I don't think y'all understand how much it pains me to watch Milwaukee, another small market team, go all in over and over again despite never having any real blue chip assets
Good for them. I bet winning is addicting
No he doesn't, as he leaves out a big difference the bucks have fricking Giannis a top 2 player who stays healthy so it's easy to go all in and ship out draft picks when you have to keep him happy. We don't have that luxury we can't go all in for Zion when he hasn't shown he can stay on the fricking court.
And rember how many times we went all in on AD but he proved to be a beta bitch who can't carry a team like Giannis.

It's a bad take. Or a poorly thought out one. Giannis allows the Bucks to go all in over and over. If Zion can get on a Giannis trajectory, the Pels can do the same. The least amount of games Giannis has played in a season is 63. Zion has yet to play that many games in a season. As with most things, it hinges on Zion's availability. It's hard to go "all-in" when your MVP-level talent is only playing in 35% of the games.

And Giannis is also finally making some noise about potentially leaving. Comparing their situation to ours is down right moronic.

Let's see if Dame holds true to his threats of not showing up if he were not dealt to Miami.

He's already tweeted and said Go Bucks or something to that affect

It's such a stupid take. The Bucks had just been to the ECF when they went "all in" for Jrue. Now they've won a title and been a clear contender the 2 years after that. It makes sense for them to go all in again for Dame.
Is there an example of a mediocre team like the pels going "all in" when they've shown no reason to do so? I can't think of one right now

If anything, people should be upset the pels didn't take a step back and trade for Scoot. Cuz whatever the frick we're doing now hasn't worked in 4 years and we're already injured to start this season

The Pels during the Anthony Davis era. The T'wolves trading for Gobert. THOSE WORKED OUT GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Exactly, and trading for Dame with this team is like a couple having a baby to try and fix their failing marriage. It doesn't fix what was wrong in the first place
Posted on 9/27/23 at 3:19 pm to Balsamic_duck
Sometimes it does if having the baby was the major issue for the couple to begin with. The major issue on this team is getting superstars who can win. Dame would fit the bill. Regardless, hes a buck now.

Its so strange we run the same team back like we’re the denver nuggets who have consistently made the playoffs and have a healthy superstar with multiple mvps and we just need luck to breakthrough in the playoffs. Having self awareness of yourself and your team is a talent in itself- something Griffin clearly doesn’t have.

Dude hasn’t been the same since we didn’t trade for Scoot. He honestly fully believed we were going to trade for Scoot- been going everything antiPels since then.

What? The major issue is health. Where does Dame get us if BI and Zion are playing 40 games a year? we'd be in the exact same spot just a lot more poor
