Giannis Thread - All Things Giannis - Shams says Bucks open to deal Giannis

[humanrefutation]

RS, you think two podcasters have info that we don’t? Go make some home made soup.

If that Atlanta package was on the table the deal would have been done already because there isn't another deal in the league that can beat it.

We are just starting the public bidding and feeding frenzy. There are deals that may be better. Would not assume that somehow that ATL deal couldn’t happen.

I agree that you can't assume anything at this early stage. But I have not seen a package proposed that would beat this.

Legit LOL tweet.

Fu... Jimmy butler he hates milwaukee isn't he hurt more than giannis is

So how many greek posters are we losing to this news? Hopefully a few stick around like some of the aussies did after Bogut.

Also wonder how many of us die-hards stick around. I probably will because I'm addicted, but there's a chance I'm out for a while.

I think major sports are losing fans in general w/ the "big market" teams either buying or forcing all the top tier talent to play in their city. Still love baseball, but based on whats gone on last few years...im out on the MLB for a bit. NBA, honestly when we fired Griffin to hire Doc, then cut dame to whats transpired and the whole nba every year since giannis got good trying to create divide between him/bucks...might just be out on the NBA. NFL is the only one I am still invested in to a more than casual extent. College sports, long gone since NIL.

If Rollins / Turner put a Jalen Johnson + 2026 Pelicans pick (and ideally Bucks 2027 top 4 protected pick) over the top idk if that’d be a stop.

For **** and giggles here are the current Kalshi odds on where Giannis is after the deadline next week

Milwaukee - 58% (down from 76% earlier this morning)
Miami - 17%
Knicks - 14%
Warriors - 10%

These numbers change pretty quickly and don't mean anything. It's interesting to see them fluctuate as people put money on it.

I’ve always said I am taking a 5 year break after Giannis. But I’ve found myself less and less interested in the team with him here. But a full proper rebuild? May have to rethink. A patchwork trade for guys like KAT and whatever, or god forbid Jimmy Butler, I’m out period.

[Daver]

Listen I agree 100% with all of us, Hawks aren't trading Jalen and the picks to us for Giannis. I think it comes down to Miami, NYK (ONLY IF THEY CAN FIND A LEGIT 3RD TEAM WITH PICKS/PLAYERS THE BUCKS WANT), Raptors, and a darkhouse I think the Magic. If we can get the Spurs deal with Harper coming to MKE let's go. Doubt Houston throws together a legit offer.

Not so sure on Atlanta my friend bedn reading slot of quotes on X ftom pod casters n hawk followers that think that Johnson n that pick could be had for giannis.Never say never

[SirChurros]

I’m on board with whoever said Portland. Mainly because I love Deni, but also because it’d be hilarious pairing Giannis and Dame again.

Eh, this is the 3rd largest board here and it didn't get that way because all of the sudden Giannis showed up. Most of us got here during a run of extremely mediocre basketball.

Give us some hope for the future and something to look forward to and the excitement will grow.

Is GA pulling a Kobe and just barking for them to go make a real move to keep him in contention or is he just sick of living in Milwaukee without his family

Daver: Bro look if we could get that deal, let's go. My main question which if that deal came through is does Giannis sign long term in ATL? We all know he wants championships, don't think Hawks are there yet.

[Cooleyo47]

I don't begrudge this moment, I just wish he hadn't pouted for half a season on his way out.

[Ron Swanson]

Every single tweet coming out right now (Shams, Stein, etc.) is basically nuking the idea that he's ever getting traded to the Knicks lol.

I will probably be on here more now.

The Spurs and Rockets are the main teams for me. Tell them OKC is sitting there to trump their offer in the offseason if they don’t figure it out. I’m ready

[Matches Malone]

Just going through random scenarios in my head, but If this lasts until the summer and OKC somehow pulls a Dallas and miraculously wins the lottery with that LAC pick, maybe we can do some type of Andrew Wiggins/Kevin Love deal where we trade Giannis for the player they take #1 plus additional assets.

Watching that pod this morning with Devine and Haberstroh made me feel like I was losing my mind with their discussion of the Knicks and Golden State.

I think the problem there is if there was one team in the entire league that needed lower salaries it's OKC. I think they'd be much, much more likely they deal someone like Chet and reload with the LAC pick.
