2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

I agree they need to keep Giannis happy going forward, that is why I think they would consider this. They already have 80M in salary before signing these three. I really doubt they are going to be willing, or even able, to sign Middleton to a max + Bledseo & Brogdon to $20M each. So, would you rather have Middleton + Bledsoe + Korver + Jazz 1st or just two of Bledsoe, Middleton & Brogdon? I think it is a no brainier.

Your numbers are off... Hill is basically non-guaranteed next year. Once Middleton waives his option they have like 50M in salary... add 32M for KM, and 40 for Bled/Brogdon and they are at $122ish... Lopez complicates things, but they could get off Snell's money. They let Bledsoe walk or get a deal on him and they are totally fine.
 
Brogdon isn't available because there are zero reasons for the Bucks to trade him. He is cheap right now, plays right now and they have his restricted free agent rights.
Every Bucks writer & national person who has written/talked about them has acknowledged that the Bucks won't be able to keep all three of Brogdon, Bledsoe, & Middleton. So, in my mind it is about getting something or nothing. As I said, I don't think they have much chance to win this year (because of Warriors), so if you want to maximize your championship window you need to be as good as possible in the next 2-3 years. But, maybe that is not going to be their mindset.

I forgot about Hill! Still, you are saying the same thing as I am, they are going to end up letting Bledsoe walk for nothing (unless they get a discount for some reason).

They control Malcolm though... Bledsoe's market may be a little less robust too. Might get a slight discount on Khris if they give him 5 years... They should be able to stay below the tax and keep the team together.
 
One thing to watch... Phoenix has said they want to be players in FA... they don't have space as is... TJ Warren is out with "ankle soreness"... Igor used the word "shutdown" to describe his availability and will be re-evaluated in two weeks (what else is in two weeks)...

I wonder if they move him for expirings and draft stuff... they love shutting down guys to make sure they don't get hurt. Have heard he is available from different experts. I'd be interested.

FYI, I just added it back up, and I show the Bucks have $78 M before Lopez, Brogdon, Bledsoe, or Middleton. I am looking at Shamsports (http://www.shamsports.com/capulator), is there a more accurate place to be looking?
 
Any bench lineup that involved Niang has allowed our opponents to either close the gap or even make a comeback and take the lead in multiple occasions over the course of last few games. Our starters were good enough to bail them out, yes. But if this trend continues, it will inevitably start costing us some games.
So niang has been playing and hurting us lately. And we have won like 9 out of the last 10 or something. And that's without Porter or Conley or whoever. And no than or X.

So adding Porter and or Conley or whoever would presumably make us better. So we would have maybe gone undefeated during this stretch if healthy? Losing zero games with niang playing a bit doesn't sound so bad. I would love to not lose any games actually.
Add in the fact that niang could actually improve. Sounds really good to me.

Niang is so bad, unbelievable that he gets minutes in the NBA.
Yet we are still winning all these games.
It's cause niang playing a few minutes doesnt matter much if our starters are killing it.

Most teams have someone who sucks that plays a few minutes to give the main guys rest.

Too lazy to pull and reply to the post, but no way we should or need to give Favs/Exum AND a pick for OPJ.

I love the dude but we would be helping them off that salary, giving them a true and flexible asset in Favs and another young kid with a decent contract in Exum. Giving them a 1st as well is ridiculous.

You save that for Conley....

I'd be so down.

He can play small ball 4, right?

They haven't updated... Henson and Delly are gone... also they don't have to take the 3.5M Teletovic hit because of medical retirement. They will be able to manage just fine imo.
