From Giannis's perspective, you know, Houston would make sense, but from Milwaukee's perspective, all that makes sense to me is getting the best offer, like that, like, that's it.

I don't care who it is.
I'm, I'm taking the best offer, and I, I, I don't know if that's harsh to say, um, considering the career Giannis has had in Milwaukee, but you just gotta take the best deal.
So like if Some surprising team came out of nowhere and traded all their future picks for Giannis.
Like, that's what you get to take.
James, like when you, what's your assessment of that Giannis situation and what the bucks should be targeting in return for him.
Uh, if I'm Milwaukee, I'm calling San Antonio and I'm like, I need #2 and I need Castle and I need something else in the future.
I feel like if I can get Two guys, especially with Castle.

I mean, I was rookie of the year last year.
San Antonio would be the first team that I would call.
I get Brooklyn in a sense, but they don't have anything to, you know, like they have picks.
But I also think that Houston though, it's, it's a tough fit because of what you would have to probably give up, give up to get Giannis.
If it's me and I'm Milwaukee, it's San Antonio.
And even if I'm Giannis, I'm like, send me to San Antonio.
I get to play at Windy.
When he gets to shoot his threes and then it's like good luck trying to score on those two.
If I'm be honest, I don't know if I want to go to the west with with Boston possibly being down or or just the luxury tax and and and and um Jason Tatum's injury.

I might want to stay out, out in the east.
I'd rather stay in the east too if I'm him, like he, he, he's openly talked about the desire to win a second championship.
I, I'm paraphrasing here, but I think he said himself, I consider it a failure if I don't win a 2nd championship.
Uh, you know, Wind Horse reporting on Toronto looking for big fish.
I think Toronto A, like they are open to trying to make a big move, but B, Like Massiah Gry is under so much pressure right now to to progress that team forward.
I think this is like a easing ownership as well, like showing like, hey, we're going for, we're trying.

So I think there's there's two sides of it there with Toronto.
Giannis in Atlanta would be interesting.
Atlanta is one of those teams that's like, they're close, at least still playing team all the time, and obviously Giannis push them over the top, but They don't, I don't believe they control their future as well.
So it has to be like Reesea Shea and probably Jalen Johnson, but yeah, if I'm Milwaukee, like, good, good players, but can you sell your fan base on those two guys?
