IF I GO THERE WILL BE TROUBLLLLLE

But is it?

Shams has reported this a bunch of times before only for it to be false

It sounds like it’s League Sources telling ESPN how Giannis feels based on the letter of the tweet. That could be anything from “some guy thinks” to “Giannis directly told someone to tell espn”

Yeah this is actually substantial if they’re listening to offers now. Feels about as close as you can get to a trade request without Giannis coming out and personally demanding it.

Im just waiting till Giannis gets traded and then in his first press conference says that he never wanted out and pretends like he got Luka’d

We are the problem. 400 comments in less than 20 minutes. It gets engagement and that pays the bills.

I hope one of them is BBQ.

Please just keep him out of the West

Him asking out isn’t quite selling high.

I wouldn’t call this selling high, this season he got 2 injuries that will take him 4-6 weeks each, he has been getting injured even missing playoff games for years, he is 31, he also has 1 and a half years left and everyone knows Bucks have no leverage. Not to mention how he can probably choose his destination by saying “I ain’t extending there, I am only signing for these teams”

… all for Myles Turner lol.

Unless they get them back in the Giannis trade, the Bucks don’t control their own picks until 2031. Obviously they need to start rebuilding, but the future looks rough.

Lmao and we have 2. Not sure they should be trying to rebuild here but who are we to stop them!

The actual irony of him being traded to Portland. But I’d love that move tbh, always had respect for the Blazers. Small sports market solidarity.

Yeah I think it’s a 3 way swap again like this year except Pels get the most favorable and then Hawks get the 2nd most favorable out of the 3, and then Bucks get the remaining pick

Salary is the problem though.

Cool, and not a single one of those picks is as valuable to MIL as getting one of their own back

these guys are professionals at sounding competent and confident when you’re in the room with them. that, along with a little prestige behind the name (warranted or not) is all they need to swindle people.

You’re not wrong. A lot of it is because of someone they know that got them to where they are

Spo won 41 games with Dion Waiters as his best player

At least he got a decent contract out of the situation.

I mean the Bucks offered him a lot more money (4 yrs 107m vs 3 yrs 60m).

The Pacers also dangled him as a trade piece for like half a decade every deadline

Lol what? The Pacers used him as trade bait his entire fucking career basically. Then the guy finally says enough and it’s his fault?

Indy burnt the Myles Turner bridge bro. Booing that dude after he spent 10 years in Indy, got to a finals game 7 with em, and never talked shit about them(even though constant trade rumors). Now Indy is standing around like “please we need a center who can stretch and play defense” when all it woulda took was $26m AAV is silly.

aj green erasure

tyler herro for the millionth time lol

Up until the Micah Parsons trade, the Heat remind me of the Green Bay Packers of the NBA when it comes to big name trade targets and free agents.

They always say they are “in the mix” for offers, but always turns out they massively low ball everyone and say “welp we tried”.

Normally I’d agree, but Miami has been hoarding all of their players specifically for this moment. They weren’t willing to give up on players like Herro and Ware in the past because they would be necessary pieces in this exact scenario.

To be clear, I don’t think Miami ends up with Giannis at the end of this, but it won’t be because they weren’t willing to part with anyone. I think Riley knows everyone is on the table in this deal. We’re just going to get outbid.

We’ll get Thanasis as Giannis goes to the Knicks or some bullshit.

Because of the new CBA smh

Can’t wait to see some of the trade ideas they come up with in that mouth breather sub. “Sochan, olynyk, and Barnes plus a frp. Who says no?”

Kind of wanna see Giannis and Wemby just hand off the ball to each other, over everyone else

why would they give up anything for him they have an extreme young core thats 2nd seed no way unlesss its just picks and players they really dont use then id see it. Rockets have the picks and bum players to trade. Lakers dont really have the assets till summer and extend Austin. New York knicks have the assets and are in a position for a change with kat.

I have been saying… Fox can be traded on the 4th and the bucks don’t own a lot of their own picks… So they won’t want to tank

Or won’t we?

12th now. Hornets is currently above them lol.

And if they’re going to have a tank year it NEEDS to be this season. They have pick swaps until 2029

Technically they have swaps on this pick too but it’s complicated so they should keep their pick this year or get New Orleans depending on which one worse (Atlanta gets the better one)

7th time since this time last week lmao

People’s memories are just wrong. There has never been headlines like this
