Very good take, totally agreed
šÆšÆšÆ
Reports keep coming out saying he doesnāt want to go to a team with a big established star because of optics. He will go to a team like Miami but they wonāt be contenders because they are middling teams now who will lose a lot of depth and picks to get him. Miami will lose ware and wiggs or Jacques and wiggs or more plus picks.Giannis and Tyler herro doesnāt win a chip
šÆšÆšÆ
giannis just created a bunch of bucks hatewatchers after this trade deadline š¤£
If LeBron did this the whole NbA world would cry and complain. Giannis is self centered
But honestly, were the trade packages from the Wolves and Warriors real that good tho? The Bucks could wait until the Rockets, OKC, Lakers, Magic or Spurs become interested in the off season and get more in return
Exactly, OKC fans still love Westbrook because he left to a contender when we started our 2 year rebuildā¦ We get it.
Durant left after losing to the Warriors in the W conference finals up 3-1ā¦. then went to join that teamā¦.
What a fool. Along with that tweet. Like what dog, who tf is going to the bucks.
I just think Giannis wants to go to NY, but they don't want him
Lol everyone wants loyalty until it happens in a small market
If Giannis is acting like this purely because he wants to be remembered as loyal, then heās totally lost the plot. The dude could demand out tomorrow and wave good bye with double middle fingers and theyād still love him forever and build a statue.
Maybe when he repeatedly says he wasnāt to retire a buck, he means it. But you all in the media want him out of Milwaukee so so bad. 8 years of it over and over again.
I have a feeling Gianniās only wants to go to New York, and he probably knows if Knicks donāt win the chip this year, he will be traded in the off season to the Knicks. So heās just waiting it out.
He asked for doc. That guy is an idior
I wouldn't trade Jayden or Naz straight up for him
Spot on take. Been waiting for Giannis to play meaningful basketball for what feels like forever. The Bucks and Giannis just wasting each other out man. That Dame and Portland analogy was great. The thing is Giannis is a multi champion echelon type of player. He can really climb that ladder with the greats of all time which is why I wanna see him compete whether itās the warriors or whoever. (Warrior fan)
One could argue the mistake dame made was leaving at all, not waiting too long. You can't just ring chase and expect to win. Injuries happen, chemistry may not be there, luck is always a factor. Giannis might leave and regret it because if he joins another star the expectations shoot through the roof and there's no excuses, even though there is like injuries. Grass ain't greener
The disrespect of DH12 is unreal!! Boooo!!! Hahahaha
Yea I donāt get it
I feel like Gianniās saw the trade rumors getting alil to real and had to say some lol
Loyalty in the nba is highly overrated itās always one sided relationship between the players and front office everybody call it a business when players are traded but when the players take charge they want them to be a good slave and stay with a horrible organization when they arenāt in a winning situation
He is just too proud to ask or demand.
He bated by cavs. We were clearing all this cap space, got 4 million away from the goal, and he pulls the rug out from under us. At least we didn't get any worse with the moves we may actually be better.
I think there is a very good chance that Giannisās body is already breaking down.
He donāt chase championships sorry
Why is Giannis always pushed to leave by the media ? Why isn't curry pushed to leave ? What about Devin Booker? What about Brunson? What about Edwards ? Why wasn't Kobe pushed when his team sucked ? You don't know how his body will be 5 years from now ? That's just arrogance. You do know that the bucks won more games than any NBA team from 2018-2025. So they are allowed to have an off year to rebuild. Detroit pistons were the worst team in the NBA 2 seasons ago . Now they are top in the East . I resent this attack on the bucks players . That's a major disrespect. Last I checked Myles Turner started on the team that was 3 quarters away from winning the championship just last season. Bobby portis is in the running for 6 man of the year every year , and having a great season. And for a team that quit on their coach , they just won 2 straight. Goodness, in 2024 when Dame came , Vegas picked the bucks to win the championship. You act like he's been playing on a last place team in a northern Alaska league . What was the record of the golden state warriors in ,2020 season and the 2021 season ? Did they not come back and win the championship in 2022 ? Was there cat calls for curry to leave ? Nope . Didn't this same bucks team you are crapping on , come to LA and beat your favorite Lakers team on their floor ? Didn't this same bucks team beat your second favorite team golden state , in a game Giannis didn't even play in? When you self appointed media experts make these proclamations , you sound like emotional haters . Because you are unable to drive Giannis out of Milwaukee. And I got to tell you . I've seen some shitty parts of San Francisco and Los Angeles. So this California snobbery you can just keep that crap. All the old and new media , nothing but lapdogs . Follow each others narrative. No one thinks for themselves. It's pathetic really.
Giannis already breaks down. Bucks will regret they donāt trade him sooner.
One last thing , at least the bucks ownership group don't cheat like the clippers billionaire owner does . Paying players millions under the table . And they still lose . Don't here you talk about that ever .
I 100% agree.
And as a Timberwolves fan, IM SO FREAKIN RELIEVED!
Jason committed to his original questionable take. I realize his intense 'Giannis will be traded' made him look bad in retrospect. He sounds like he believes Giannis is somehow in control of the situation in Milwaukee. He's not. This isn't a LeBron situation. I predicted Giannis would go nowhere because the offers were poor and the Bucks FO would wait for better offers in the summer. Jason thinks the offers will be only 'slightly better.' No, they'll be much better. Jason's a really good analyst but a poor faux GM. He's letting what he wants to happen get in the way of a more useful and realistic take.
Hereās a crazy idea. If a player doesnāt want to play for a certain team maybe they shouldnāt sign the contract
Giannis wants that $275 mil extension and for his godlike mural in Milwaukee to stay intact š
Yeah Giannis has no skillā¦. Dude this is a joke of a take get real
only one team wins the NBA championship…. the Bucks can sneak in as the eighth seed and easily take out the Pistons or whoever is at the top in the east just like they were victims by the heat a couple years back…. especially if they fired doc rivers
Dame went to Giannis team and didn't do shit. He'll never be a champion like Giannis.
By his word, if he moves, we should not call him a legend
He will be mad wanting to leave when he goes back to playing..
i think the truth is Giannis is the most overrated star of this generation. run and jump guy who doesnāt like to win
Whatever weird shit the media and non bucks fans keep throwing up is just comical. The media ^ will degrade him on the low because he doesnāt move how the AAU boys do šIām a subscriber but you be trying shit š¤¢
Iām trying to understand your motives here but the bugs werenāt only gonna ask for pics they were definitely gonna ask for talent as well so if he got over there to Minnesota who the hell else was going to be playing with him to a āchampionship ā caliber this isnāt NBA Jam š
A part of me is happy knowing we might have a small chance next year with Steve Kerr finally being gone. We could put Draymond Green and others on The chopping blocks with all picks.
I donāt think Iāve ever hated a super star more after this
This sounds and feels like what Kevin Garnett experienced. As a Wolves fan I was happy to see him go to Boston for a ring, he is still loved here in Minny, probably more so than before he left
Wemby aināt a superstar? Or Cade? Both teams have a chance in winning.
I have to say you are confounded as well ! You have no idea of why Giannis stayed . You and all the other āexpertā content makers have done nothing for at least six years but try and get Giannis out of Milwaukee ! Itās the reason Gianniās trolled you a holes so bad yesterday on instagram! To any fan of the Bucks the war against our team by the NBA establishment has been too obvious ! For example Lillard had a move in Portland while driving to the basket that drew a foul consistently . After he was traded to the Bucks the NBA rules committee made a rule change to stop this foul being called . They made a video using Dame to send to all the refs to educate them on how to call these situations . Dames free throws diminished drastically . There is the tampering charge the NBA leveled against the Bucks for saying they intended to resign Giannis to an extension and the second round draft choice we lost . The second round draft choice we were docked for leaking the Bogdonavic trade a few hours before the trade period opening when the Lakers had done the same thing before with no penalty ! From the no three second calls in the paint when teams use the wall on Giannis ( the only player in The nba gets this tactic used against him ) and collapse four players into the paint to the constant fouls he absorbs underneath most of which are uncalled .. well letās just say maybe Gianniās and the bucks and their fans resent the constant unremitting pressure to get him off our team !
Giannis literally said numerous times just in the last month that he doesnāt want to leave. The only people that want Giannis to leave Milwaukee are the idiots in the media who kept saying the opposite of what Giannis was saying.
