Probably because he demanded a trade from Portland to Miami and only Miami, not hard to read between the lines

I could not just as easily draw that conclusion.

I could not draw that conclusion even in the most tortured of reasoning.

Excellent post. I still want a real GM G league for posters. I haven't finalized the criteria, but a starting point may be any poster who:

1) proposes trading Giannis
2) Claims Allen was an elite player
3) The Bucks never should have gotten rid of McCarthy. I mean Ditka. Sorry, I mean Bud.

Dame might get more benefit of the doubt that maybe he's just not playing well or that he's lost a step if he had not been so hell bent on going to Miami and saying he would refuse a trade anywhere but Miami.

In July, Dame's agent literally sent a message to the rest of the NBA warning them against trading for Dame if they weren't the Miami Heat.

That actually happened.

Dame ends up getting sent to Milwaukee right before training camp and looks (and plays) like he wants no part of being there.

If you can't grasp what is going on here almost 60 games into the season, you are the definition of willfully ignorant.

He's also friends with Bam, probably saw how the Heat played last year, figured he could take them to another level... I think the entire situation in Miami seemed like a great fit and his mind was set on it, so it wasn't just the off court stuff. It would be naive to think the nightlife wasn't a big factor, but I'm not convinced that he's playing worse because he doesn't want to be here. Just feels like the old Milwaukee inferiority complex coming out.

But hey, it's all just speculation. I'm sure he has a lot of mixed feelings with everything going on.

Usually in the playoffs coaches try to find weak links in the opponent's defense. In our case they will get confused should they go for

Lillard, Beasley, Bobby, Pat, any of the young guys, Middleton

IDK if Dame is dogging it because he doesn't want to be here for whatever reason or if he's just that bad of fit, either way its not a good sign going forward and you can draw similar conclusion.

!. there are no players i wouldnt trade because trading players you get stuff back unlike firing coaches it depends on the return.
2. i suggested allen was an elite SHOOTER. hes in fact leading the league. so that was more of a fact than opinion.
3. i proposed the bucks shouldnt have gotten rid of bud. that one i shrieked about the day we did it which makes me look like the smartest guy here. if youre still unconvinced then my god

hopefully that clarifies my positions. and dont feel bad misrepresenting some of them everybody is guilty of that here from time to time. but lets agree to not respond to each other. i dont view you as a basketball mind or the type that even ever played.... and thats all ok no big deal... its just the attitude i can do without.'

so again...lets agree not to respond to each other? cool? or are you still not cool? is it always going to be like this with you?

i viewed bud as the treasure that unleashed giannis and quite frankly the team around him to our first championship in 50 years.

and the "millstone of playoff underacheivement" is the term you use to descibe the guys who havent won a chip.... not the very very very few that have.

just my take. and nothing personal ever with it

You aren't dumb, but when you say things like unleashing Giannis, and he was 6th MOTY, all star and all NBA under Kidd....

Hey, the same could be said about Doc.

Those Hawks teams were regular season titans and playoff patsies. Bucks blew playoff leads to the Celts and Raps and lost to the Heat in an historic collapse. That's Bud's postseason rep.

BUT they also won one. That's a certifiable BFD.

he was a numbers guy with kidd and a champion and two time mvp under bud.

now hes a numbers guy again and the straw polling on the mvp race and our team success proves it

and yeah i said hes a numbers guy now. thats not dumb. its dead ass on point and its why this board is so pissed about this year and its why im not. i had months to prepare for this **** because i **** called it day one the day he got fired
