I'm not convinced that he gone unless he can create a super team that has a chance to win which i don't think is possible right now.

Bucks guard Sterling Brown Getty Imageshttps://nypost.com/2018/06/19/cop-in-sterling-brown-arrest-joked-about-beating-j-r-smith-too/
An officer in the controversial Sterling Brown arrest spread racist messages on Facebook, according to posts Brown’s legal team is using as part of its defense.
In light of Brown’s lawsuit filed Tuesday against the city of Milwaukee and its police department for using a stun gun on him after he was confronted over a parking violation, officer Erik A. Andrade’s social media presence became a new point of interest.
Not long after Brown, a 23-year-old Bucks guard, was arrested in January, Andrade apparently made light of the incident on Facebook, while also engaging with other Facebook users about what happened.
“Nice meeting Sterling Brown of the Milwaukee Bucks at work this morning!” Andrade wrote on his page, according to the suit. “Lol #FearTheDeer.”
It is unclear if Andrade sent the alleged post while Brown was still in police custody or shortly after his release.
The controversial posts continued after the run-in with Brown, the court documents indicate.
Four months after Brown was wrestled to the ground by several officers in a Walgreens parking lot, Andrade allegedly mocked the situation on Facebook — this time with Cavaliers guard J.R. Smith on the receiving end.
After Game 1 of the NBA Finals, when Smith mistakenly dribbled out the clock at the end of regulation on the way to a Cavaliers loss, Andrade suggested that Smith deserved to be treated the same way Brown was when the Milwaukee officers got physical with him, as recently released bodycam footage shows.
“I hope JR Smith double parks in Walgreens handicap Parkin spots when he’s in Milwaukee!” read the alleged post.
Brown’s defense team pointed to the posts on Brown and Smith as well as numerous examples of racist memes and ideas appearing throughout Andrade’s Facebook page, which allegedly included a post making fun of NBA Finals MVP Kevin Durant’s hair. The officer also shared posts, the suit says, that claimed African-Americans lie to the police, with photos of Brown attached to the messages.
By Mariosalic Go To Postthat's at least a 3 day suspension with payWe don't know the whole story
Trae (a baller but just too small and too much of a defensive liability to make it in the league)
Marvin (I think he won't work at center unless he bulks up. If he has to play the 4 he will have to develop a quicker release.)
MPJ (his back has to be bad if he fell to 14. I think injuries will lead to a short career)

3 busts
ayton (wont be an absolute bust but will be clearly worse than doncic and jjj)
mpj (6'10 harrison barnes with a terrible back)
sexton (6'1 dudes with no pg skills are never good)
and trae will likely be a bust relative to draft spot

I'm afraid for the Cavs that the 3rd Holliday brother will be better than Sexton.. (Sexton reminds me of a younger Dunn..)

By giririsss Go To PostSorry Elfrid, time you go find something you actually like doingShould have cut his hair earlier... he might be a nice discount pickup.
Enes Kanter still debating whether or not to pick up his player option worth $18.6 million for the 2018-19 season.Dude this is not a hard decision... you aren't getting 20 million on the open market.
Most opposing teams expect Kanter to opt in, but should he opt out and hit the open market, he will be pursued by multiple teams - including the Bucks - according to Ian Begley of ESPN. The 26-year-old center is coming off one of his best statistical seasons, but it could still be tough for him to command that sort of salary as a free agent due to his issues on the defensive end of the floor.
By DY_nasty Go To Postclearing out those minutes for brandon knightI feel bad for knight in many ways. That many injuries in a row is pretty disastrous for anyone's career.
Not sure how he fits on the suns anymore though. But he can't be worse than Ulis was last year.
By blackace Go To PostIt's kinda crazy how quiet it has been…League waiting on a few big domino's to fall I guess. but i'm not even sure teams are allowed to re-sign / trade players yet?
By giririsss Go To PostLeague waiting on a few big domino's to fall I guess. but i'm not even sure teams are allowed to re-sign / trade players yet?They can't, but the lack of any type of rumors is crazy
IIRC everything was quiet last year then a day or two before the CP3 trade happened and things picked up from there
By pilonv1 Go To PostIIRC everything was quiet last year then a day or two before the CP3 trade happened and things picked up from thereI remembered more news... maybe teams really think they got a shot at LBJ or PG13 this season...🤷
By blackace Go To PostIt's kinda crazy how quiet it has been…Lebron free agency year, 2010 was so hard lol that year was nuts
Paul George might actually be the one holding the cards. If he surprises by staying with OKC then it's a huge blow for LeBron to LA.
If he goes to LA then LeBron signs, and Kawhi starts working over time to kill his trade value to anywhere but LA.

That low ass release would get killed by any decent defender

If he surprises by staying with OKC then it's a huge blow for LeBron to LA.they arent going to trade kawhi to LA no matter what he wants, they have him for a year. bron will stay in CLE, pg and him wont even make it past WCF.

By Random Ass Username Go To PostKeeping someone who plainly doesn't want to be there sounds dumb as hell.If he doesn't play again it hurts his stock a lot...
he might not want to be there but he almost has to play
By Random Ass Username Go To PostWhile that's true it's just a shitty atmosphere and doesn't help the rest of the team move forward.You ban him from the facilities.
It's not great for the team, but it's not great for the player either. Hurts both. If the Spurs can't find a trade they want, then they're not obligated to trade him. He has to wait until Free Agency. Not playing it out properly makes you look really unprofessional. Even kyrie finished out the year with LBJ, Even if they didn't talk to each other.
But it hurts the org... in obvious ways. Though you'd think the spurs have reputation to burn... and come out clean.
By Random Ass Username Go To PostWhile that's true it's just a shitty atmosphere and doesn't help the rest of the team move forward.It's better than getting forced to deal him to a team in your conference for peanuts...Some GM going to bite on the rental
I love it when fans say shit like this
Like Sam going to place 27 mil on the bench
If melo plays like shit again, or doesn't hustle. He's coming off the bench or being traded
Like Sam going to place 27 mil on the bench
By diehard Go To Postthey would more likely just do a buyoutGMs don't really look good from buyouts unless that was your plan from get...
By blackace Go To PostGMs don't really look good from buyouts unless that was your plan from get…they also don't look good having to play a crappy player minutes just because of what he is getting paid though

Clay ain't about that giving money away life
By blackace Go To PostClay ain't about that giving money away lifeEh, buyouts don't usually look bad if the player was playing like trash on your team.
