If Kings match Bogdan, is it tampering to already start discussing the framework for a trade for when he's able to be moved? I know that's unrealistic, I'm just curious.

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

I like that trio too, but they do cost more than Brook. They used there entire MLE on Baynes and Len, plus Bouchers deal starts at over $6 million.

So is Batum going to round out the roster for us?

Really want Nic Batum, apparently lost 20 pounds or so and and is in much better shape. If he's back to 18-19 level that's a really nice bench piece

You mean you don't want the guy he was last year, with a 45TS%?

Getting back into shape would do him wonders, and he can still defend. If he really wants to extend his career, he should toughen up and start playing the 4.

If he does, that will complete NBA2K17's predictions for me. Marvin Williams and Batum were constantly getting traded to my Bucks team.

Horst needs to get Lucky I think he is best wing available if he's all the way healthy and down 20+ pounds

Pretty wild. Khris Middleton joined the team 34 days after Giannis too. So its basically them and then DJ Wilson? Is that right? Lol

Haven't Giannis and Middleton been among our longest tenured Bucks for a while now?

Technically, with Ersan leaving multiple times they are but going back in time he had a longer history with the franchise.

Okobo might be worth a look. I liked him as a prospect. He's a weird one to gauge because watching him the past two years there's nothing glaring that he's bad at but there's never really anything to be excited about either. Just generally meh. But good size and has some shooting potential. He's definitely better suited as a combo type because I doubt he ever has the feel for the game to succeed as a pure point.

Who's the last player we had other than Ilyasova that was on the Bucks before Giannis' draft?

The exclamation point in this title is the saddest damn thing ever.

What is the Bucks depth chart looking like right now?

Some disagreement about starting Jrue at PG, but I think it will be:

Holiday / Augustin
DiVincenzo / Forbes / Merrill / Adams (2W)
Middleton / Connaughton / Nwora
Giannis / Craig / Thanasis
Lopez / Portis / Wilson / Diakite (2W)

I'd say we need another wing but man there is a large sized hole behind Lopez right now. Interested to see what we do there.

The avg. height in the 2nd unit is 6'4.5. Seems short if they go that route, although minutes do get staggered.

Bring back Bender.

Post #1619 » by **Prez** » Tue Nov 24, 2020 1:25 am

Yeah they need to find a big/physical 3/4 type and eject Wilson into space imo
