Comment on Damian Lillard tears Achilles, ending his season with Bucks on brink of elimination: Source
pdxfed@lemmy.world 4 weeks agoA Portlander, I was rooting for him so hard to get one with the bucks. Seems like it never has lined up the way they needed to, real shame.
Who can afford Giannis if he decides to leave, I guess everyone but where would he want to go? He’d not want to loot his future team so may wait until he’s out of contract to leave so they get him on the free agent. Who would he want to play with who compliments his weaknesses? Who has enough to make it interesting for him?

Yeah it would’ve been nice if the pairing had worked out, maybe a different coach could’ve figured it out.
The market for Giannis is going to be interesting. I think the bucks respect him enough to listen to where he wants to go which would be a contender but with his salary and the bucks wanting picks it does limit that a bit.
Maybe Houston especially if they lose in the first round? OKC has picks and young players but if they win it this year they probably don’t make a major move like that. Maybe a 3 team with the Pelicans involved in some way so the bucks get their own picks back and the Pelicans can shuffle players if they want to change things up?
Probably won’t know until the offseason as we see who underperforms expectations.

If Houston is willing to trade Sengun for Giannis I think that’s the best fit for everybody. Tough decision to make though.
