What a duo of sorry losers are Morey and Hinkie! Philly drafted Holiday and had him develop into an All-Star, only for Hinkie to trade him for two picks that amounted to nothing (Nerlens Noel and Elfrid Payton). Now, the "Grandmaster" Marley is desperately trying to get him back, except nobody wants to trade with him, because everyone has realized that he’s a manipulative sleaze bag and everyone hates him, including the player who made his career. Pathetic losers, destroyed the 76er franchise.
I think you're confused. That describes the Rockets front office to a tee. Pick one of them - any of them - it still fits.
Jrue 19 pts per game. . . probably gives up 7 a game Dame 32 pts a game . . . probably gives up 20 a game Meh People talk about Dame in the PnR but mane Lopez and Giannas will have their hand full with the two matadors in the backcourt Rocket River
Guard defense isn’t THAT important really, though they will be hurt on that end for sure. One thing people are selling short though is that Jrue is an absolutely horrendous offensive player in the playoffs, he just can’t play in the post season. Giannis isn’t jokic, he’s not an elite offensive by himself, so when you have a complete zero on offense at PG it’s really tough, that’s why their offense always sucks in the playoffs. Dame isn’t a playoff guy either but his base level is soooooo much higher, and giannis should help him also
On the PnR, one thing I'm interested is if next season's Lilard/Giannis' PnR stats is comparable (better) than last season's Harden & Embid. While Giannis can roll, Lopez can roll also, and is the one, who can do some pop. Bucks can get creative, but the PnR is not a given.
If Bucks come out flat at beginning of season, some of the excuses are already baked. "New head coach in Adrian Griffin" "Need time to gel between Dame and Giannis"
What do you mean Dame isn't a playoff guy? Are you talking about his individual performance? Or are you talking about not reaching a Finals or multi WCF trips which is a team effort? His individual career PO stats are solid, and his ability to take(and sometimes hit) clutch shots are highly valued in the postseason Pairing prime Giannis with a capable guard of scoring 30+ per night is what Bucks needed with a hopeful healthy Middleton as a third wheel gives them a strong two year window to make something happen, if they are healthy and can't reach at least ECF in this two year window then Giannis is going elsewhere(maybe Rockets; a long shot but anything's possible) Giannis should be able to focus more energy on defense as well, he doesn't need to be Jokic on offense, but can still get 25+ ppg with his limited offensive arsenal plus with annual DPOY potential
The whole MIL team is difficult to watch on offense in the playoffs. It has to improve now with Dame. and Jrue will benefit playing with a playmaking co-star at his next stop, wherever that is: Bam? LeBron? Sabonis? …. Sengun?
He’s not someone who’s game will improve in the playoffs against better defenses, which is fine, that’s how most players are. He regresses some. Still a massive upgrade on offense
Am I suppose to feel sympathy for him? Allegedly Miami had a better deal and also Dame rescinded his trade demand but he chose to be petty. Please STFU GM.
