Just saw. Is he restricted?

The Bucks are a super intriguing team. Certainly not near a contender yet, but could be in a few years.

Nope, he took the qualifying offer last offseason. He's a Buck.

Wow. That's crazy. Bucks snagging free agents over the Lakers and Knicks. Oh, the times we live in.

So the bucks get to pair one of the leagues best perimeter defenses with one of the leagues worst rim protectors. They might be the antidote for 3 point shooting teams that are scared of the paint

Maybe Wade is holding out til the last second so a desperate team will offer him the max and it forces the Heat's hand to pay him or let him walk.

Monroe to the Bucks and Lopez working on a deal with the Knicks--- which would potentially suggest the Lakers are gonna strike out everywhere

It was reported that LMA was not impressed by Lakers. Any thoughts on what made the Lakers seem worse in person?

Kobe saying he needs a number two to free him up for open looks? Burton Scott explaining his revolutionary contested 2 point jumper offense

The sell would have basically been hey cone here, waste the next year on a team that has no shot, then when the cap explodes we might be able to get Durant.

It was never an option for top guys. The only positive thing they have is a rookie who has never played a game, and Randle who missed last season.

Windhorst seems to think the Lakers plan-to-contention isn’t very realistic or appealing to players. Also, the fact that Kobe still sees himself as “the guy”/#1 option when he’s clearly on his last legs is a turn-off to guys as well.

Bucks are so long and athletic everywhere else with interchangeable pieces that I truly think they will be a top 4 in the East next year now that they have Monroe to help get buckets in half court...

Think Charlotte in Jeffersons first year there, with a younger Carmelo in Jabari to help in half court

Man have not seen you post in ages. Yeah I see them making the second round in the eastern conference. See Bulls Cavs ECF next year as most obvious pick.
