I also remember when the Conley trade was lambasted because we gave up on Grayson Allen. I've never missed him on the Jazz for a moment.

Grayson was actually good for a stretch last night but yeah… he’s a generic replacement basic 2 guard
 
Bucks now at a major crossroads… they about to go into the megatax and their dudes are old. I would bet the salary dump Bobby and/or Pat… maybe Cobra Kai too… there is a reason one of their owners sold.

Probably because he likes money.

Bucks should be fine. Giannis seems like a guy who will be OK finishing his career on a team that isnt a favorite to win every year. And they will probably be a favorite for the next few years as Giannis is that good.

Jae has always been overrated and it's crazy to me people thought he would still be good after all the time off he took.

Agreed. I like the toughness he brings but I think his defense is overrated, and his offense is just really rough.

LOL he has plenty... guys like that love money but they love status too. Selling before a potential championship run tells me he knows pain is coming and he'd rather sell now.

The pain comes not with Giannis but they need to pay Brook a bunch of money... Middleton can be a FA... with the new CBA the tax is more punitive monetarily and with what they can add. They have no exceptions they can use to fill out the roster and will need to decide if they want to retain "meh" guys at an enormous cost or try to cobble something together. Jrue, Middleton, Brook all gonna age and the cost of those final couple years gonna be enormous. I doubt Giannis asks out... but i doubt he looks around and signs and extension.

The cap gonna murder these dudes.

Absolutely befuddling. It's a totally human mistake, but this level of competition doesn't permit that.

I have never seen so much bumbling horse-**** in such a high-stakes game. I cannot even recall a time I've seen a player pass up an open buzzer beater in order to just not get a shot off with season-ending stakes. Incredible.

They definitely didn't look like a veteran team and coach with championship experience...they looked like a team that had never been there before and the moment was too big for them.

Part of the negative about telling your role players they can only shoot 3's and at the rim is that they dont know what to do with themselves when they have to take a mid-range pull up.
