Would you trade Amen for Giannis?

Discussion in 'Houston Rockets: Game Action & Roster Moves' started by cml750, May 4, 2025.

?

If the Bucks would not accept Sengun would you trade Amen if that was the only way to get Giannis?

    Depends on Amens extension, if its rookie max I don’t hate this.

    If something lower, keep Amen.

    Giannis is a walking injury, Milwaukee shut him down for fear he would lose his value.

    Hard pass.

    The numbers don't work unless you include Sengun or Bari, and I would not trade any 2 of the 3 together for Giannis.

    No. I would do multiple first round picks.

    For you to bring this up at a time when there is talk of a Alpi for Giannas trade brewing, obviously this is a diversion to shift the talk of a trade elsewhere.....Trump has taught you well.

    Seriously, if Sengun had a 3pt shot I would say keep him. However, he doesn't, so Im torn about trading anyone for Giannas but we have KD now and his window is closing. So, they have to move someone and since Amen is our best player.....IT HAS TO BE SENGUN

    I wouldn't want Giannis for just about anything.

    Absolutely no.

    I am not even sure that I would trade Sengun straight up for him although I know the cap logistics don’t work. I’m just making the point that his game is predicated way, way too much on athleticism.

    he can go somewhere next year and give them a really good shot in the arm as far as a one or two year window, but our roster is not built out for him.


    he should go to San Antonio and push them over the top.

    How many Antetokounmpos are out there? Athletic players always end up like this. Thinking about trading a guy with maybe a year or two left for young talent makes no sense..

    Inactive Players
    MIL: Giannis Antetokounmpo, Thanasis Antetokounmpo, Alex Antetokounmpo

    Actually it doesn’t cap wise. Durant’s cap is like 43, Giannis in the 50’s. And I’m so sure, the Bucks would do that trade! Maybe you were just trying to be funny. If so, sorry.

    If Stone could land Giannis for KD and the corpse of DFS he may actually be the best GM in the league lol.
