OT The Giannis Sweepstakes (6 Viewers)

[BlazerWookee]

Jesus Christ Almighty, what an obnoxious person. And how is it bigotry?

 

[Cugel]

I am convinced he will be a Laker. Reaves, change, unprotected frp and a swap or two.

Not to mention a promise from Silver on future lottery odds.

 

[THE HCP]

Was there not an official press release about what Giannis’ injury is? Can’t find it.

 

[THE HCP]

It looked bad though. Like he knew immediately it was not right.

I posted a video breaking down the most likely injury...idk about official press release with details other than "calf injury" to be re-evaluated in 2-4wks

That’s what’s confusing. Understandable that every injury is different, but when somebody pulls a calf or hammy, they limp around…..my man went STRAIGHT DOWN like something tore or ripped. Just hate seeing anybody go down like that.

warriors media speculating that they could be in for giannis is the most adorable thing ever.

The best case scenario is that he just hyperextended it..hopefully it's not a rupture or tear

If it’s a rupture it’s worse case scenario for Bucks, Gianis value drastically drops and don’t believe he can be traded till he returns from injury?

You know if MIL does the deal with ATL they will get the first overall pick via NOP .

The Giannis Antetokounmpo trade market: What's the best deal for all 30 teams?

What could each team offer the Bucks for the former champion?

sports.yahoo.com

Portland Trail Blazers​

The deal: Jerami Grant, Deni Avdija, Matisse Thybulle, Scoot Henderson, and all of Milwaukee's picks and swaps back for Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jericho Sims, Thanasis Antetokounmpo and Amir Coffey

This is all about future control, which is what Portland can offer. The Blazers give back Milwaukee their picks, which allows the Bucks to dictate their own terms. Make no mistake, this is a far more attractive offer for the Bucks than the vast majority of deals presented.

Quality: A

Likelihood: 4/5

[JfizzleBlazer]

That is terrible. I'd think the first step would be to swap Deni with Camara. I'm still not sure i'd do that but it would be more palatable.

Swap Camara with RW3 and it definitely becomes interesting. At that point they may want Sharpe instead of Scoot.

Here's something.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

A rigorous examination would obviously have to be done - any red flags in the physical would nix
any deal.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

OKC throws in a few picks to the Bucks (perhaps the Clippers' pick this year?)


Why would OKC do this, given how well Hartenstein has played for them? Well, Bam is better, and also I read somewhere that there's some salary quirk that means they would not be able to re-sign him at the end of his contract.

Scary, huh?

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Somebody explain EXACTLY what we have of Milwaukee's. Is it picks? Is it swaps? What years? What protections? Is it really that valuable to Milwaukee? Doesn't that depend what they get for Giannis? I mean, they beat Detroit in Detroit without him...

We have the right to swap in 28 and 30, and own their pick in 29. In 29, we actually own the best and worst of ours, Boston, and Milwaukee's picks, Washington gets the middle one.

 

[Cugel]

• 2028: Right to swap first-round picks with the Bucks (more favorable of the two).
• 2029: Portland receives Milwaukee's unprotected first-round pick outright.
• 2030: Right to swap first-round picks with the Bucks (more favorable of the two

2028 swap, 2029 pick, 2030 swap all first round without protection.

 

[dviss1]

What do you think the chances are of a Portland/Milwaukee/NY 3 team trade happens? KAT to Portland with Giannis go to the Knicks. I believe it was reported last year that the Blazers were really high on KAT.

Watch KAT's defense this season and how Mikal Bridges responds to it in real time and you'd never want him on your team.

KAT is trash and has never been a winner anywhere he's gone.

2028 swap, 2029 pick, 2030 swap all first round without protection.

Really is amazing haul for Dame. We have a great chance to add a star player either by draft or trade with those picks. These are gold with Bucks looking to rebuild. Only thing that can derail it is if Bucks trade Gianni’s and get a star or unprotected pick back that gets them a star before those picks convey to us

I still dont like that bulls trade/pick hasn’t been completed yet.

 

[dviss1]

Shut him down until he's 100%. Every calf strain should be treated like this IMO.

 

[dviss1]

White folks should never really complain about bigotry but dude was just trying to say an outlandish word.
He doesn't really think it was actual bigotry. LOL

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Portland will be the most important cog of this entire saga - a rebuilding Bucks will most certainly prioritize having control of their future picks.

Atlanta would be an interesting landing spot for Giannis — Risacher to Portland

 

[Cugel]

Any team wanting Giannis should be buttering up Cronin

Jalen Johnson or no deal.
