Woj and Shams’s silence this entire week clearly meant something. This isn’t surprising in a way. Every other reporter saying they have heard this and that.

We were so close man
Haha, this was fun lets do this again next offseason guys!
Shams minor spelling mistake
at least we can watch our dick grow!
Wow. Giannis the new LeGM
It’s Joever

Masai did say not to put our phones down
FROM THE TOP ROPE

I’m fine with not trading for Dame whom I didn’t think was nearly enough to really get this team towards Championship contention.
But boy, if the FO doesn’t re-sign OG and he leaves in FA for nothing…
I’m actually ok with this. Never really felt like the trade was happening anyways. I guess Masai just wasn’t willing to give up all the players that Portland was asking for for a guy who didn’t want to play here. The funny part in all this is that Miami didn’t get him, lmao.
3 starters expiring heading into next season let’s goooooo
Gotta be honest the Bucks FO is tippable. Twice now they’ve gone all in with Giannis, shortly after him commenting about wanting to win and the team needs to be on the same page as him. That’s really great to see from a small market, hopefully Giannis repays them with an extension next year.
Thats how you keep Giannis I guess? Good for Milwuakee, glad he didnt get to Miami after how a vocal portion of their acted so entitled to getting him.
PS – Masai….. you couldnt beat this?
I’m actually so sad, felt like we were so close to picking a direction but we’re back to square one. Gonna be a long season with a lot of uncertainty and no pick to look forward to.
We the Mid
W for Coach AG
W for no more Giannis Rumours
W for Bucks
What direction is this team going,we cant compete in the East with what talent is on the roster clearly and we are too good to be bad.Masai and Bobby need to be on the hot seat cause Im getting tired of this shit
Kinda sad how no one wants to still play in Toronto after we won a championship. I think if Lillard was okay coming here we could have gotten it done. 😢
Broke: “tHiNk AbOuT pAiRiNg DaMe AnD pAsCaL”
Woke: Dame and Giannis
Well Bucks foiled Masai’s plans a 3rd time, maybe even fourth if you believe the rumour that he was trying to get Dame to eventually trade for Giannis. Lol. Basically no one wants to deal w Masai it seems. He hasn’t been able to make any substantial moves since Kawhi. Sometimes the hype and acclaim actually hurts you and your team I guess. Better to stay under the radar a bit.
Masai and our FO is washed. I’ve seen enough. We couldn’t beat a package of Jrue Holiday, 1 pick and 2 swaps? Holy.
Not only did we miss out on Dame. But now we’re not getting Giannis in 2025. He’s 100% staying now.
finally, now we can focus on our own team
I am so sick and tired of Masai doing nothing. He is still holding on the Kawhi trade.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DO SOMETHING!!!!
Edit: Woj just reported on ESPN that Portland is likely going to flip Holiday for a trade. Raptors can use him, but I wouldn’t give up a lot for Jrue
What….. holy what a shocker
The masai hate is fucked. Stole us a championship out of thin air. Stole us Scottie. Put some respect on his name.
Good. Dame wasn’t saving this team, so we didn’t lose out on anything.
Thank fucking god.
As per usual everything reported was zero true lol
