Milwaukee Bucks Rumours

12 Nov 2023 00:54:04
TOR trades Flynn

MIL trades Giannis

Milwaukee ends up with the best young prospect the Raptors have who is so good the Raptors haven't figured him out yet.

Raptors get a decent player who hasn't won DPOY since 2020. Maybe Milwaukee needs to throw in a pick?

Thoughts? I'd be very hesitant on trading Flynn but it might be worth it. . .

12 Nov 2023 03:57:53
Malachi Flynn gives me the creeps because I always think of the original Children of the Corn when I hear his name.

12 Nov 2023 11:54:52
Giannis just signed an extension to stay in Milwaukee. u don't think there's any chance he is traded, unless he demands it.
I'd say there's no chance in Hell he would want to go to Toronto.

12 Nov 2023 18:09:56
Milwaukee should add a second. Lol.

12 Nov 2023 20:40:15
This is horrible for Toronto. Flynn is their back-up point guard, they're left with no back-ups for Schroder after this trade.

30 Oct 2023 13:01:23
NO: J Allen
War:Valanciunas
Cle:G Payton II+Kuminga+Murphy+ 1rnd pick Bucks 25


Cle:
C:Mobley
PF:Kuminga
SF:Murphy
SG:Mitchell
PG:Garland

30 Oct 2023 16:55:58
Replace Murphy with Jones and I'd do it.

30 Oct 2023 19:26:35
That's an awful lot for Allen, not sure he could bring back Murphy alone.

31 Oct 2023 15:17:37
No way I’m giving up Murphy or Jones

I’d do JV Daniels and a 1sr and a pick swap.

15 Oct 2023 23:08:11
A januari trade , if Cleveland and Atlanta have a bad start

Knicks: Mitchell
Cle:Murray+1rnd pick Dal 24
Atl: Barrett+Hartenstein+ 1rnd pick Knicks 24-26+ 1rnd pick Bucks 25

16 Oct 2023 00:41:17
No thanks. Murray is a terrible fit next to Garland. A late first isn't enough incentive to move on from our best player.

11 Oct 2023 20:07:29
Bucks need a strong defender in the backcourt to be a contender:

MIL Harris
ORL Connaugthon, Beauchamp, Livingston

12 Oct 2023 13:02:45
Bucks say have you lost your f****** mind?

12 Oct 2023 15:00:36
Orlando says have you lost your f****** mind?

12 Oct 2023 15:45:27
Neither team does this. Orlando has a surplus of young talent that need minutes. Milwaukee won't sacrifice their depth or their young players for an expiring Harris.

12 Oct 2023 20:57:20
Harris is about equal in value to Connaughton, Milwaukee certainly wouldn't add last years first round pick who they are high on. Orlando says yes in a second but it'd never be on the table.

12 Oct 2023 22:47:20
Bucks need a strong defender having Lillard - and Buck want to win NOW. I do not know the talent of Beauchamp in detail - maybe you send another guy - but for now you have Harris and Beasley as a backup.

13 Oct 2023 00:48:12
Harris would be a good target for the Bucks but hard to make the money work. He's only worth a 2nd or 2.

10 Oct 2023 07:36:51
Dal: Embiid
Knicks: Doncic
Philly: Barrett + Fournier + 1rnd pick Knicks 24-26-28-30 + 1rnd pick Dal 24 + 1rnd pick Was 24 + 1rnd pick Bucks 25


Dal:
C: Embiid/Lively
Pf: G Williams/Kleber
SF: T Hardaway/D Jones Jr
SG: Hardy/Green
PG: Irving/Curry

Knicks
C: Robinson
PF: Randle
SF: Doncic
SG: Hart
PG: Brunson

Embiid-Irving should be a very good fit.
The Knicks get the superstar they always wanted
Philly get seven picks (and can maybe keep some of their own protected picks) and a young talent. They can start a rebuilt around Barrett and Maxey.

10 Oct 2023 21:52:55
Maybe a health Embiid, 25y old would worth more than 4 x 1st picks - but not the Embiid with 30, that never played all games in the 1st play offs round or more than 60 in a season. Lively and picks are a quite good and fair offer for him - and Embiid would get the chance to win the next couple of years, before he will retire.

28 Sep 2023 02:16:23
MIA-LAC-PHI

MIA gets PG, Covington

LAC gets Harden, Lowry, Herro, Jaime Jacquez, 2027 and 2029 1st rd picks via MIA

76ers get Terrance Mann, Morris, Batum, 2029 FRP via LAC


Harden'/ Lowry
Herro/ Russ
Powell/ Jaquez
Leonard/
Zubac/ Plumlee


Maxey/ Pat Bev
Mann/ Melton
Harris/ Batum
Morris/
Embiid/ Mo Bamba

^ Yeah they aren't getting equal value for Harden but tbf they were never going to. He's aging and isn't going to produce enough for any coach to tolerate his BS- best to build around maxey and embiid- they've got great depth now too- doubt anything happens unless maxey takes a giant leap but now you aren't 35 mil down the hole


PG/
Butler/ Richardson
Caleb/ Duncan/ Highsmith
Bam/ Jovic/ Love
Bryant/ Covington.

17 Sep 2023 09:18:37
Knicks:G antentonkoumpo
Bucks:Randle+Barrett+ 1rnd pick Knicks 24+26+ 1rnd pick Dal 24+ 1rnd pick Bucks 25 (return)+ Rnd pick Det 26+ 2nrd pick 27 Knicks

17 Sep 2023 16:08:01
Not enough.

18 Sep 2023 08:51:02
4 first round picks a young talent and an all star is good value for a star that wants out.

19 Sep 2023 17:58:53
Gasupo - this Knicks return would likely work for another "star that wants out".

07 Sep 2023 20:47:40
Okc- giannis

Mil- chet, jalen williams, dort, 3 1sts & 2 swaps

Can swap giddey with jalen williams if milwaukee want. Can add micic too

As long as sga and giannis are in tact

SGA
Giddey or williams
Dieng
Giannis
Pokusevski

Bench
Mann
Micic
Oladipo
Wallace
Robinson-earl
Bertans
Williams
Williams

08 Sep 2023 15:39:41
If OKC wants Giannis, the package would start with SGA. SGA, Chet, Dort, probably 5 1st Rd picks, and swaps. OKC would have to gut their team and their treasure trove of picks to get him.

08 Sep 2023 18:33:08
@ShaqIsBack I disagree. That would be a horrific overpay for Giannis. I would counter with Jalen Williams, Chet Holmgren, Josh Giddey, 5 firsts & 3 swaps.

08 Sep 2023 19:23:07
No superstar trade is going to include a superstar going back. That’s just not how it works Shaq. By trading SGA, the acquisition of Giannis becomes pointless.

It’s like saying Portland wants Bam for Dame. It’s a nonstarter.

OKC also has headliner quality assets (Chet, Williams, Giddy) . It’s not like they don’t have elite assets to offer.

08 Sep 2023 20:35:46
I agree with BMiller. Giannis' value is probably higher but SGA would never be included.

09 Sep 2023 22:53:00
I understand everything y'all are saying. What I'm saying is Milwaukee won't trade Giannis to OKC if it doesn't start with SGA. Williams and Chet might be good players, they might not be. Time will tell. Giannis is an all NBA superstar. They need to be compensated for that if they do trade him.

10 Sep 2023 05:06:05
But the Bucks will never get a player of SGA’s level for Giannis. Period. It’s not an option. Getting two elite prospects is the best they could hope for.

When you trade a superstar, you get unknown prospects. That’s just how this works. And the trio of Chet/ Williams/ Giddy are about as good of prospects as you could ever want in a deal like this.

04 Sep 2023 15:04:34
Rockets- giannis

Bucks- smith, green, tate, porter (send elsewhere for a 1st), 3 1sts, 2 swaps

A king's ransom if giannis wants to leave

Rockets

Vanvleet holiday
Thompson whitmore
Brooks eason
Giannis green
Sengun londale

04 Sep 2023 17:27:59
This does make sense for both teams. It's a slight overpay, but that's what is going to take to land Giannis.

05 Sep 2023 14:50:31
that's a nice package for Giannis.

02 Sep 2023 17:22:34
Cavs - Holiday & Beauchamp

Bucks - Garland & Okoro

Cavs get a bigger guard that's a lockdown defender, and a younger wing who has more potential and height

Bucks go younger with Garland who can play many years with Giannis or be a building block if he leaves

02 Sep 2023 18:52:18
i dont hate it but this makes the mobley allen front court pairing worse would have to make another move unless mobley gets it going from 3. which he wont with mitchell leading the way.

02 Sep 2023 23:06:48
This is terrible for Cleveland. Holiday isn't in his prime anymore. Garland is way better right now while also being young. There's no reason for the Cavs to consider this.

03 Sep 2023 04:05:00
I think Garland has more value than this by a fairly significant amount.

03 Sep 2023 13:50:06
Cleveland needs veteran leadership ON the court.

Grizzlies

22 Jul 2023 17:02:43
Knicks would say yes easily, getting off of Fournier's contract, they should give up more though

Spurs say yes, value about right

Grizzlies say yes, value about right

Magic say hell no, McDermott and a 2nd for Harris and Okeke? Both players are better than McDermott and Orlando hates 2nd Rd picks.

23 Jul 2023 02:11:58
Grizz don’t have any roster spots.

23 Jul 2023 04:50:29
other than some potential with Okeke, this looks like a revolving wheel of has-beens.

20 Jul 2023 06:20:58

Gary Harris will be going to Knicks in that deal

Miles McBride will be going to Timberwolves in that deal

I missed up that trade.

20 Jul 2023 10:39:54
Why exactly are the magic getting a top 4 protected 1st?

20 Jul 2023 13:10:20
Why would Minnesota do this?

Swap Daniels instead of Hawkins

Then im in if I’m Pels

But Portland would want more.

23 Jun 2023 20:45:37
Blazers - Lopez (S&T) and Allen
Bucks - Simons

After Rookie deals

Blazers - Barnes Gafford and Flynn
Raps - Scoot and Little
Wizards - Nurkic, Achuiwa and Watford

Lillard/Flynn

Lopez/Gafford

Holiday

23 Jun 2023 21:41:57
your first trade idea has some merit. But the Blazers sending out Scoot, Little, and Nurkic for Barnes, Gafford, and Flynn? NOT.

23 Jun 2023 22:15:55
Can maybe swap out Little for Keon Johnson.

I personally see Nurkic has a negative value, and was using Little to just be able to get rid of him… And see Gafford as a better option than him for Portland. Pretty much went Scoot for Barnes & Gafford. Portlands adds great defense, and Barnes would fit excellent there imo.

24 Jun 2023 18:37:20
whatever value Nurk has it's more than Gafford's. So, Scoot for Barnes is extremely unrealistic.

24 Jun 2023 21:37:31
I disagree. Nurkic is 4 years older and has struggled with injuries as of late (56 games is his max the last 4 season) and is a traffic cone on defense.

Gafford is 24 and is a great switchable defender that can guard the perimeter as well, something Portland needs a lot more than whatever Nurkic provides, especially with brining in Lopez here… who Gafford can also share the court with.

25 Jun 2023 01:00:00
I did mention your first trade has some merit. We will easily agree to disagree on the second one, Scoot going out for that sub-par return is the antithesis of a winning move.

22 Jun 2023 13:30:52
Boston gets-
K. Martin Jr

Houston gets-
Brogdon

Boston saves 20.5 mil and houston wants vets.

Boston re-signs Grant Williams and gets to use their TPMLE (Westbrook)

22 Jun 2023 14:29:37
Westbrook would be awesome in Boston
I would like to see him winning a title in Green.

22 Jun 2023 13:18:10
Portland: giannis antetokounmpo

Dal: Nurkic+ Simmons

Bucks: Sharpe+Brtrans+T Hardaway+#3+#10+#23+ 1rdn pick Portland 26-28+ pick swaps 25-27-29

22 Jun 2023 14:53:19
I dont think portland have enough to get giannis.

19 Jun 2023 17:26:51
Draft Day trade.

Clippers get Chris Paul

Wizard's get Eric Gordon (waive before end of season), Robert Covington + pick #30.

Clippers cut $3.5 mil in salary (+ around $10 mil in luxury tax) .

Washington remains under the luxury tax with the Phoenix+Clippers trade. Washington waives Gordon before the deadline to clear $20 mil off next seasons cap space. Rough guess If KP opts in, the Wizaeds will have $18 mil in cap space and nearly $60 mil in expiring contracts. Not a bad place for a Sam Presti protégé to start working with.

19 Jun 2023 20:21:36
So this actually can't happen as I have drawn it up because of a CBA rule that essentially makes Gordon's contract worth $0 in trades unless the last year is guaranteed. But even if done, Gordon juscomes an additional $20 mil expiring contract to trade for bad contracts and picks.

19 Jun 2023 06:35:31
Lakers - middleton

Bucks- russell 4yr/80 with team option, beasley, 17th pick

Lakers add a vet shooter, lebron run the point

15 Jun 2023 20:22:48
SAC-MEM

Sacramento S&Ts Harrison Barnes (3yr/ $15 mil per year) +Kings 2025 second round pick

Memphis trades Brandon Clarke+Santi Aldama

Barnes moves right on into the starting SF position while also providing key mentorship to the Memphis roster. Memphis uses their first and 2 seconds to fill out the roster.

Kings get a young stretch 4 and possible starter in Aldama with Murray & Sabonis. Kings also have the depth to let Clarke miss the first half of the season recovering from his torn Achilles tendon.

15 Jun 2023 20:53:34
Would rather use our full MLE for a SF rather than trading our best bench big who we desperately needed in playoffs. Maybe an Oubre.

16 Jun 2023 00:58:54
I am really after Aldama, but there doesn't really seem like a good trade because of salaries.

16 Jun 2023 17:43:10
Which one of you guys are really monte McNair? Took my idea of Holmes, Mitchell and 1st round pick for OG, and now it’s all over the internet kings are pursuing it.

14 Jun 2023 04:14:04
I saw this one on a YouTube video and Ithought I would toss it up.

ATL trades Capella, Collins and Bogdonovich

Phoenix trades CP3, Ayton, Shamet and a pick swap

This deal is done before CP3's waive date of June 28th so that ATL can waive and stretch him. After next season, Shamet's remaining 2 seasons are fully non-guarenteed. This cuts $20 mil next season + an additional $10 mil the season after that.

For Phoenix, Capella would be the type of center that new HC Vogel would want to anchor his defense.

14 Jun 2023 12:24:35
The suns will waive Chris Paul reap the benefit of his waving. They are in super tax territory why take back almost 60 million in salary for Capela, Collins, Bogdanavic? that's why the Atl-Pacers-Suns deal for Turner to ATL Pacers get Ayton Suns get Capela is the only deal that makes sense financially.

14 Jun 2023 16:07:33
@Dukeye Phoenix Suns New owner doesn't seem to really care about "costs". He definately has that Steve Balmer feel to him. This trade adds more talent to the Suns roster.

14 Jun 2023 21:53:10
I'm a Hawks fan I would do anything to get rid Capela and Bogdanavic but no way hell do the suns take back all that salary for such marginal role players. Now what I would like to see is Atl get Myles Turner & Buddy Hield--Suns get Capela a 2nd Rd pick from Hawks & Pacers--Pacers Ayton, Bogdanavic. All teams move unwanted players. Suns get under cap.
