re: Jrue to Bucks for Bledsoe, George Hill and draft picks

will we really keep Zo, Bledsoe and Hill at PG? someone is moving and I think the Knicks will want one of them.

Of course he wanted a top 10 pick. But him making it that big of a deal was simply to make every other team throw in extra fillers who didn't have a top 10 pick. I mean we have been talking about needing a facilitator for a while now. So what we trade him for a top 10? The same idiots on here will be bitching about how we don't have a vet PG to help groom Killian or whoever we get. I feel like some of you are cool with trotting JJ out to play PG and run our team. Some of y'all sound fricking stupid. Hill is an expiring, Lonzo is a big question mark, and JJ has value on top of us knowing he is gone next year. The only player I care about having on this team besides BI, Zion, and Hart is Bledsoe right now.

Well he can certainly be the second guy in Milwaukee with Giannis as Brogdan covers up a lot of Holiday’s weaknesses. I think he’s going to suddenly get to the line a lot more than he did here and his efficiency should go up as he won’t be relied on on carry the offensive load. He’s in a good situation to play to his strengths.

Griffin did a good job explaining to the world how he’s a super star. I kept seeing him disappear in games and then show flashes of incredible play.

I was referring to Bogdanovic who they got from Sacramento.

Its really simple honestly. Lonzo will either take JJ/ Jrues role or he is gone. JJ may be gone but won't be here after next year. Hill is an expiring. So right now Bledsoe/ NAW are our PGs going forward. Lonzo, JJ, and Hart are our SGs. If we really are targeting Killian or another PG/SG then Lonzo, JJ, and NAW are the ones that would be shipped. I didn't add Hill because I'm not sure what his trade value is.

Lonzo as a SG? A SG who can't shoot, sucks at FTs and can't finish.

Barf.

His upside was a dominant defending PG with Kidd like playmaking ability.

If he's not that, he's not worth keeping. The dude is a brickmaker.

I think that Bucks team is kinda set up to have Giannis and then several #2 guys. Giannis gets into foul trouble sometimes and Middleton can also go cold. They are relying more on Jrue and Bogdon to have those big games when the other 2 struggle. So yes they are gonna go in there and expect him to be the #2 guy when he needs to be.

Bledsoe has 3 years remaining without the final year being guaranteed. If we draft a guard right now Bledsoe is the vet PG that helps our pick get better and also brings some skill sets that we lost with Jrue. JJ and Hill are gone after this season. If we can move either of them for value then it is worth it. I have no clue if our FO wants to pay Lonzo or what they'd want to pay Lonzo but he's not untouchable by the least bit and he's the best chance of getting that top 10 pick everyone wants.

I think JJ is going to stick around to help SVG out with the kids, since they are close.

I wouldn't be overly surprised if Hill is moved, but I also don't think it's a bad thing to go from zero primary facilitators to 2 of them.

I would say a large portion of this has to do with how conversations have gone in regards to an extension. I think the Pels do want to see what they have in him, in an off guard role, which he will be able to show this year playing next to Bledsoe. He can still be traded next offseason, via sign and trade, if that is the route that the Pels want to go. My best guess is that they at least go into the season with Lonzo and possibly make a move at the trade deadline if the fit isn't there.
