I don't know value of draft compensation yet, but Bledsoe is a pretty bad fit for this team, he's combo guard without proper offball skills in a team that needs ... proper offball skills to build around Ingram, Zion and Ball.

Jrue will help somewhat, but not that much.

Underwhelming move IMO. CP3 would have been better.

Three 1st round picks is pretty steep for Jrue, who probably still won't put Milwaukee over the hump. Could've gotten CP3 for cheaper

Pelicans gambling that Giannis walks in 2021 or 2023 after a 1+1

I'm sorry but the Bucks got ripped off long term. This better come with a Giannis contract extension or that franchise is screwed.

Man it makes the Lakers Schroder trade look amazing.

I know Holiday >>> Schroder but when you compare cost....

Bucks just handicapped themselves from making any other significant moves to bring any other help for Giannis by giving up that much. Basically have no assets left

It was a must do for Bucks... might just get Giannis to sign supermax but damn Griff... 3 firsts and 2 swaps? That's a hefty return of picks.

Presti, Griffin, and Ainge competing for pick accumulation.

It looks like Bucks gave as much for Jrue Holiday as Nets are able to give for Harden, lol.

There's way too much disaster potential for Milwaukee right now. I get that they're not mortgaging their future for Jrue Holiday, they're doing it in a effort to keep Giannis, but if he leaves it's going to get ugly there.

LOL, bleak future when Giannis says dueces.

Unless Giannis in on it and said "do this and I resign"
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

Comments on page 1 got outdated real fast with news of the picks breaking. Hope Giannis at least agrees to a 1+1 to cushion the blow of losing all those picks

Yea holy crap. Not worth it for Jrue Holiday. Hes good but how much will he really move the needle? For haul like that I demand Jaxson Hayes be thrown in

Man Milwaukee better pray Giannis re-signs because they will be undertaking a long ass rebuild if he bolts. They had to do this though good on them for not standing pat.
