2025-26 Milwaukee Bucks Season Thread

Yeah the guy saying Giannis was not happy is Giannis wife cousin but he also has served as the mouth piece for Dame in the past. I am calling BS on Giannis being upset as it's just another thing in media trying to force Giannis out of MKE. If Giannis was calling Turner and trying to get him to come to MKE he was working with the front office because he knew to get Turner the Bucks would have had to make the move to get rid of Dame which means he was on board with the move if he was making a pitch to get Turner.

And to your point - the media continues to push for Giannis to be unhappy and asking to be traded because it fits their needs - they want Giannis in a big market where they can talk about him more. They don't understand that he's not like many of the other superstar players in that he doesn't like the spotlight on him and likes Milwaukee.
 
"several contending teams" reached out to Lillard's camp in the immediate wake of his release, and the Golden State Warriors, Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers are all interested in quickly finalizing a deal.

Probably offer vet min deals for this year and 2026 since MKE will be paying him $50 million plus for next 2 years.
 
More proof that Giannis being mad is a lie because the team had to keep him in the loop on this was former Buck John Henson saying when he was with the team they were going to trade Middleton for Butler and Giannis said nope not going to happen.
 
listening to ESPN radio on my drive to Physical therapy this morning. It seems that the media thinks that every star player is going to be like LeBron and jump teams to try to find a team that can win the championship every year. The fact is, there are a lot of star players, but only 1 team can with the championship any year. And it's not like Milwaukee hasn't been trying, and that Giannis hasn't brought home a trophy.
 
The media and NBA don't want a super star in a small market. They can't max out there money on pumping him by playing in MKE vs LA or NY.
 
Pacers GM saying Myles Turner never gave them a chance to match contract. Nah bro you just low balled him and probably insulted him so when MKE gave him a good offer he was like screw the Pacers why should I give them a chance to match then they tried to sign me on the cheap.
 
I sure hope the Bucks know what they are doing.

Apparently, Micic is now being bought out. Didn't we just trade for him?

I guess it gives cap space to help in the Turner deal, but, sorry????
