2019-2021 peak Middleton had the best pick and roll with Giannis and was a really good playmaker and shooter, really underrated, as a Bucks fan I'd value peak Middleton like a peak Draymond, in terms of importance in the team. but this Middleton is a shell of himself. I really wish he could go back to his former self, but I think the Bucks should let go of him like the Warriors did Klay, or the Spurs to Parker. At this point paying someone too much just because of their legacy and memories while also trying to contend is not really smart. that could be space for better role players or a borderline allstar player. I think the Bucks just see a lot of potential on AJ Green and Andre Jackson Jr, to just give KMidd the time to heal

The NBA Cup needs to be longer to matter more. I think there should be at least 8, preferably 10, group play games spread out over a longer period. And I don't think Vegas should host any games. You want to see a crowd get into the game and have a real dog in the fight. So, I think for the semis and final game, just host it at the court of the team with the better overall season record. Simple fix overall. I love the NBA Cup though, both in concept and mostly in practice. They're fun games and it's a great idea. Already probably my favorite part of the regular season. Just think it needs a few tweaks.

Thoughts on this idea? The NBA Cup incentive should be (asides from money and trophy) the winning team can move up 1 seed from their position at the end of regular season. If the Cup winning team finishes as the #1 seed anyway, then they are guaranteed home court in the Finals over the other Conference’s #1. And perhaps, if the Cup winning team will finish with Finals home court advantage anyway, then maybe they get a Bye win on the first playoffs game so they start the first series with automatic 1-0 record. This way the incentive affects all teams and all players and not just money that means more to bench players than superstars. Also, this Position Seeding prize effects something further down the road so teams still have to fight for the “chance” while integrating the drama of the whole season and not just a known fixed thing like walking away with some cash and call it a day.
