Since the Bucks won the title they have played 3 playoff games where Giannis, Khris, and Jrue finished the game and 0 where Giannis & Dame have. That is some damn bad injury luck.

Middleton sucks and is never available. Gotta try something different to keep Giannis happy.

I get the availabilty concerns, but he certainly doesn't suck. He put up 20+ points in 3 out of the last 4 games coming from the bench. He's certainly better than Kyle Kuzma.
Getting rid of Middleton for squat isn't going to make Giannis happy.

Kuzma is a better player than he’s shown this season in Washington. I blame the Wizard franchise for a good part of that. Just an uninspiring organization to play for.
Kuzma’s availability is already a big win. His youth is something the Bucks sorely need. I hate seeing Middleton go out like this but it’s the nature of professional sports.
Hopefully playing next to Giannis breeds some play accountability in Kuzma and he performs as the player he was a few years ago. In my mind this deal is a win for the Bucks, albeit a small one.

Hope you are right, but it isn't sounding like anyone thinks this is good for us. Seems more like a move to get under the 2nd apron. I don't like having to give up AJ Johnson in the deal either.

I also get where you are coming from… but to me, the sheer amount of availability concerns he has makes him completely undesirable and not dependable. Therefor, in my warped thinking, he sucks
Yes. I just heard Damian Lilliard is out the rest of the season with a blood clot. But this year's team isn't championship caliber anyway.

As a Knicks fan, no defensive foot movement and way too many turnovers by you guys

Kevin Porter Jr has been a revelation. That dude provides spark at both ends and has really jelled with Giannis. Infectious energy and grit. I don’t know how he played for the numerous other teams in his career but he’s been dynamite since arriving in Milwaukee.
