[@llkingproductionsl2154]

i agree fs, imo the heat lost there control of thee situation when scoot henderson went 3rd to the blazers because it solidified that guard spot for the future. if they got brandon miller they would have probably accepted a herro trade

[@ChrisbeFoSerious]

No they didn’t. Blazers got fucked in this trade. Ayton is a solid player, but not anything close to enough value for Lillard. They didn’t want another ball-dominant guard… but got Jrue, an aging player that they’ll need to flip. Those picks determine everything, and I highly doubt they’ll be worth much, let alone being as good or better than Herro, Jovic, & Jaquez.

[@NotOneToFly]

@@ChrisbeFoSerious Needing to flip Jrue is fine; that's a good position to be in. They'll end up with even more first rounders when they're done. They didn't need Herro, they have Scoot and Simons, and Ayton is better than Jovic (though I do like Jovic). They made the right choice; Riley is a stiff.

[@ChrisbeFoSerious]

@@NotOneToFly they could have flipped Herro just like they’re gonna Jrue-plus him being so young and on a new contract gives you more timeline to explore things- If they don’t find an adequate Jrue trade before the year ends (his contract isn’t easy to move), then they lose him for nothing. This move was super high risk with little guaranteed reward.

I agree with Jrue, I liked him as a third option on that title run. The issue was always with Middleton, who played like a superstar sometimes and just as quickly realized he wasn't that guy. He's an inconsistent 2nd option, so hopefully him falling down to 3rd in the pecking order will benefit the team. Dame and Giannis will be scary on offense.

[@mrip31]

@@NotOneToFly That's not an accurate assessment at all.

[@NotOneToFly]

@@mrip31 I was oversimplifying, but I still think I'm right. A better way to say it is that Jrue is point guard Jimmy. The main issue with that being that Miami needs a high volume 3-pt shooter at the point to make the spacing work and with Jrue they get another guard who is really good in the paint. Jrue certainly takes more threes than Jimmy, but I don't think he adds enough spacing to a roster that is going to need it without Struss (and potentially Herro). I will say, Jrue's shot profile does not have as much overlap with Jimmy as I thought it did. Jrue doesn't shoot as much midrange as I thought, though he does shoot a lot of close midrange, same as Jimmy. It could definitely work, and his temperament would fit Miami well. That said, if they wouldn't give Portland enough for Dame, I can't imagine they'll offer enough for Jrue.

Because the biggest barrier for them to reach the finals remains a guy named Jokic, and this trade makes them even worse at containing him. If you think Ayton was bad at guarding Jokic, wait till you see Nurkic try to do it, if he can stay on the court, of course. :)

[@nighthiker]

@@mateo02_ As a Nuggets fan, I know Nurkic and Bol Bol quite well. Believe me when I say they have no chance at staying on the court with Jokic. The Ayton/Landale tandem was much better in that regard - even though it looked like they were completely helpless - I guess that's what jokic does to you once he eventually figures you out. I believe the Suns were a much better team before they traded for Durant. More precisely, the mid range game they depend on so highly today inherently has too much variance - if they get a huge showing from two of Durant, Booker and KD they have great chances, but that's unsustainable, as we saw last season. To me they had a better core and were much more balanced pre-Durant. But that's the NBA for you - owners/GMs have no patience and still fold to the superstar culture that brings notoriety and attendance. It's a business first and foremost, after all - making money is the priority, winning comes second. But we'll have to wait and see how it goes on the actual court if they meet again in the playoffs. Cheers and good luck! ;)

Now as for my prediction as to how this is going to work out, aside from injuries, another huge thing is going to be EGO.

I see a lot more pick and pops being established on the Bucks offense. It is similar to how Clyde Drexler was brought to Houston to be paired up with Hakeem. The Rockets already had great 3 point shooters such as Kenny Smith, Sam Cassell, Vernon Maxwell, Mario Elie, and Robert Horry. The Bucks already have great 3 point shooters such as Brook Lopez (37.4%), Bobby Portis (37.0%), Malik Beasley (35.7%), Jae Crowder (43.6%), and Khris Middleton will be a better 3 point shooter this season.

[@fortynights1513]

The early 2020’s is going to be an interesting time in the NBA when we look back at it. We saw a few Superteams failing (hello Nets), and we saw arguably a bit more of a variety of teams making deeper playoff appearances (2021 being the poster child for that). These two should be an intriguing duo, and a new look Bucks team that could go far.

[@GeorgePerakis]

The 2023 Heat finals run was a coordinated chokejob on the part of coach Bud and the entire Celtics roster. The Nuggets folded them in five games. That shit's embarrassing. That should not happen again, not with Miami's current roster. I don't see them getting past a Bucks team with a new coach that knows when to call a timeout and a star that can reliably close out games without getting hacked at the free throw line. As for the Celtics, if they manage to choke away a series again they should blow up their whole roster and pray their next batch of recruits don't turn out to be perrennial choke artists.

[@playlist1883]

@GeorgePerakis you're harsh ! Coach bud's brother died during the series if I'm not mistaken. Which is a more than valid reason to make mistakes imo. As for the Celtics... well, as far as I know, you're right, but they also made moves during these past few days that address these issues.

i cant get to remember the last time i felt so afraid from the result of a trade as i am right now.. we had block buster trades in the past few years but none of them looked so prone to success as this one

This is wild!

That intro is basically everyones reaction

[@kennethoxley2525]

For the record, I suggested this general idea. I dismissed it because I didn't see a good return in a two-way trade (ditto for a trade with the Heat).

Hopefully the coaching doesn't let the tremendous amount of talent this team has down

[@peskypesky]

Blockbuster trade! Dame and Giannis will be a fearsome duo.

[@zyshawnmoore551]

I could not believe it when I first saw it I thought it was clickbait, but what the hell?! Miami was supposed to get Dame, but Milwaukee got him instead? Speechless...

This team with Brook, Giannis and Dame is giving me shades of the Love/Lebron/Kyrie Cavs honestly. Obviously 35 year old Brook is not prime Kevin Love but he is an elite shotblocker and the Bucks also still have Khris, who, when healthy, is a reliable 20 ppg wing, so there's a lot of talent on this team. If someone called them a superteam I wouldn't argue that point too hard but they took an already really good team, subtracted an allstar and added a superstar, and that's not really what we call a "superteam", players didn't conspire to join forces and win rings, this just kinda happened because it was a smart move. The team is a little topheavy now they still have a strong sixth man and some reliable rotational players so I think it's all up to Giannis now to win a second, and maybe a third ring. We'll see. Maybe this will be the dynasty to rule the 2020s for a while. Dame might age super well, like Curry or Paul, we could see like five seasons of Dame and Giannis contending for rings togetger consistently. Bit optimistic but you never know.
