The problem for the Bucks and people don’t mention this, but their resources were already tapped and got fukked over even more by the new CBA. Quite a few teams did as it was too late to pivot or move differently once it was announced.

Ask a lot of those teams would have made different moves or not traded away picks so easily if they knew the changes that were coming and they’d say yes.

It was essentially the end of his tenure there and only now just a matter of when he’ll be moved.
This is all anyone mentions :heh:. Its not like these changes were made unilaterally or out of nowhere. These are changes the majority of owners wanted so every team's owner either wanted it or knew it was being pushed for by their peers.

All of these changes the last 30 years have had one purpose...save owners money/give them more control. No sympathy, no excuses. We put so much at the feet of players and have all these expectations...expecting them to give their all and sacrifice, meanwhile owners doing everything in their power to avoid competing and stack their bread.

Which doesn't change anything about what I said considering that teams like the Bucks, Nets, and Suns had mortgaged all of their assets to win now years before the new CBA was finalized.

Knowing its coming has nothing to do with knowing its coming? :pachaha:

The absolute worst talking point in sports is "the future". If you got a shot to win now, you go for it. They went for it, one got a chip and the other 2 got purty jumpers and bags. Life be like that sometimes :manny:.

You never get equal value in return when you trade away a star. Sengun would’ve been better than anything else out to offer. Hell most the bucks fanbase on their forum voted for the Sengun package. They know the window has closed
