Which bucks trainer is in Greece with Giannis?

it looked like oppenheimer in that video

Yup. That's the shot doctor.

His release looks much more fluid. They put Oppenheimer to work right away. What a great job to have.

I think the Bucks are done with moves for now. They will probably leave that last roster spot open to save it for the buy out market. (Granted they could sign someone to a minimum contract now and cut DJ Wilson later on to make space)

They have Adams on the Heard as a 3rd PG that they could give a ten day contract to if they needed.

Diakite and Montgomery are on the two way contracts and both provide size and defense in case of emergency. Diakite is already 23 and can definitely fit well into a drop zone D after years in Bennett’s system.

Plus, DJ Wilson can spaz out some spot minutes at the four getting his weak dunk attempts rejected if they get desperate.

If Philly struggles out of the gate, would you do a deal for Embiid centered around Holiday & Middleton?

Actually no. If you're Bogdanovic you run quickly away from any deal with the Bucks, once the league stepped in.

The league will do an investigation. If he signed a contract/offer sheet this past weekend with the Bucks, that contract would likely be invalidated. Remember Bogdan and his agent also could face sanctions for negotiating and agreeing to a contract before last Friday's free agency opening. It isn't just the teams that would take sanctions. His agent also might get decertified by the league and players union.

At that point Bogdan would be a free agent, but all the money would have been spent and training camps well underway. Now he becomes like Noel, Sprewell, etc. A guy who had big money in front of them, but made some dumb decisions, and ended up getting screwed badly, never able to recover those lost dollars.

No way could Bogdan take a chance on a Bucks offer once the league stepped in last Tuesday night.

If the Kings match, I have a feeling a Bucks deal is still in play

League wouldn't be able to mess with it since it was a Hawks offer sheet and then a midseason trade

Kinda weird to have a no trade clause and a trade kicker that the Kings would have to pay

If they don't, it's really over.

It would be suicide for the Kings to let BB go. If they sign him, they have value to trade him going forward. He won't want to stay there, so he will waive the no trade clause and the trade kicker. Now if DD suddenly improves his offense, then don't make the deal. Otherwise, same deal except throw in Augustine instead of Ers.

Vin Baker is there as well as Oppenheimer.

Don't think the money works and No. That's a terrible deal for us.

A Baynes/Len/Boucher centre rotation is decent to me. Cost less than Lopez too (I think).

This is my assessment as well.

Batum is the only guy I would sign that is left in our price range...sounds like the Bucks are interested as well. We need his versatility off the bench.

Boogie would be an excellent buy low opportunity for us and excellent rehab his value for him. The timing is right.

Are we able to sign anyone else? I thought we didn't have any room financially?

G - Jrue/DDV
bench: DJ/Forbes/Pat/Merrill/Adams
F - Middleton/Giannis
bench: Batum/Portis/Craig/DJ/Nwora
C - Brook

Looks good to me.

Thankfully we have plenty of good young players and plenty of draft picks to offer
