Are the Bucks trading Brook Lopez to the LAKERS?

so we’re 2 and a half hours in the free agency and so far the Bucks haven’t done a thing as haven’t most of the league I think for most of the league it’s just they’re waiting on the top guy to kind of fall into place so that way they know whether they should be going for a star if they have a chance to get like a Paul George or if they have to pay a role player and I think the Bucks especially haven’t made any moves yet because of that where they are not really able to pay anybody so the guys that they do get are probably going to be guys that missed out weren’t able to get bigger offers from elsewhere and are going to have to kind of settle for a minimum deal with the bucks but the biggest news that came out today in terms of the Milwaukee Bucks is that the Lakers are looking to trade for Brook Lopez so that’s what I’m going to focus on and what really caught my eye was the Lakers resigning Max Christie for four years at $32 million it’s possible that people within the organization just really like him and they were mad that Darvin ham wasn’t playing and maybe that’s part of the reason they wanted him gone and they want to keep him but it kind of gets me to thinking that seems like one of those kind of tradable contracts and like a young piece that a team might be interested in especially a team that’s a bit older and so that’s kind of got me thinking is that somebody that they might use in a trade with the Bucks and then I started going through the NBA trade machine I couldn’t put Christie in there because uh he it wasn’t updated yet on ES pn’s trade machine but really the deal that I’m seeing that’s making the most sense for Brook Lopez would be Austin Reeves and cam Christie not cam Christie he just got drafted um max Christie for Brook Lopez and I’m Miss drop a comment let me know how y’all would feel about that as a bucks fan I would definitely prefer that to ruy haimura I do not if it was a Brook Lopez trade and the best piece we got back was ruy I’d be hardcore out on that Reeves I’d feel conflicted but I’d like it more than I don’t like it and the reason being if we’re trading Brook Lopez I think we need to get better younger and more flexible for the future me personally if we could get value back I’d much rather move on from Bobby uh but seeing as Brook Lopez is older very old and only has one year left on his deal if we could get value back I’m very open to it and Austin Reeves he’s a guy that is on a fairly team-friendly deal he’s only getting paid like 12 million a year and with the way some of these guys are getting paid right now in the NBA there’s guys that he might be better than that are getting paid 50 million Bradley Beal maybe he’s not better than Bradley Beal but he’s in that kind of tier of players so you’d be getting for the bucks a guy that is on a real bargain that you could then swing to another team um for better assets or a player that fits even more what we’re trying to do so you could make it a three te three team deal or you could bring him in see how it looks and if you and if we feel like we need more defense then swing them somewhere else so for the Lakers that’s the deal that makes sense to me it would be a catastrophe if we did it for Ru haimura I’m not a believer in him do not think he plays a lot of Defense doesn’t really do anything great Reeves would make it for the bucks if we were to keep him it wouldn’t fill the holes that we have defensively but it would make us like the Celtics offensively where you could put five creators on the floor and Five Guys that could all get you 20 on any given night you could go with the lineup of Dame Reeves Middleton Bobby and Giannis now for me especially with Bobby out there defensively that isn’t really going to cut it in terms of the defense but if you could then swing Bobby for a more versatile forward a Wiggins type of player then you’re really starting to talk about something a team that’s very versatile and like I said five guys that could get you 20 a night so if I’m U if I’m running the show for the bucks that is what I’m the type of deals I’m trying to make guys that could fit what we’re trying to do and if they don’t austar Reeves you can always move them somewhere else because that is a contract that a lot of teams would like to have so uh that’s definitely something that you got to keep an eye out for with the Bucks otherwise if they don’t make a trade we’re just waiting on the minimum type guys to fall uh if you want to know who what I think about guys we should be looking for Tori and Prince one of them Aaron holiday another one you can go back and check out my video from a few days ago on the top free agent targets for the bucks but in terms of Trades I want to get younger or I want to get picks so that we can U make a move maybe at the trade deadline and get another guy or we can just have a guy that’s going to help us more in the future rather than Brook Lopez who is already on the decline and doesn’t have more than two or three years left uh ideally it’s guys that could do things on the defensive side of the floor and can’t create on offense and can knock down an open shot but if you can’t get all of that at least having five guys out there that can get a bucket and if they’re not solute liabilities defensively like I don’t think Reeves is a terrible Defender that could work good enough for this team but overall it’s not panic time at all like we have to make these huge moves or that we’re in a terrible situation the last three years either Chris middlton three years ago was out Giannis was out the last two years if we’re fully healthy I like our shot but I’m definitely open to moving Brooke or Bobby to get younger let me know what y’all think what do y’all think’s about to happen drop a comment hit that like and then subscribe please yes sir
