Thanasis is good for the locker room – not just for Giannis. His salary is basically a non-hit to the cap and he takes up a spot that would otherwise go to a young guy Bud isn’t going to give minutes anyway
TheOtakuway
Also he’s amazing for the team culture and brings energy literally every night.
mikeh95
We’d make his mother assistant head coach if he told us to. That’s what you do for players like him.
No_Mammoth_4945
Yeah honestly, this is just throwing shit for no reason
Reasonable-Pair-9937
Look who their quoting Gery fat ass Woelfel a notorious bucks hater and someone who always seeks the negatives.
Temporary_Ad_7083
The “source” here is everything. Gery is a bum
MacDemarcoMurray
wouldn’t surprise me if Gery was making everything up. even so, it’s not like the last guy on our roster would play in the playoffs. more than happy to have thanasis there
ChristianKamrath
Good locker room guy. If that’s enough to keep Deandre Jordan on a roster, then it’s good enough for thanasis
bikingscr016
Hey Ger Bear, ask those same fucks if their team had Giannis and he wanted Thanasis at the end of the bench if they wouldn’t sell their families to do so.
SmokeyMcP0ts
Ask them “if you giving Thanasis a roster spot guaranteed you Giannis would you sign him?”
VexdCheese
Anything Woelfel related is junk. Not worth anyone’s time.
usvtheman
I personally don’t care about him taking a roster spot or whatever, but at a certain point he has to know he’s just a charity case and that can’t feel great. I think he should seriously consider transitioning to coaching as a way to stay involved, keep bringing all the attributes we love that he brings, and kickstart a new career path.
lundej16
I mean he literally *was* but okay Ger Bear.
What happened to the Woelful ban?
Bac0nnaise
What a terrible mistake for the Bucks to waste a roster spot like that. That surely will affect their record, which is… *checks notes*… you know what, never mind
tsagalbill
Anyone can say they have “sources” without having anything. It’s all made up.
paulyv93
His energy at practice and during the free throw competitions they show during the all access videos is worth it alone. No one complained about Haslem taking up an honorary roster spot for the last ten years.
cesar_chris
Never forget Gery Woelfel was arrested for soliciting a prostitute
ridemooses
If Udonis Haslem can have a roster spot, so can Thanasis.
Andrado
If someone’s trying to make the argument that the Bucks are giving a roster spot to a guy that no one else in the NBA would sign, I’d respond that the Bucks’ having the best record in the NBA pretty consistently over the same period of time is a stronger counter-argument that our roster is exactly what it should be.
They could’ve used that roster spot on, I don’t know, Jabari Parker maybe? Just brainstorming here…
-Woelfel, probably
flybydenver
He’s taking the head-butt suspensions so Giannis doesn’t have to. Win-win.
Organic_Enthusiasm90
Goddamn, I thought Gery retired. Bucks clinch the #1 seed, and this is his scoop lmao. What a hater.
Turbulent_Log4663
Thanasis statement game tonight, he’s about to drop 40/15/10 for the world to see why he’s the older brother.
Juraviel23
Gery doesn’t have any sources.
ikisstitties
often times the last one or two guys on roster don’t get any playing time at all, and sometimes that’s even the case for garbage time, so who gives af?
lastride515
Do I wish he played a hundredth like his brother, yes
Do I want him off the team, hell no
Cantguard-mike
Fucking worth it a million fucking times over. Look at haslem. He’s worth the roster spot to help the young guys. Thanasis does bring value to this roster. The 12th guy in the bench never plays anyway
allie131
Ok COVID sucked for so many reasons but the fact it robbed us off seeing these two celebrate a championship together is most definitely on the list.
Edit hopefully that is wrong is righted this year
TheLegendofLior
Oh, you mean Player-Coach Antetokounmpo?
98Wright
Yeah that spot wouldn’t be of value anyway. Love T.
classicolanser
Udonis Haslem is literally on an NBA roster right now. Thanasis would beat him 21-0 in 1v1
panda_assassin
Weird how so many people outside of our fan base disrespect our team yet suddenly have such a strong opinion about what we should do with our 15th roster spot.
HN1L
dudes just trying to stir up the team before playoffs.
thanasty is a solid dude who contributed a lot past few years during the regular season. although his role has been greatly diminished this year, hes still a great team motivator/presence.
Carter944
He still hustles and gives 100% effort so I can’t really complain about him. For like 5 minutes a night and his salary I’d be happy to keep him for Giannis
reademandsleep
Don’t care. If our team wouldn’t do it, some other team would, and then where would we be? Worth it.
willyoakview
“Appease Giannis” is a weird way to say ‘brilliant roster and front office management.’
MilwauKyle
He’s a 12th man. Like, what’s the difference between him and an average 12th man, or even the best for that matter?
Kevin_Jim
They hate us cause they ain’t us. We love Thanos. The guys on the team love him, and Giannis adores him. Everyone else can pound sand.
kelso3514
TA knows his role on the team, he brings the energy, the high fives, and the excitement to the team from the bench. One of the van gundy’s said that’s a nice thing to have on a bench for an 82 games season.

Any time something like this is asked to nba executives, it’s always anonymous. Who gives a shit?

Fuck Gery Woelfel, I thought he was banned here
oneupdouchebag
I’m trying to think of a way to say “only three teams said no? that means 27 said yes” without sounding like a monster with no concept of consent.
toremysackola
There’s a lot of end of bench guys who’ve never put up 20+ in an NBA game.
Solluzion
So did Udonis Haslem but he made sense for Miami all those seasons. I don’t think you could make a very good argument against a team that finished with the best record in regular season. If it works it works.
The-Dog-Envier
Shit I’ll give his son a spot if it makes him happy.
SwaggyD54
There are plemty of teams that carry a 15th man for culture and for experience. Thanasis is a champion after all lol.
