The Milwaukee Bucks have a new plan around Giannis – and it’s absurd.

Bucks don't have their own picks so tanking is hard. They're probably trying to squeeze 2-3 more years of championship contention out of giannis.
As a kings fan offing Lavine to Mil sounds great!
Zach Lavine would be a great get!
…If he was making like 25 or 30 mil instead of 50 😂
As a Pacers fan, This is music to my ears, Let Milwaukee dig deeper into their already feeble Picks, By the time Giannis leaves, There will be nothing left
Part of me wonders if they’re just checking the market for everything and making sure everybody knows about it in order to make Giannis feel like they are exhausting every possible avenue to keep his current team competitive, and ultimately they won’t end up making any major moves at all
Then that means other teams weren’t willing to give up what the bucks wanted for Giannis or didn’t like the offers other teams were giving.
Portis and Kuzma for Zach Lavine is a good trade for the bucks. Offers for Giannis are really low so far. The eastern conference is so weak, if Giannis is a supernova he can defeat teams by himself
They could get both and it wouldn't help at all.
You are way better than Flight Mike
Lavine is not a winner. Everyone know that, Giannis should know that.
HEY.. you let the Kings have something for once and let them get off Lavines contract 😂
Bucks be like: I didnt hear no bell!
I like Zach Lavine on the bucks
James Harden for Kuzma and Ajax and 2029best swap at best. Bucks fans would rather nail 🔨 their meat 🌭 to a burning building than watching the team overpay what we don't have for Lavine or Grant 😂 Just trade Giannis to BKN so they can try to reform the rest of the assets around him. While giving MKE a piece of the farm and picks for a teardown ⚒️
Bucks should also add Ben Simmons to the team
giannis in milwaukee increases their economy they NEED him
They shouldn't have waived/stretched Lillard. If nothing else, they could have bought him out or traded him somewhere, maybe for some expiring contracts or smaller salaries.
Nah. Just keep making myopic moves to hang onto Giannis to ………… turn the next ~5 years into the saddest retirement tour possible.
Giannis is NOT signing a new contract in 27" Bucks have no future, they gave it up to get Jrue (worth it won a chip) and Dame (not worth it). Now just get a future star and as much draft capital as you can before he leaves for nothing.
Can’t they just sign thanassis to a vet minimum 5 year deal and hold him hostage?
They can get Luka and still not be contenders. The team lacks depth, versatility, and coaching. Doc just don’t got it anymore the amount of give Giannis the ball and spot up until help arrives on offense is ridiculous and the defense is straight garbage. Just trade the man and start over
I'd love them getting Zach!
Lavine would be okay on the team. Thyr need a playe4 like him. A little expensive thats why you shouldnt give to much
Giannis says f that trade me to the Knicks
If they're taking risks, call up Victor Oladipo!! They're talent starved
If you arent satisfied then dont trade giannis he thinks hes a dictator but hes a injury away from the worst contract in the league. He woupd be worse than brook lopez if he loses his athletcism agility
slow down the first 10 seconds of this video-and watch Giannis literally take five steps to the basket. Layup without dribbling past the 3-point line! This is why the NBA is losing fans when the stars can do whatever they want.
Bucks are simping hard 😂
Nobody is blowing up their team to get Giannis those days are long gone. This is a good move
Nobody wants Zach lavine, he’s injury prone and he’s awful on defense I don’t think there’s a worse combination than that
I think Giannis is very passive with his future. He could ask for a trade and Bucks would get great value. If I am Portland, I would trade with the Bucks and get even more of the future Bucks picks. They also get rid of a bad salary in Grant.
Lavine would be a good fit on the team. Only problem is his contract lol. At one point he did average 27 5 and 5 for Chicago. On 50/40/85 shooting splits. That’s what got him paid in the first place lol. But then Chicago wasn’t healthy, and SAC isn’t very good.
Russell Westbrook Zach lavine (preferred Malik monk) for kuzma any mid tier pick and Ryan Rollins
Giannis only wants to go to Lakers and play with Luca, Reeves and LeBron. You heard it here first. 😊
GIANNIS-KPJ-PORTIS KUZMA-TURNER IS A GOOD TEAM FOR THE NEW START OF BUCKS
Why does everyone want Giannis to leave. The bucks have done everything in there power to put players around him. They even won a chip. Why leave? Stick with the team that believed in you, caters to your every whim. What more could they have done to keep him happy?
Lavigne is probably best case scenario for them, but why do the kings do that deal, even with his awful contract. But in theory Giannis could possibly get the best out of him, but I still don’t think they’d be good enough to compete
Milwaukee really just doesn’t want to do the most obvious choice, trade Antetokounmpo. I was saying this two years ago because I could see the trap they built for themselves, but these teams never wanted to make the hard decision.
It’s probably impossible for the bucks to build a good team with the Dame dead money hit on their cap. I feel like that was the worst move of the 2020’s so far
Sacramento was absolutely insane to pair Demar and Zack together after those two failed miserably in Chicago
As long as you have Giannis you have to try to be as competitive as possible and because it's not working for them now they have to make changes.
If Giannis decides he's fed up then they'll hit the full rebuild button.
You can't even think about rebuilding when you have Giannis in the team
Lavine could thrive as a clear #2 option and having a core of Giannis, Myles Turner, Lavine & KPJ could make some noise in the east
It would be crazy to request a trade while your a$$ has been sitting on the bench, injured, and making millions.
That Portland team was a number 1 seed before poor coaching and injuries caused them to fall out of the play in. Not the same. Still it's time to rip the band aid off and get a thunder haul for giannis. They could send giannis to orlando for banchero black and silva. To Atlanta for JJ and okongwu. To san Antonio for keldon sochan and max picks/swaps. To Lakers with turner for reeves/bron plus max picks and swaps.goldenstate moody kuminga trayce max picks/swaps and then pray for
Milwaukee’s biggest flaws other than coaching of course, are rebounding and defense. We foul too much because we’re too small at SF, and we normally get out rebounded every game.
We really have no need for any more guards/shooters. Our entire team is nothing but shooters, other than Giannis, Kuz, and Sims. Adding Lavine’s salary would mean trading our only two backup bigs (Kuz & BP) for a player in Lavine who’s just a shooter. (He’s not a good defender or rebounder). Also if the trade did go through, our only bigs would be Giannis, Turner, and Sims. We’d have no backup PF. Lavine is also set to make 49 mil next year. Just not a smart idea to trade for him at all. Especially when he’s not a positional player of need for this team.
We literally have no Wings or SF’s on the team.(TP out for a while)Kuz is literally our only wing defender, and he’s technically a PF. There’s absolutely no point in trading for Lavine when KPJ and Rollins are our guards of the future. GTJ and AJ basically play the same role as Lavine anyway. (Just without the flashy dunks)
I’d rather trade for a starting 2-way SF/wing, and a backup rebounding big. I’d prefer to target players like Herb Jones and Daniel Gafford for example.
I think for the Zach LaVine around a bunch of Defense that's what he always needed because the Dude can flat out score
This all could have been avoided if they did not have that terrible off season
Ivey holland and picks
Bro.. the Bucks were never going to compete this year
