Jaylen Brown to the 76ers for Paul George, 2 firsts and 2 seconds.

I still would have preferred the Celtics deal for Giannis as I think the Bucks could have gotten their picks back from Portland plus a pick or two from Boston.

That Jaylen Brown trade may be as bad as the Luka deal. We should have tried Herro and Turner with a couple picks (maybe like top 5 protected) for Brown.

yeah to go from getting Giannis for him to PG is horrible. I do think the bucks needs to hold on to picks after years and years of going all in to appease GA. I did check your trade proposal is valid and would have been better I think than Paul George.

Bucks are signing Kam Jones to a 2 way contract. There are questions on what he can do at his height, but Kolek had those same questions.  I just watched that guy shoot the heck out of the basketball for most of his time at Marquette.

He had a pretty rough rookie season and experience but he also was dealing with a pretty significant back injury that delayed his entire season by several months. There were likely stronger 2-Way candidates but it's always nice to see a Wisco or Marquette guy get a hometown opportunity.
