  1. I just made a video talking about how this move is incredibly similar to when we acquired Jrue. This time it's to take the load off giannis and khris creating in the half court, as opposed to facilitating and defending poa with Bledsoe.
    This gives me much more confidence that it'll be a double duty of Pat and Marjon. I think they'll experiment with minutes for about 8-14 games and get a feel for the flow of offensive and defensive efficiency. I think once someone shines as a defense specialist at that 2 spot, we get into that solidified rotation. Then I'd say at the deadline, we move off from the extra banana and trade it in for some assets, a couple 2nds hopefully for someone like AJ green. We have an incredible system and we're gonna be solid, it's a matter of chemistry, which giannis and this core has done twice now.

  2. Thought I'll never say this but I never been so happy to see Frank bac n my life bcuz that other guy didn't kno wat he ws talkn about

  3. Middleton should have been the one to be traded. I hold him responsible for the Bucks failing to win the NBA Championship in the past 2 years. He's just not the same player since his knee injury.

  4. People saying Khris should be traded is crazy as hell and he couldn’t be traded anyway. He’ll be a great 3rd option. Marjon has to start at the 2. Dame, Marjon, Khris, Giannis and Brook. That’s the lineup! I really have faith that this 5 will get it done

  5. Middleton is a vast liability for Bucks right now. Unfortunately he is not 100% healthy almost one year after.

  6. All this Khash Money hate in these comments is disturbing. How quickly we forget he carried us to the finals. How quickly we forget the only game we won against Miami in the playoffs, KHRIS carried us. It was the same story when we played Miami in the bubble, we won one game, and guess who carried us that game? Khris is NOT the problem and he never has been. Sure hes been getting over an injiry for a couple seasons but the impact he's had on this team is irreplaceable. Put some respect on my favorite NBA player's name.

  7. FOr those who favor Khris and say that he is ok – Khris played only 33 games the previous season . C'mon be realistic someday
