2025-2026 NBA Season Thread: Wolves Back • Page 27

do you think theyre making these moves without at least checking with the guy they're desperately trying to convince to hang around

 

GTJ and KPJ will definitely start

and we are keeping Rollins and … Kuzma is still on the roster? weird team in xs and os sense but i’ll take it

 

Horst has clearly discovered that the cap isn’t real. Maybe there’s a Kuzma + Pat deal somewhere out there

 

I suppose that’s true. But still don’t like it overall haha

 

Shit move to dump Lillard recovering from an Achilles tear, reeks of desperation to keep Giannis happy because they couldn't do anything else otherwise

 

I mean, Dame is still gonna get his money

 

But now he will no longer have access to team physicians, facilities, etc to recover. Obviously he can pay for his own but setting up your own treatment is not the same this as having it facilitated by the team.

 

he’ll enjoy the doctors of the miami heat

 

lmao

 

I don’t even fully believe that Giannis wanted out or was debating if he wanted out etc…but I do know that if he was/is, Myles Turner and 22m dead cap for 5 years wouldn’t be a needle mover for me lol and if it is for Giannis, good for the Bucks. He’s easy to please.

EDIT: Oh. Nvm. Haha.

 

Hahahahaha

 

well…

 

that’s fine. trade him.

 

Interested in a lightly used LaMelo Ball?

 

Yeah Dame gets paid and gets to sign elsewhere when he was pretty obviously never comfortable in Milwaukee. Obviously some desperation from Milwaukee but they were straight up out of moves and this keeps them plenty competitive in a barren eastern conference. Love it for them, all things considered

edit: just saw the Giannis unpleased tweet lol carry on

 

well he can also pay for someone to set it all up for him

 

if it’s real, trade him. i don’t think it’s real. chris haynes is essentially dame’s equivalent of windhorst for lebron. just putting out there PR for his guy

 

Maybe Jrue can go back to Milwaukee if he gets bought out.

 

Shams reported Giannis + Turner valued the opportunity to team up.

This is PR lol. He’s not going to say “I’m actually really happy we did this to dame”


And if he’s actually upset - TRADE HIM!!!

 

slow news day, huh

 

Yesterday: someone named Ty Jerome is signing with the grizzlies

today: Giannis literally drove Dame to the airport and told him to get the fuck out of Milwaukee

 

For the next two years they’re basically paying Turner $40m if you include the Lillard dead money, which is an overpay but not far off from what he would’ve signed for somewhere else before the second apron era. It’ll kill them in the third year but by then Giannis is older and the east is better and they have some picks to look forward to and they can trade everyone and tank their lil hearts out
