We will have alot of centers on the roster. Henson at least has been working on his 3 point shot.

3pt specialist.
Even if the pick is heavily protected, hard not to be excited about this deal.

Henson is not coming in to do anything on the court for quite awhile. He's sidelined indefinitely after tearing a ligament in his left wrist a few weeks ago and undergoing surgery.

This is a move in the right direction to build the roster. Henson won't play for a while because he just had surgery but this move will make it easier to trade TT at the deadline if we have a deal on the table. He is a better shot blocker than TT and if he can keep his 3 pt shot at a decent percentage, he can be a more modern center than TT.

He can shoot 3s? I thought he was hot garbage. Shows how little I follow Milwaukee

I don't know why anyone think this makes TT more tradeable. TT is much better. Henson is definitely not an ideal replacement.
If you move TT; its if you get value for him back. Plain and simple. Henson should have no equation at all on trading Tristan.

I'm not saying he is a direct minutes for minutes replacement but he adds another center to the group to soak up TTs minutes if he leaves. If Henson can hit 3s at a decent percentage, get rebounds, and block shots, he will get minutes. It's easier to move TT if we have Nance, Henson, and Zizic to take over the center minutes than just Nance, Frye on a one year deal, and Zizic.

He's not a starting caliber player, at, all...
I don't think the Cavs have any serious interest in Henson. They did this trade for the picks.
Bucks did this trade to clear salary and be players in free agency.
Delly is a fan favorite. Henson was a throw in.
I doubt he's in the plans at all.

We have been linked to Henson for years though. He has always been a rumored target for the Cavs.

Right now, TT is the best player on this team. And he's not that old...
I don't think you trade Tristan unless you get back really good value. And if you trade him because of Henson, well, that's just beyond fucking stupid.
Because Henson is no where nearly as good as TT. I'm not a big TT fan either. But he's definitely better by a pretty wide margin.

They were linked to him a few years ago, when we still needed a rim protector.
But I think the Cavs cooled off on him. Thing is, he never plays very much and its for a reason.
He's a low IQ player. I think when we see him play, and hopefully its not a lot. We're going to see why he was buried on the bench a lot.
I don't think he's very good at all. Again, it doesn't matter, because the trade wasn't centered around him.
He was just a throw in that the Bucks wanted to get rid of.

I don't think we trade TT because we have Henson and we think he is our center of the future. I think if we trade TT, we see the potential value in assets and having a core of Nance, Zizic, and Henson in place that can soak up the center minutes without hurting the development of our young players.
