Myles Turner is a Milwaukee Buck 🚨
Go ahead. What you got?
Well, we have some breaking news from Sean Shirania that is very interesting, which is the Milwaukee Bucks have signed Miles Turner, which is a true stunner of a move on a variety of levels. One, because Miles Turner goes from the the defending Eastern Conference champion Indiana Pacers to the Milwaukee Bucks. Two, the Milwaukee Bucks did not seem like they had the ability financially to make this kind of a move in the situation they are in. So, I’m not at the moment because we’re on TV cur I’m very curious to see what the ripple effects are in terms of how the Bucks are creating the space to make this deal work. However, for the Milwaukee Bucks, a team that, as we just talked about, came into this summer needing to try to show Giannis Koopo that they have the ability to compete in the Eastern Conference. Miles Turner is a younger, better version of Brook Lopez, who they have just locked up for the next several years. That is a fascinating development. something that comes completely out of left field. It is a huge hit to the Indiana Pacers who obviously are just coming off this finals run. They are certainly going to take a step back this season between this and the Tyrese Hallebertton injury. And this really does pretty dramatically shake up the Eastern Conference standings in a way that frankly I did not see coming at

ESPN you guys should NEVER underestimate John Horst and his creativity during offseasons. Horst will shock you guys. We just waived Dame to creative the cap space
They cut dame for myles
That Front line of Turner Sims Portis Giannis… yikes!! No more bs drop zone and you still can stretch the floor with Turner shooting… bucks a move away from being a legit finals pick
Nice move for the Bucks. Now that they waived Dame, it's time to pick up Chris Paul out of free agency.
Man shoutout to dame💯🫶🏾
Bontemps top lip never moves when he talks
As a pacers fan I’m happy. Turner sucked this year he was averaging like 6 points a game
Indy might try to go after Ayton now
Dame was waived to make this deal happen
good for the pacers ! myles was their tenured played and he was hot garbage in the finals. Pacers win 4-2 wouldn’t of needed a 7th game and tyrese would still have his achilles .. myles sold the pacers so the pacers sold myles 👏🏾✌🏾
It was a move to prevent Giannis from leaving that’s why the Bucks signed Turner. It was a clear sign of desperation and we’ll see if it convinces Giannis to stay or request to be traded.
He left because he felt guilty 😂 myles turner you didnt take one layup in the finals he doesnt want to even grab a rebound, and he was the biggest guy on the court 🤣🤣
Pacers is outta there now
You had one good game in the Finals & got severly outplayed by Isaiah Hartenstein. Good riddance 👋🏿…….#YESCERS
maybe sabonis trade?
Younger version of Brook Lopez yes, not necessarily better, only time will tell. Brook has had a stellar career in Brooklyn and Milwaukee.
Waive dame for turner
As a pacers fan, I couldn’t be happier with this news. No longer the days where I see this man getting handled in the paint, losing rebound matchups against every center he plays against. Just getting bodied every time someone goes to the low block. $28M/year for a center that can’t rebound, can’t shoot when it matters, and has a weak mental is outrageous. Enjoy him Milwaukee, he’s your problem now. Should’ve kept Brook
Not a big deal
No Hali
Turner isnt a difference maker
He shot well thats in large part due to Hali getting him the ball wide open 3s
Lakers, please just sign someone above 6 foot 9. My goodness.
You didn’t see this coming at all? 😂 he absolutely sold the pacers
Lil BUMtemps on First Take 😂😂! G T F O Laker hater!
Come playoffs, this will make the Bucks worse… prepare to be frustrated Bucks fans!
Dam lakers miss the boat typical off season de ja vu with lbj signing that same year 🎉
Is this because he didn’t want to wait a year to be competitive again? Or was it the front-office thinking the payroll was going to be high for a team that will take a step back this coming year?
KARMA FCKED THE PACERS FOR THAT CHOKE GESTURE BY HALIBURTON.
Pacers did turner nothing
He was with the team in its bad years finally went to the finals and you can’t keep him what a joke
Its effects the pacers more than the bucks. Bucks are still not contenders. Need to start fresh. Oh well
Preparing for Giannis deuces ✌️
Let's be real. Dame can dazzle a croud at times but not near as much as he used to. We actually got worse as a team when he joined. It was great timing for the Bucks to put him on waivers. Turner will turn the frowns upside down.
Dame’s injury has seriously made people develop memory loss. I sure hope he gets healthy and goes to win a Chip with another contending team, while playing his usual high1level of game, or at least close!
He's already better.
