@BSA545 @TheDunkCentral @ramonashelburne You don't think Giannis is worthy of those two players? He still has some talent.

@TheDunkCentral @ramonashelburne Bucks really asked for Evan Mobley or VJ Edgecombe as the centerpiece for Giannis?! 😭🔥 Mobley = DPOY candidate VJ = future superstar That’s not a trade ask… that’s “we’re keeping Giannis forever” energy 😂

The Bucks reportedly wanted VJ Edgecombe from the Sixers or Evan Mobley from the Cavs for Giannis Antetokounmpo, per @ramonashelburne “The players the Bucks did seem interested in were younger building blocks such as VJ Edgecombe of the Philadelphia 76ers or Evan Mobley of the Cleveland Cavaliers, sources said.” (Via espn.com/nba/story/_/id…)

@AbiolaAutos @TheDunkCentral What are you even talking about? The Bucks have a business to run. If Giannis leaves in free agency with no return the team will be the biggest joke in the NBA. But the big problem is getting something in return for him.

This is the kind of "just business" logic that sounds reasonable until you realize it's an owner publicly floating the idea of trading a franchise icon before he's even decided to leave. The Bucks didn't win a title because of shrewd asset management they won because Giannis stayed when he didn't have to. Treating loyalty like an expiring contract is how you ensure no star trusts your franchise again.

Bucks owner Wes Edens says Giannis Antetokounmpo will be traded if he doesn’t accept an extension 😳 “Giannis is going into the last year [of his contract]. So one of two things will happen: Either he will be extended or he'll be traded. The likelihood you'll let him just kind of play out the last year, we can't afford that. It's not consistent with what's good for the organization. That's not a Giannis issue. That's any player that's in their last year.” (Via @ramonashelburne / h/t @RealGM , espn.com/nba/story/_/id…)

@TonyKastner34 @MatthewMKE98 Lefleur is basically Lindy Infante. Get ready for his first losing season. He is not a leader.of men.

@MatthewMKE98 LeFleur doesn’t belong on this list… he’s not Lombardi or Holmgren… but doesn’t belong on a list with the misery that is Luke and Doc

Luke Fickell Matt Lafleur Greg Gard Doc Rivers Who has it worse than us

@bkfleischhauer @Matt_Peterss @Peter_Bukowski All three of them will be out the first 6 games. Gonna be an awfully long season.

@Matt_Peterss @Peter_Bukowski Imagine adding Micah Parsons, Tucker Kraft and Devonte Wyatt to that team that “finished more or less 14th overall”

Nah I’m not falling for this one

@Peter_Bukowski In what shape or form do you think we are better than 14? If you look at the talent on other teams as a whole instead of being bias, you will see that we lack talent at the majority of positions.

@nathanmarzion Good job Nathan. Am I only seeing one loss so far? I have two losses.

@RingoSZN @Jordann15118531 You serious? Giannis was in on all of those decisions.

@Jordann15118531 What moves are you referencing here? Dame trade wasn’t Giannis Dame waive wasn’t Giannis Khris trade wasn’t Giannis Doc still being a coach wasn’t Giannis The only pressure he put on the FO is being competitive, which any great player should want his org to be competitive imo

if im jon horst, im trading giannis this offseason to the the magic for paolo banchero. I would then draft Darius Acuff . Then I would flip Bobby Portis + GTJ for Daniel Gafford. Darius, Rollins, Ousmane, Paolo and Gafford.

@SleeperBucksNBA @ChrisBHaynes There is nothing they can do. No tradeable assets. They basically need 3-4 players that can actually play ball.

The offseason talk has begun. According to @ChrisBHaynes, Giannis "can be convinced" to stay—but only if the Bucks build a winner. What does the front office have to do this summer to keep Giannis in Milwaukee?

@WA_TigerGirl @lcd_dont_Lie2Me @Bitcoin_Teddy Don't forget tattoos and streaming and cell phone payments. Oh yeah and running up all of their credit cards thinking it is free money.

They also have to say “no” to lattes every day, a new car, designer handbags/purses, eating out, fancy vacations every year, etc. Learn to save that money instead. Eat at home, even if it’s ramen and beans & rice. Make a budget, and stick to it. There is no shame in saving to make your life better; but that means there may not be a lot of fun or luxuries while you are doing it. BUT - it will pay off for you in the long run.

Older generations say “we all struggled in our 20s.” No, you didn’t. You didn’t pay $3200 for rent and $10 for eggs. You didn’t graduate into $50K student debt and $0 job security. Gen Z isn’t dramatic. They’re drowning.

@AustinKrueger_ Yeah keep believing that the Packers will be good. And then by the end of the year when they finish 6-11 you will see what we were all talking about.

Seeing a lot of “Packers didn’t get better” discourse - St. Juste > Hobbs (in zone, tackling & helps outside CB need) - Hargrave > Wooden (obviously) - Zaire > Quay (especially for the $) - Golden/Watson/Kraft/Reed > Romeo (target consolidation to higher upside players)

@KevinPorterMVP And if she went against Thanasis she wouldn't even get a shot off.

Thanasis makes 2x that

@BleedGreenPGold That second pass was to Mark Ingram. It is by far the best and hardest throw ever. The windows was so tight with fingers crossing from the left and the right. If any of those fingers had touched the ball they would have been broken.

Brett Favre might have the strongest arm in NFL history He TELEPORTED footballs

@HiddenNBA Jalen Brunson

Which Superstar is most likely to NEVER win a Championship? Jalen Brunson Luka Dončić Donovan Mitchell Anthony Edwards

@davidyounf @LegionHoops @eric_nehm And whoever he gets traded to will flunk his physical.

@LegionHoops @eric_nehm Maxx Crosby 2.0 - player won’t publicly demand the trade. Team will dangle while also not truly engaging in trade talk. Rinse and repeat.

REPORT: There’s an “expectation” that Giannis trade talks will ramp back up again this summer, per @eric_nehm. Buckle up. The saga continues.

@LegionHoops @eric_nehm Unfortunately they won't get much for him. Not even sure we can get Bancheiro for him at this rate.

@Balldontlie Where is that money coming from? They have been in the red every year of their existence. Now the write off is gonna be triple.

The WNBA league minimum jumped up by about $234K 😳 📈

@IafornaroSean @flasportsbuzz Nobody wants that bum.

@flasportsbuzz If Orlando puts Paolo on the table that beats any offer Miami can come up with

So the Milwaukee Bucks, wanting to enhance lottery chances and protect an asset, want to shut down Giannis and he's refusing, as The Athletic and ESPN reported in past 30 minutes. What is keeping him from simply saying the words "It's best we go our separate ways and in trade talks, please convey that I would only sign an extension with teams, X, Y, Z"? A year of all this nonsense because he can't bring himself to that, which is admirable in some ways, I suppose. Heat will keep trying to acquire him this summer.

@DeanDealer_10 @flasportsbuzz There was a point last year where I thought his game was gravitating towards longevity as he was consistently hitting his midrange. Well this year that midrange jumper is nowhere to be seen.

@flasportsbuzz I hope the heat are smart and don’t give the farm for this guy. His injuries are a big concern and his whole game is based off strength and athleticism. No true skill set. I think him and the bucks fumbled and should have traded him earlier.

@KevinPorterMVP @OusOnTheLoose I agree! They would be my picks.

@OusOnTheLoose Pete, Kuz, Rollins, kpj, ous Are the only ones that should be on the bucks roster

Who do you think will still be on the Bucks next season?

@DanRShafer At this point Giannis is already irritated. You can clearly see it by his body language. Maybe it will be the tip of the iceberg and he will finally request a trade. Although at this point it probably won't be much considering he is worth at most 60 games of health these days.

It doesn't make any practical sense for the Bucks to shut down Giannis, since they won't be able to out-tank DAL-NOP-MEM for better draft odds, and are too far behind Charlotte to make the play-in, even if he plays. All this would seem to do is needlessly irritate Giannis. Great.
