Houston Rockets favored to land Giannis

Yea but Giannis has a say so as well.

 

Idk man. If I am Bucks I am pretty much telling him its gonna be SA for 2nd pick. Besides I guarantee Giannis wants to come here to play with Amen, Sengun, Green, Jabari, and Tari. Not FVV, Brooks, and Adams. If we ship half of them off I doubt he would still want to come here. He'd probably try to find a way to LA before that

 

That’s not true, we got harden for one good draft pick and some filler, and tmac for very little. Also got cp3 for like one late first and filler.

 

Giannis is expensive
The question is HOW expensive
I am not willing to lose 3 starters for him (Plus Picks)

"I want to come play with a bunch of inexperienced non-shooters in a non glamour city for a team that lost in the first round"

- not a thing that Giannis Antetokotumpo is currently saying or wanting.

 

Well if thats the case then San Antonio has no chance. They haven't made the playoffs, Wemby's health is a question mark and they've just got an Inexperienced coach.

 

We gave up like 6 players for CP

 

ya, that's the "filler" part of the trade. Three of them are players nobody has ever heard of, two were irrelevant scrubs (harrell and decker), and 2 rotation guys that were ok but not starter quality

 

Beverley was part of that deal, right?

 

As long as we keep Sengun-Amen-Reed

 

One of the only dudes that turned it on the postseason for us (FVV/Amen/Adams)

 

ya he was one of the 2 rotation level guys (along with lou williams)

 

It doesn't make sense to include Jabari--he's only of only two guys (along with Reed) who has significant upside to become a 40% three point shooter. Literally every other member of our young core except Amen makes more sense in a package for Giannis.

 

Agreed. If you plan to build around giannis a lineup of Reed, upgrade at SG, amen, jabari, giannis should be the goal.

 

So Jabari is being traded for the guy that had his body type when he was 20.

 

If I'm Bucks, I'd might just ask for Tari, Bari, Cam, Reed, and picks. And one of FVV and Dillon for salary. Because building around a Jalen/Amen/Sengun, in some ways can be limiting, I rather search elsewhere for a centerpiece.



Would the Rockets me do? No dawg *hangs up the phone*

 

Sengun only if we only have to give up 1 pick, I'm okay with this.

 

Makes no sense that we would trade our only outside threat, but, of course, keeping him benched in the playoffs didn’t make sense either. If Sengun, is included in the trade no way I’m sending any other important player and no more than 2 picks. We have to have a way to put shooters around Giannis and Amen. If you give up a shooter, Sengun, and all our picks there is virtually no way to re-balance this roster. We should use our assets to replace FVV and maybe Jalen and add bench shooters and forget Giannis. Spacing is our issue and Giannis does not solve that.

 

If Giannis becomes way overpriced and would mean gutting the team, we should probably look into moving up in the draft instead. I hear the Sixers are shopping their 3rd pick
