HOLY HELL

Nice hit for MIL

 

[Tetsujin]

Turner
Giannis/Portis
Kuzma
Prince/Trent
KPJ

Probably a good enough roster to make some noise at the top of the east this year in particular. Still stuck with Doc Rivers though.

Breaking up your finals roster to avoid paying the tax. Good work.

Milwaukee is doing all they can to buy time. Giannis does not appear to be the most mercenary of superstars. He wants to stay in Milwaukee, and he wants the Bucks to give him reasons to stay. So they're trying. Commendable start, in my opinion. They've got so few avenues for improvement, so Turner at that price is a pretty great get.

It's a curse for a small market team. It's the same with the Kings. Vivek will never pay luxury tax.

Damn. That's a shameful end for Dame.

Dame tore his Achilles a month ago. He’s not playing until the 2026-2027 season if he ever does suit up again.

And they got their 2026 pick back from the Pelicans for the #23 this year right before the Tyrese injury...that's looking like a goldmine

If someone actually uses a trade exception this offseason on top of it then we might be back to expiring deals being worth something soon too

I'm immediately scared that Kuzma to Kings rumors will start ramping up again.

Somewhere Monte just reflexively started drawing up a two pick deal for Kuz.

not much different than Dallas trading Doncic but using his lifestyle as a reason for it, which is absolutely a factor here still

Bucks gonna have 23 million dollars of dead money on their cap for the next half decade haha

thank you for your service, now good riddance

 

[kingsboi]

replacing Lopez for Turner is a great start for the Bucks. They have to get rid of Kuzma though
