should the bucks trade for Bol Bol? He's a huge gamble, but he's probably better than BroLo and can block shots. His potential is being wasted on the Nuggets.

I actually like that idea a lot, but do we have anything they would want that would also financially work? They'd probably want DDV or a 1st for Bol Bol would be my guess.

Saw this on REDDIT:

Despite being 6'10" and playing in the NBA for 11 seasons, Steve Novak has never dunked in an NBA game. He was asked to compete in the 2012 NBA Dunk contest
From this great article by Sports Illustrated about NBA players who can't dunk. https://www.si.com/nba/2021/02/22/nba-non-dunkers-patty-mills-tj-mcconnell-steve-novak-daily-cover

During the peak of Linsanity, the NBA wanted to capitalize by having one of Lin's teammates in the contest so that Lin could be incorporated into the show. Initially Landry Fields was supposed to jump over Lin on a futon, but had to drop out because of an injury. JR Smith was next in line, but he subsequently dropped out as well because of an inured ankle. The NBA then desperately asked Novak, who of course had never dunked, to participate. He declined the offer.

What might be even crazier about Novak is that he only attempted 16 layups in his NBA career, and 78% of his field goal attempts were 3's

If I was Horst I would try to bring in Kenneth Faried until the summer. I don't know if it is financially affordable but it can be a good move. Have him play at 5 from the bench and move Portis to 4. It can be a risky move due to his lack of playing time, but he is not crazy old (31 yo), he is a free agent and I believe he has more to offer than Tucker at the moment. Plus he can be a good match up for Jordan in a possible encounter with the nets in the playoffs. Decent defender, better rebounder than Lopez throughout his career and a great lob catcher. Again, I don't know if that would be affordable but seems like a nice move given the fact that he will be motivated to show that he deserves a nba contract.

He can't even get into a defensive stance, and the result is terrible defensive stats.

Brook, even now, is still considerably better.

20.41 DPS
+2.9 Defensive RAPTOR
.76 DRAPM
2.11 D-LEBRON
1.9 DBPM
1.5 PP100 better with Cousins on the floor

He doesn't have "terrible defensive stats." There is literally one catch all number that doesn't really like him and it's DRPM. This isn't the first time you've said something like this, given you were doing the same RE: Zubac last week. Do you just expect people to not check these things?

What's his DORT?

Its luguen(tz) pretty good

[jakecronus8]

Does KP being super close with Giannis change any perception of him and a possible Bucks deal?

Can't see any deal possible. He's probably worth expirings and a first and we don't have either.

[Prez]

Not saying I wouldn’t do it, but 3yr/102mil for KP after this season doesn’t sound great to me. I’m not sure he’s worth that money when healthy, let alone with all the injury concerns and strong likelihood that he won’t be available when it matters.

No Middleton on the AS team. Not surprising given the recent bad stretch.

It’s ok, he gets paid like a superstar so all good.

[tydett]

Eh, probably doesn't matter to Midds (since nothing else does) and I'd still rather have Middleton at his best (not his poopy play the last week and a half) over at least 5 of those reserves

He's having his best season yet.

[smauss]

Is there any way we could pry Brunson away from the Mavs? I've loved his game since nova.

Nets get 3 all stars, Boston gets 2, Philly gets 2? But Khris can’t get a nod? What a joke

[Plossum]

I dunno, the guys that got in over Midds all seems deserving and having great seasons. Vuc is the close one but it’s not outrageous.

Yea lot of dudes putting up really impressive numbers. Bucks aren't standing out like the last two years so wont get any extra consideration.

I just find it funny that he's having the best season of his career, but didn't make it. Yet he made it in 2018-2019, when he didn't deserve to (Bledsoe and Brogdon deserved it more, just from the Bucks alone).

Actually am very surprised by this.

So Craig and his DNPs are definitely getting traded right? DJW too, but him getting DNP’d is normal
