Any word on the pick's possible protection?? I'm torn atm, if Giannis misses a month we are picking into the top-8.

Bench is still bad, but this makes your team

Bledsoe
Brogdon
Middleton
Giannis
trash

Snell moving to the bench is a good move - he's much better as a 6th/7th/8th man than starter.

The biggest impact this will have will be on Middleton - he doesn't have to try to be a creator aside from Giannis or Bledsoe, and can get back to his bread and butter finding his spots on the floor (I hope). Monroe is a good player on a team with creators and playmakers. The Bucks had 1.5 of those this year, making getting Bledsoe super important.

I honestly thought pretty highly of the Monroe expiring contract and what it could bring in a deadline deal..and first round picks are assets....in that you can't hit a home run if you don't have an at-bat.

We'll see how this turns out, but I have my reservations about giving up too much.

We absolutely have to move Delly now. Paying that much for third string point guard is completely insane (which we have been doing, but now Delly actually IS the third stringer we all thought he was)

An impact PG was badly needed, but I can't help but be pessimistic until I see some improvement from the coaching. It won't be any more fun to watch Bledsoe be out of sorts on defense than it was to watch Moose do the same.

With Giannis I don't see us in the lottery in the East for a long time so how is this risky??


Presumably he's saying if Giannis gets hurt.

Pick better be protected.

i think it might be best for the team to move Brogdon to the bench to work with the others.....and create.

have Bledsoe start with Snell, Midds, Giannis and Henson.....and finish games with Bledsoe, Brogdon, Snell, Midds, Giannis

The idea is if Giannis gets hurt this team will tumble into the lottery.


hopefully mrs. antetokounmpo dipped giannis in the river styx twice

For the protections, if it's just top 3 protected you should be covered by the off chance they end up like 9th due to a Giannis injury and somehow win the lottery.

Now, will Kidd adjust the offense and let them run some Giannis/Bledsoe PnR or will we keep the same high post crap going

Then the Bucks can swoop in with the Delly/Telly/Thon/Wilson poopoo platter for the Cousins sloppy seconds. :eyebrows: :eyebrows:

Any concerns about pushing Brogdon off the ball?

I know he's had his moments, but I don't really think he's that good of a creator off the dribble. I think he'll move pretty seamlessly to the SG spot.
