Interesting take considering the leading scorer in that game was Gary Trent jr... and the game winning shot was Halliburton calling for a pick to hunt Giannis.
I know the whole story but for sure there will be better offers than just Sengun, Cam and a first. No matter how much Giannis demands, Bucks won't accept such an offer if they aren't dumb. The deal without including Sengun and Amen is nearly impossible.
I watched the game. Gary Trent Jr. went off because the Pacers were doubling and tripling Giannis all night.
I am just saying to get them to the table. I actually meant 2 firsts but put 3. Having said that I wouldn't make the trade but one enticing thing is even though it seems like he has been in the league for a long time he is only 30. The thing is sengun will get better, gianis probably wont.
This is where I am. At one point, I thought about Sengun and 5 picks which is about what I think it would take, but after Jalen’s performance in the playoffs I’m less confident in giving up that much flexibility.
Guys saying this are talking out of their asses. Rockets are not trading Amen. Rockets might trade Sengun and picks for Giannis, but I’m not even sure that is on the table. Bucks don’t have the leverage to demand both Amen and Sengun, if Giannis wants out. You have been hating on Amen all year, which is a really weird obsession giving that he is the consensus best player on our team by most knowledgable basketball fans and coaches. Hell, the FO has pretty much said that Amen is untouchable. They have never said that about Sengun. Giannis, Sengun, and Amen do not fit unless one of Amen or Sengun become a 35+ 3pt shooter on mid volume. Amen ain’t going anywhere, so if Giannis is coming here it is for Sengun or Jalen plus a sh*tload of picks. I’m 100% behind getting Giannis for Sengun and a 2-3 picks and then packaging Jalen and 2-3 picks to upgrade our backcourt. FVV has to go in any scenario, because Ime will never take him out of the starting lineup. If you are acquiring Giannis you are building around him and Amen. If you don’t you are building around Amen and Sengun. Take your pick.
of course Giannis a lot is a lot better than Sengun, but Segun has more than a decade window left. Giannis prob has half that.
Uh-huh. Amen was -17 in the last game, which we lost by 3 points. The next worst player was Jalen, who was -11. Amen is -27 for the series overall. The team is demonstrably at its worst when he's on the floor. Let's revisit your narrative after tonight's game and see how tightly you're clinging to it then.
Every fan on this site know’s what a total sh*t stat that is. It never means anything. If you watched the game, Amen was great in the second half last night and should have been the one initiating the offense on the last play. He has played poorly (for him) in the playoffs and I attribute that to jitters for a guy who has not even started a full season of games. At the same time, FVV, Jalen, and Dillon have all crapped the bed even though all of them have 4 years + starting experience. Add to that how much better Amen is on the defensive side of the ball. You know nothing about basketball and pretty much anyone that uses on/off to make a point doesn’t either.
Neither Sengun or Green are franchise cornerstone pieces. They should both be on the table if the right deal or deals come along. We should Keep Amen, Bari and Tari for sure. Everything else should be on the table. If we have the chance to get Giannis we should absolutely pull the trigger without hesitation.
The Rockets won't offer both making deals with both impossible. As no other team has Sengun and Amen, the Bucks either have to keep Giannis or the only possible deals will not include both Sengun and Amen.
How old is Giannis? How old is Sengun? I wonder who are those morons voting yes.. Houston some fanbase=zero basketball knowledge
Same fan base that would clown on Greek Freak as overrated and Jokic to be unplayable before they both ascended.
How many MVP's does Sengun have? How many championships? How many 30/11/6 seasons? (In real basketball, not that bullshit Euro stuff)
