Bucks might get Rose. If they do they will be appointment viewing.

Rose Middleton Parker Giannis and Maker could be insanely good. Especially since Parker learned to shoot last year. If Giannis' 3pt shooting also improves. Thats now the most athletic team in the NBA with Unlimited spacing and a PG who can trigger them.

Philly is probably the single most interesting regular season team this year
for 10 games before everyone gets hurt

Rose is like maybe the single worst point guard imaginable to pair with Giannis

J crossover is probably going to get bought out by Atlanta. What team do you think he ll sign with? Somewhere on the east is probably best for him

Minny could use someone who can shoot past 20 ft... and a bench.

Utah may or may not be missing some scoring.

Not sure I can name NOP's starting SG

He'll probably end up who ever has the most money available after guys like Waiters, Gay, KCP, Otto Porter make their decision. Like Wiz might be interested if they don't match Porter.

Utah has plenty of guards with Rubio, Burks, Exum, Mitchell, and Hood. That's not even factoring in Hayward returning.

I like the Pelicans idea. Moore is their starter but he's more a 3 and D guy. Crawford would compliment him nicely. That is if New Orleans even has any money to offer after the Holiday signing.

MCW, Rubio and Rondo would be way worse
Click to expand...

I'd definitely take Rubio and would at least consider Rondo over him. Rubio is a much better defender and somehow provides better spacing (>30% vs. <22% from 3). He is also, obviously, an elite passer. He's not a perfect fit, but he isn't going to actively impede your young core's development in any way. Rondo is a bad fit in just about every way, but his perimeter shooting and defense is still better than Rose's. And at least MCW would be dirt cheap. Rose is a tire fire on defense and actively hurts your young core's offensive development if he is your starting point guard. He only makes sense as a cheap deal in a bench role at this point unless your franchise is a catastrophe like the Knicks. If the Bucks could get him for something like the MLE then maybe, but otherwise yikes.

Yeah you're right, I forgot Rubio improved his shooting last year

Feel so bad for Rose though

I am done with the Cs after Danny botched this off-season and if they trade away firsts to get rid of Henson/Teletovich/Hawes just to get the tattered remains of Rose like they are considering I am done with the Bucks as well.

This would be the Vasquez trade all over again. An awful win now move that didn't make sense at the time and won't make make sense afterwards when Rose spends most of the season on the sidelines like Vasquez.

You just wasted all your future assets in a classic eastern conference mismanagement move.

To be honest. I would be shocked to see Rose get more then the MLE. Who's going to pay him more? Right now 14 teams have more then the MLE to spend, but only 4 are possibly looking for a point guard. Rose's non MLE options are essentially the Knicks or Orlando and its possible that neither would want him.

It didn't even occur to me that Milwaukee would be trading a first to dump salary because i thought Rose had no value. Milwaukee need a fast/athletic PG, but shouldn't be spending money over the MLE. Just get Ian Clark in Free Agency.

The only potentially availiable PG that Milwaukee should even consider giving up a first round pick for is CJ McCollum.

Celtics after missing Hayward.

They need scoring. Thomas may be out months with a hip injury. One year 15 mil.

Hayward waited until July 4th to announce his decision?

July 4th. America's birthday.

Philadelphia.

Hayward is basically a piece for a potential big 3 or 4. Celtics still getting that work because their 2nd best player and scoring option would be 5'11 with shoes on. IT couldn't even get to the paint last year.
