Reaction to Damian Lillard traded to Bucks, NBA title favorites with Giannis? | Hoops Tonight



Jason Timpf reacts to Damian Lillard being traded to the Milwaukee Bucks in a three-team deal involving the Phoenix Suns, which sends Jrue Holiday, DeAndre Ayton, and others to Portland. Portland elects NOT to send Dame to his preferred destination of Miami, and instead he will now team up with Giannis Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton in Milwaukee to try and get the Bucks another NBA Championship.

  1. Had to get my J Timpf fix once I heard Lillard got traded; knew great analysis would be flowing forth

  2. Wouldn't be surprised if the Bucks average 70 plus points a game between just Giannis and Dame alone. This is nuts.

  3. Zach Levine to the Heat makes sense … shocked to even hear Jason utter the possibility of the Heat being interested in James "Regular Season Entertainment Inc." Harden.
    Jimmy Butler & Eric Spo would probably hang Pat Riley from the rafters if he brought in Harden …

  4. Jason –
    Ayton didn't want to be here. His effort level was never where it needed to be. He is every big as Jokic and Giannis, and pretty much just as athletic.
    But you saw him in the playoffs, right? Just giving up on plays. Not going for rebounds. Has 0 fire in his gut. You can say Jusuf is worse, but honestly that's not the case. The Suns got rid of a cancer.

  5. Bucks just seem crazy man. Dame/Giannis/Middleton/Lopez is insane, Portis is a better 6th man than anyone on the Nuggets. They still have Connaughton and Crowder who have shown they can play valuable minutes too, and Beauchamp seems like a solid prospect. Never know whats gonna happen with Beasley's shooting & old man Goran, but Bucks might be my title favorites now.

  6. Denver won because jokic played like a top 10 player of all time last year

  7. This isn't going to be the World beater that everyone thinks. Everyone knows Middleton will miss half the year or playoffs, Dame isn't the defender Jrue was, and teams have shown the ability to wall Giannis off in the playoffs. This will be a great regular season team though no doubt.

  8. bucks are the 2023-2024 champs, gratz giannis and dame. Betting is haram but the season is already over, the giannis dame PNR will exceed jamal and joke PNR which was historic last szn
    suns got fleeced on ayton. If they think nurc with his incapablity on offense and defense isnt enough the dude is also injury prone, good luck suns with bol bol as back up center
    blazers pushed dame out and took less out of spite, for an top 75 all time player they received an washed up soon to be retired jrue and ball demanding soft center in ayton 💀

  9. I can't like all these comments from unexpectedly happy Bucks fans ❤😅 such a fun upcoming NBA season

  10. Modern day Shaq n Kobe, a Kobe that spaces the floor to half court and is more efficient, and a Shaq that can eat your bigs off the dribble

  11. Even if Giannis retired, dame could still drag that team to the playoffs easily. Stacked

  12. Awesome analysis
    Good luck to Milwaukee
    Go Boston Celtics we need the chip this year

  13. Yeah, Pat Riley blew it… he lost that great opportunity and it's going to cost them.

  14. All that smoke u had for KD. U now did the same thing goddamn hypocrites. Don't tell me ain't the same

  15. I think this is a perfect example of staying patient and making your move while everybody else is sleeping on you
