Milwaukee Bucks News

The Giannis thing is a real story because when given the chance to personally deny it at media day Giannis said it’s true he considered his options because he’s tired of losing in the first round. I get people don’t want to hear that but he literally said that. It’s a story.

Banton had no shortage of overseas interest but held out for an NBA opportunity. Dallas' roster is realistically full but (as with Jeremiah Robinson-Earl) it gets Banton's G League rights. Dallas is also still working to obtain Dennis Smith Jr.'s G League rights from the Bucks.

I think that’s right, though trading him a year from now as an expiring would necessarily lower his value relative to what they could have gotten this summer (better than Kawhi but still). Related question is how much (if anything) the Bucks would sacrifice to honor a trade request to a specific team.

The Knicks only have swaps in 26, 28, 30 and 32 plus a protected Wiz 26 first (if it lands 9 to 30). A very empty clip of draft picks…and where is KAT or OG or Bridges going to acquire enough value to flip for Giannis? That is why the Bucks didn’t take seriously any trade talks!

As per Shams, the Bucks and the Knicks engaged in Giannis trade talks this year🤯 Who's stopping this duo in the East?

Anyway unless there’s a third team involved I don’t see any way a Knicks Bucks trade makes sense. If the Bucks aren’t good enough to win with Giannis and their current roster what is swapping him out for Towns and one first round pick doing for Milwaukee?

Just when we nearly got a Bucks season free of so much expectation and pressure this drops and suddenly every game and moment is going to be analyzed in the Giannis leaving lens. Yeesh

BUCKS WIN!

I didn’t have Chris Livingston pure pull up middie on my bingo card but he’s had a nice collection of buckets this fourth quarter. Continues to score when he gets the minutes in these settings.

Pete Nance up to 14 points for the Bucks with eight fourth-quarter points. On the night, Nance is 4-of-6 from 3. Bucks up, 89-85, with 3:31 left in Miami.

Fourth triple from Pete Nance!

Dre with the steal and the slam!

Solid start to the fourth quarter for Andre Jackson Jr. with a few energy plays. Got a dunk off a steal, created an easy bucket for Tyler Smith.

Through three.

Quick 8 points in the quarter for Rollins.

Heading to the fourth, the Heat are up 71-68. Bucks are testing out everyone tonight. Let's see if whoever they throw out there can bring it home.

After three quarters, the Heat lead, 71-68.

Amir Coffey is currently playing with Andre Jackson Jr, Jamaree Bouyea, Pete Nance, and Jericho Sims. So no I do not think his roster spot is promised

Jamaree Bouyea, Amir Coffey, Gary Harris, Andre Jackson Jr. and Pete Nance now for the Bucks.
