    Poor Bucks and Giannis. I was hoping they’d leave us with fiddle sticks. I mean, Pat Connaughton? Nooooooooooo!!!

    Giannis is in his nexus prime. Unless he gets injured, this pick isn't better than #25

    Time for Stone to get serious and give this guy a call:

    Does Stone have little figurines of the Bucks players at home that he is putting pins in?


    On their pre-season: essentially they gave a bunch of guys a rest, they are vets and will be fine once the season proper rolls around.
    I'll say pick 26 (sadly)

    It would be nice to get an 18 - 22 FRP rather than later pick. Hopefully this helps us out, although I doubt it since so many teams are in the Wemby sweepstakes so wins should come by really easily this year.

    No better? They were just slotted at #24 this last season.

    jokes aside unless Greek Superman misses substantial time the pick will not be better than 22 or 23 and even that would need quite a bit of negative team stuff going on.

    This is gonna be a low pick and tbh I dont see that dude making the roster since we are already overflowing with young guys. Unless the upcoming draft is deep AF might be better to roll over this asset into a future period.

    Sengun, Jabari, Tari, Green, KPJ
    Tate, Tyty, KJ Martin, Josh Christopher, Bruno, Garuba
    Matthews, Nix
    EG, Boban
    2 ways: Darius Days, Hudgins

    Maybe Matthews or Nix end up being cuts I dont really know. Thing is Matthews has a great deal and I'd be loathe to cut him and Nix hasnt really blown up so I see him signing for the same deal that Matthews and Bruno got.

    Yeah reality is low frps rarely pan out and you can usually get just as good players from undrafted or FA vagabonds. Like Bruno Fernando is much better than Kai Jones and I'm sure Sterling Brown or Nwaba are better than JC at this point in time.

    I like how everyone is chalking this pick up as low frp. We all did the same thing last year with the Brooklyn pick and netted us Eason. I will enjoy rooting against Milwaukee all season long.
