He stated that they want to win. That rules out Ja.

Keep Adebayo, Wiggins, Larsson and Mitchell, and send everybody else for Giannis.

You guys probably want to keep Jacquez as well, I imagine? Selling high on Larsson would also be smart.

Ware, Jakucionis, Larsson, Herro, Jovic, 29 1st, 31 1st ought to be one of the best offers MIL gets.

You'd probably be more balanced if you swapped Herro for Wiggins, though. And I don't see MIL caring either way.

Herro is a Wisconsin kid. The easiest way for the Bucks to "sell" the idea to fans about moving on from Giannis, is to bring in one of their own.

Also, is there a call for Riley to step away from the Heat? Why is he so adamant about remaining unless there's rumblings...

That being the same Tyler Herro that decommitted from the Badgers to go to Kentucky and talked mad crap about the Bucks franchise...

We don't want him.

Do you have a link of Herro talking "mad crap" about the Bucks?

I don't know what you mean by "you guys" but that sounds good too. The main point is making something around Herro and Ware.

Herro is a liability, no use for him other than leading the scoring in the second unit. But he makes too much money for that.
And Ware has some potential, gotta sell high before he turns into a bust.
