I wonder what trade Chad said we had in place, cause rn it looks like everything good is being taken up by everyone else.

Let’s chill & wait for Pat’s move
If u don't want 2b here, the way things work, u don't like it, then don't b here. U have 2 stand on something. If Miami ain't standing on something, they become alot of these organizations trying 2 find their identity. This is the culture, bro -Wade

Milwaukee, Brooklyn, Boston, Toronto, Indiana and Philly all would still be on a similar level to us. So you're probably still looking at a 4-5 seed.

Now, if we can add Beal PLUS maintain Giannis flexibility, well....that's different. You have to look at that.



It's really simple.

Jimmy, Bam, Beal, Harden, Giannis, Kawhi - they all make or will make around 25-30% of the cap, depends on a few factors.

There's no way to have 4 of these names on our roster.

If you want to keep Bam and Jimmy - you can only add 1 more Max-ish player.

Pick your 3 names and go for it.

Agreed.

We shouldn't overpay for Beal, he ain't a MVP player.

Need to hope the Bucks implode and Giannis leaves next year, they made some good moves but who knows maybe it doesn't work out for them.

If we can't get him, Maybe Kawhi leaves if Clippers implode.

If not, Maybe trade for Harden or Beal down the line for a lesser package.

I agree, if that's all we manage while other teams are doing what needs to be done to get the whales we're not sniffing another Finals for a while imo.

Honestly wishing Giannis and the Bucks nothing but failure for the rest of his career.

The damn Bucks gave wayy too much for Jrue but with him and with Bogdan they really improved. Those moves might lock Giannis for good.
the East keeps getting better and i wonder what kind of moves we gonna make now if any..

James Harden has to be the greatest player in this era (2000-2020ish) to demand to be traded with 2 full years remaining in the contract??? AD was close but he did in the middle of the szn rather awkwardly.

I don't think Harden has that much leverage here. Houston will trade him to the team that offers the best package at the end of the day. We can, and we should be able to outbid the Net and Sixers. I'm not sure he'll be that opposed to playing for the NBA finalist either :dontknow:

The Bucks just built a slightly better version of last years team. It still has the same exact weaknesses (lack of a go-to half court scorer, lack of half court playmaking) but more talent. Maybe they can out-talent being out schemed but I’m not sold.

Well, not losing their franchise player might be an option as well, just saying

:lol:

Maybe those trades were so Giannis would stay and the Bucks have a chance at a title.

To spite Miami :lol:

Your move, Pat. Check, raise or fold.


Time to fold.

If every team is selling the farm for non superstars, we better just wait it out.

we aint about to give 12 picks for Jrue type players.

It's either Giannis or Kawhi in free agency or wait for a bargain deal.

Do NOT give Gallo a guaranteed second year.

Can't risk losing Giannis/Kawhi/Max pace if he gets hurt and we can't move him.
