ESPN’s Shams Charania on the Likelihood the Bucks Trade Giannis | The Rich Eisen Show
okay So did Giannis shut the door on a trade from Milwaukee this past week did he say I’m staying pretty much or what i I I didn’t see him uh did he say that i I I didn’t see that No he was basically talking about how he loves Milwaukee and he’s he’s uh he’s you know he he’s as uh I guess as committed as ever to to loving the he’s loyal to the city Is is that where he is uh in private or where where do where do things stand right now with Giannis it’s a great way to say Yeah Things stand where the Bucks are operating under the belief that Jantmpo will remain a Buck going into next season That that they’re going to have him they they’ve they’ve had discussions on you know playing him more on the ball having him be more part of the ball be be the focus of the offense more with the ball in his hands not playing off the ball as much as he he potentially did alongside Damen Lillard the last couple of seasons and Doc Rivers and John Horse there They they really believe that this team has a chance to contend in the Eastern Conference next season Uh you know potentially you you you look around the league people look at the Eastern Conference a certain way clearly but Indiana up 2-1 in the series on Oklahoma City So uh with with those two factors and at the end of day Jiannis and Denkoopo has been there for 12 years So you’re banking on the equity that you built with them But I reported during NBA draft lottery and combine week that Jon and Dakoupo was open to exploring his options outside of Milwaukee And there were some serious conversations uh you know with his representatives internally Uh there was a lot of chatter around the NBA no doubt And so I I definitely stand by that But you know again there’s going to be a level of skepticism just based on the fact that Giannis and Dumbo has been there for 12 years He’s shown nothing but loyalty there He’s spoken though about how much he wants to win a championship He wants you know he doesn’t want to be a guy that only wins one ring Like he he’s going to have tough time sleeping at night after his career is over So those are his words He has said that on the record And so if he believes that this Bucks team is a championship team next season and for years to come and that Doc Rivers uh and John Horse have sold him on a championship vision next season that’s certainly his prerogative and there’s definitely a belief around the NBA that you know Jans and Dumbo will he be on the board will he not be on the board that it might be that he is is bought into what’s going on in Milwaukee right now Catch the Rich Eisen Show live weekdays from 12 to 3:00 p.m

Guy with the highest usage in the nba…. Get him the ball more?… 😅
I live in Milwaukee and I wish we never got rid of Jrue and never hired Doc
Shams, is a very low level scrub, Even Giannis Just Called Him A Flat Out LIAR.. His Reporting is not trustworthy!! it's all speculation..
Why does this guy sound so incompetent, find someone else who can speak properly NBA!
