher + NOP 1st works in the trade checker.

Risacher is more of a salary filler lottery ticket at this point. Can't remember a more insignificant #1 pick since maybe Anthony Bennett.

I really don't think it's out of the question to ask for BOTH Johnson and the NOP pick. ATL will still have a good supporting cast around Giannis to compete and the pick adds incentive to Johnson who is a good player, but also comes with his own injury history.

Injury history is my JJ concern.

Yeah, this is my big concern too.

That doesn't mean they're not going to do it.

Does anyone have a different opinion as to the severity of his injury this morning versus a week ago?

[Ron Swanson]

Giannis has been consistent from day one. He said he would stay as long as the team was winning. We did a lot of winning and he stayed longer than most would've. Giannis will always be loved here.

It really is this simple and it's weird how some simply never took his word for it. I get that sports fans always need to invent reasons to hate a once beloved guy as soon as it's clear the business relationship is over, but if he gets traded for a haul in the next few weeks, then this was about the least acrimonious and most win-win superstar divorce in recent history. Dude has always been honest about his motivations.

No. It's a legit injury that they're obviously gonna milk an extra few weeks to keep him out of the spotlight until they can fully gauge the trade landscape. Like most conspiracies, it completely falls apart once you apply basic logic (why would he rush back from the groin injury and why wouldn't they have just said he re-aggravated it?).

Yeah ok.
Jrue Holiday did exactly that and the next day(yes, the next day!) he got traded to Portland.

LOL sure.

Seriously. A lot of name calling last week. I will always love Giannis and will look back fondly at his time here. Spending all of my money on that title run was the best sports experience of my life, and will not be topped. But this whole song and dance at the end is just gross. There had to have been a better way. Or maybe those folks were right. Giannis can't support his team from the bench because the strain needs constant attention due to blood flow issues. Verrrry believable all things considered.

[RubberSoul]

One of the primary reasons I’m not into the fake injury conspiracy is Giannis absolutely cares about his stats and basically 0’s across the board tanks all his per game stats.

Giannis has always been consistent with what he’s said but he was 100% out on this team before it ever even played a single game together and you’re lying to yourself if you don’t think that’s the case.

My issue with his “winning” demands is that he refuses to buy into a tank or a gap year.

[Frank Nova]

Giannis, Thanasis and Gary Trent Jr.

For

Jalen Johnson, Dyson Daniels, Pelicans 2026 1st

LOL sure.

The state should probably investigate the doctor/MRI techs then because faking an MRI test is medical fraud and sometimes even a felony.

Over dramatized maybe under these circumstances but definitely not faked. Giannis and calf injuries are peanut butter and jelly nowadays.

But is it if the Bucks are just saying they did it and lying? It's not like they are giving out fake scans to the patient, or more important in actually prosecuting the crime, they are not ripping off insurance companies.

But yeah, it didn't make sense for Giannis not to either "get hurt in practice" or play 20 min to get his stats on a half-hearted effort before tweaking his ankle or reaggravating his injury on a drive. He obviously cares about his stats.

I'm on the fence on the injury but lean 'convenient' based on that sports doctor Nick Riveria saying he couldn't quite understand what happened after watching the replay over and over. Add in the fact he wasn't on the bench when he's ALWAYS on the bench.

LOL . You actually asked if anyone has a different opinion on RealGM.
