See what makes me mad is the Wolves is a championship contender and we sitting here worried about money. Meanwhile Philly believes in their center and gives him a massive extension. Philly trying to win a ship. Boston already won a ship and trying to win another one. Meanwhile people on social media talking bout Minnesota looking towards the long term future. What type of crap are they selling?

Because fans are stupid and believe anything. The owners can't come out and say they just don't want to pay KAT 220, so they spin it about "Ant's timeline" despite KAT only being 28 and them JUST gutting their future draft picks to get Rudy.

But you’re ok paying him 200 mill to avg 14 a game :beli:

And anyway thats more media/narrative takes instead of basketball takes. I don’t care what he’s getting paid. And if there’s ever a coach that doesn’t care, it’s Thibs.

We’ve seen this movie before; it isn’t automatic that you start your 5 best biggest names. It may be best to stagger them and have one come off the bench. If they start Kat at the 5 yea OG starts but I’m not convinced their best starting lineup isn’t Kat at the 4 next to Mitch. And if so, I’d rather go Brunson-Hart-Bridges with OG a super 6th man. He’s still gonna be an integral piece, close, get minutes, earn his money, etc.

If everybody (but Brunson) isn’t ready to sacrifice this won’t work. But I think it will bc they’re all low key type dudes
Whenever Mitch is back (and not traded lol) I fully expect to see a starting 5 of

JB
Bridges
OG
KAT
Mitch

That’s assuming Mitch automatically moves back into being the starting 5.

Hopefully KAT level up as the 5 and we bring Mitch off the bench instead. shyt that’s how it was when he came back last year and IHart was holding down the 5 spot.

That’s not going to happen as the Bucks don’t have the picks or young players to do it.

Just saw Middleton not yet cleared for 5on5 after having surgery on both ankles this summer.

So basically he’ll be outta shape and on a minutes restriction. Again. Doc Rivers still the coach too.

Season a month away and Bucks already in trouble
