I wonder how Giannis feels right now. Happy?

 

[Reality Check]

Sucks for Miami and Philadelphia. But I think Portland did OK and this makes sense for Milwaukee right now.

Those draft picks could be brutal for Milwaukee down the line though.

 

[BobColesNasalCavity]

Wow. Giannis and Dolla Dame??

Blazers can flip Jrue now for more.

Giannis and Dame Time? That’s a good duo.
Front office got the word from Giannis that he wants this team to be contenders and voila.

Amazing deal for Milwaukee

 

[Voight]

Giannis said he might leave unless the Bucks are serious about remaining contenders, a week later they go for Dame.

Much like 2020 when he was iffy about signing a max deal, they went out and traded for Holiday + others to show him they were serious about winning a championship.

Portland held out and cried about Miamis offer to accept that trash lol. Ayton is awful

 

[BB88]

Did not see this coming based on all the offseason comments

I guess they heard Giannis

 

[Terry Yake]

seems like giannis meant what he said about leaving and the bucks were listening. it'll be neck to neck between the bucks and celtics in the east

blazers should look to flip jrue and miami should be all over it

In cap friendly language:

 

[MMC]

cope Jimmy

 

[GKJ]

Giannis got any more questions?

 

[Big Poppa Puck]

So they threw Nurkic as well and got nothing back. I'm sure they'll flip Holiday for another 1st, and lottery ticket type guys but still.

Woulda been better off with Herro and what ever else Miami offered.

The NBA always delivers with these big trades.

Great for Milwaukee obviously. Not sure what to make of it for Portland, I guess they REALLY like Ayton and I have no idea what the Suns are doing.

 

[Breakers]

This franking league never ceases to amaze
LOL
The drama

I LOVE IT.

Drew holidays defensive rating is still amazing
That is gonna be a huge loss is his ability to cover wings.

Not sure I like it for Milwaukee as they have a new coach and new superstar
If they got rid of Middleton instead of holiday then this would be amazing.
Just too much change in one offseason.

The Sixers should be all over it too.

The Suns had to lose salary because they can barely put a team on the floor.

The Sixers should be all over it too.

The Process comes full circle.

This league

 

[No Fun Shogun]

The NBA remains the most fun league to watch from a free agency/trade perspective.

He was the first to go, wasn’t he?

 

[GKJ]

He was the first to go, wasn’t he?

Yeah, he was traded for Nerlens Noel and what became Dario Saric

Not sure how Butler is claiming “tampering”

The only one guilty of “tampering” was Lillards frigan agent essentially tanking his value with his quotes.

So happy he didn’t get his preferred destination. Couldn’t stand what his agent came out and said.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Not sure how Butler is claiming “tampering”

He ate a big bowl of sour grapes.

All there is to it.
