I wish you all could read, not a single post have I said Giannis is the problem. Every post I've made about trading Giannis is based on the fact that I don't think the team can compete for a title anymore and thus trading everyone now extracts max value before next offseason when Dame Middleton and whoever else are worth 50% of what they are now and Giannis worth 20% less.

I'm going to quote so many posts Spring 2025 when we are ousted in the 2nd round and now everyone is worth nothing compared to what they are now. This team is on the edge of becoming as bad as PHX situation and only a handful of you can see it.

I never want to trade Middleton - I want him to be a Buck forever - but it would be interesting if a KM for KD trade came up, just because Giannis loves KM, but idolized KD.

But you think trading Giannis for for the Phoenix situation fixes our situation?

Nope but that's the non blow it up option. I think it's funny that everyone here thinks were going to put out a better team then

Nurkic
KD
MIddleton
Allen
Dame

If we go into next year looking better than that I will eat my words, but I highly doubt it. Has anyone been watching these games? It's embarrassing that Lopez is getting minutes in a playoff game and were starting Pat Bev at SG? lmao cmon people

Imagine questioning what games people are watching, and then pimping 2024 Jusuf Nurkic and Grayson **** Allen as playoff saviors for this team lmao. Like that has to be trolling right?

That’s before getting into the idea of trading a 29 year old Giannis for a 35 year old KD on the basis of trying to extract value, which is the dumbest **** I’ve seen on this board in a while.

Given the way KD throws teammates & coaches under the bus. And Khris being the polar opposite, lets go ahead & dig the grave of current iteration Bucks.

Giannis trades, woohoo. How about Kristaps & Jrue?

Brook is better right now than Nurkic
Giannis better than KD
Middleton is the same Middleton
Dame is the same Dame

So, your thought is Allen will be so drastically better than the wing/SG they get to replace beaz to make up the Giannis/KD and Brook/Nurkic difference? And that's of course forgetting that Giannis is 6-7 years younger than KD.

Our current team is better than that and you keep the superstar who's massively younger.

I'm all for exploring Brook and KM options. And there's no reason not to listen on what comes up for Dame too. But this idea framed around Giannis for KD is whack.

Trolls gonna troll, but that's not even a good troll. Let's take the team with the bleakest future in the NBA and make that our team.

Allen had a great shooting year also. Like with the bucks, he disappears many games and in the playoffs.

That team might give up 15,000 points.

That drama has been leaked at all this season is a massive change from the last three years, since Alex Lasry got removed from the organization.

It's not Hammond's fault. It's Kohl!


Owners are gonna meddle, it happens. If Griffin’s hiring was to keep Giannis happy then they made the best business decision. Unfortunately business still comes before basketball.


Yeah, Horst put out that article to save some face.

I keep repeating this but, Giannis did not wake up one morning and said **** you all I'll pick a random coach. The front office and by extension Horst, took supposedly a good hard look at the available coaches and came up with a final shortlist of supposedly championship-caliber coaches that somehow involved Adrian Griffin.

Giannis may have endorsed Griffin(not chose), but how the hell did our front office even think of putting Griffin in that list?

And if people remmeber, Nick Nurse pulled out before the actual process was complete, probably because at the time, coaching the 76ers looked like a better proposition(Embiid, Harden, Maxey).

And let's not forget that Nick Nurse with a healthy 76ers team is about to be gentleman swept by the Knicks, missing their starting center(Mitchell Robinson) and power forward(Julius Randle), and would be aleady swept if Embiid was thrown out of the game they won, as he should have been, for grabbing Robinson's feet and injuring him.

It's a pretty good go at looking at the worst problems with the team and making them significantly worse.

Darvin is a good coach who will inevitably be the next in a long list of Lebron scapegoat firings. There are definitely much worse outcomes than this.
