    He can't shoot or score. That dude is back up point guard and I don't want him in Houston.

    "Hey, it's Milwaukee, we have no trade assets on offer, and we see you lost your acclaimed GM and your franchise is a COVID19 dumpster fire - mind if we strip your few remaining semi-valuable trade pieces whlle you implode and do nothing to solve your larger problems and in fact make them even worse?"

    I mean, even Pat Fertitta wasn't born yesterday bros.

    Also, think of waht an actually focused Daryl would do in this situation. He'd structure somethign wacky like trading conditional high future picks from the Bucks if/when Giannis leaves. The thought of Morey operating in a full carte blanche rebuild or reload with the league in pandemic turmoil brings a tear to my eye.

    Thank God there's no mention that the Rockets are entertaining this idea at all yet. I'd imagine these talks stall super fast when the Bucks realize they'd need to give one of their core back and not a chicken wing dinner + very low draft picks for us to even truly consider. At least I'd hope to God we're not that foolish.. otherwise we've got darker times ahead than I realized.

    I’m sure the Bucks do have interest in both of those players. It doesn’t mean they will get either of them though. This is a no real news report to me. Fake news :D

    It's not a firesale just yet, there are still forces that intend to keep the group together on the surface.

    But could easily turn this year or next year.

    I bet they do. I’ve said if they thin out their center personnel of Brook Lopez, Robin Lopez and Ilyasova for wings; they could be a true top contender. Giannis played 14% of the Bucks minutes at center and was a 38 PER.
    Allowing the opposing center to a 16 PER.

    Giannis was a 39 PER while playing PF.

    Middleton next to Harden would be like a dream come true.

    I'm not sure that's a bad thing. When the sharks circle, there is a better chance they starting fighting each other for the prey...

    they are NOT trading middleton. giannis would be gone for sure. he was already pissed they let brogdon go. lol @ trading middleton for roco and tucker. they may as well blow it up if thats the plan.

    Realistically though, I doubt they move Middleton.

    He's a more talented Patrick Beverly. You'd be a idiot to not want a elite defender next to Harden

    Did you not watch the playoffs? Russ can't shoot and either can Bledsoe. That will not get us far in the playoffs.
