I'm just here for sports news

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

Bucks are gonna kill their near future by signing Kuminga and giving Gary Trent Jr a 3-4yr contract I'm so fuckin out on this sport bro. No wonder GTJ played like one of the worst players in the league last year dude knew he was getting paid regardless

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

@ChefTrillie He stalls a team's offense more than anyone I've ever seen. Doesn't pass, takes 15 seconds to back someone down before shooting a heavily contested middy. One of the worst defenders itl. Just pray he can retain 40+% from 3

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

@OppPackGiannis Tari and Watson gonna get more than MLE money. Wouldn't mind Mamu at like $7-8mil/yr, probably gets a little more tho. If they don't bring back Ous, maybe take a shot on Ziare? All the other good FAs dont fit our timeline so I'd rather they save for next year

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

If the "handshake deal" thing is true, I'm sorry but Horst gotta pull a shiesty like Morey did Harden lmao. GTJ was legitimately one of the worst players itl last year and we have way too many guards. We can make it up to Rich Paul some other way

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

This would kill any excitement I have for the Bucks going forward. Paying Dame $22.5mil to not play for you for 4yrs is bad enough, paying GTJ $15mil/yr for 4yrs on top of it to not play for you destroys the Bucks flexibility completely for 4yrs on top of wasting a roster spot

[Frank Madden @fmaddenNBA]

Trent is a min guy after an ugly 25/26, and there’s no need for him on a rebuilding Bucks roster full of guards. My worry: are some of these reports suggesting there’s a market for him just air cover for a wink-wink Bucks made w/Klutch last summer (e.g. Bobby in ‘21)? Hope not…

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

The same mf who was telling us Herro, Ware, Jacquez and 3 FRPs is way too much for Giannis is now crying a team won't give up a similar package for JB lmao? Yeah I gotta hear these tears

[will @will_nba_hater]

If you are a Celtics hater and not a regular Bill Simmons listener, I highly recommend the most recent episode

It’s an electric cope session and just him complaining that the Celtics can’t rob a team in a Jaylen trade

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

@dlee4three Giannis doesn't improve shot quality and his teammates are better than Embiid's or Victor's teammates?!

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

These dudes were carrying the sorriest roster ever to blowout wins over the superteam Celtics and other good teams. Even KPJ, Cormac, Ous, Nance, and Sims are a major upgrade off the bench to what these 2 had. Horst's only job was to get a competent SF who can defend smh

[🇸🇪🇧🇪🇳🇴 @34GOTME]

@yubwrld @gfctone 1 turnover to 18 assists combined omg

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

Shaving points and wasting Giannis years while he already had to deal with scrubs on the roster, this warrants capital punishment. I also bet he took the over on game scores and over on points on whomever he'd be "guarding"

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Nine-year NBA veteran Malik Beasley has been indicted on federal charges for gambling related to a sports betting scheme, such as point shaving and prop bets, his attorney Steve Haney tells ESPN. The government is coordinating a voluntary surrender of Beasley this week.

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

@JejeGomezNBA If the Blazers refused to include Clingan in a hypothetical Giannis trade, who's much better than JB, he would have said POR is being smart and Clingan is untouchable.

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

On to the future but after seeing what Lamelo went for, I kind of wish the Bucks and Giannis could have made up. A Lamelo/Rollins/Yaxel/GA/Myles starting 5 with a real HC would have moved me. KPJ, AJ, MLE guy(s) off the bench. That team could've definitely made a run in the East

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

@Weifhsoem Yeah I get it, I think there should be enough room after this year(hopefully before)when Kuz is gone and then we're left with Jaime, Nate, and Ous at the forward spots. Jaime could also be a sell at the deadline depending on if the Bucks wanna be a cap room team going forward

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

@surelando Word but I am glad he opted in. He may be a knucklehead, to put it mildly but there's always a playoff team that talks itself into needing more scoring/creation off the bench that'll send us a couple SRPs because he's on a cheap deal

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

@PranavSriraman Great point. Now that I think about it wings in the NBA are like WRs in the NFL. Teams are so desperate just to be "solid" at that position and its how we end up with teams thinking of trading 3 FRPs+ for Trey Murphy and paying Peyton Watson nearly $30mil aav in FA

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

@Gintama__Stan Horst has proven to be way behind the times, which makes sense given he seems to show up to work 5 days a year. Still thinks GA needs all shooters around him, thought Kuz was a needle mover, only stat he cares about from his bench players is PPG, kept extending Khris, BP, Brook

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

@PolymarketHoops @iamjessedrama You posted a mock trade where the Bucks were giving away Giannis, Myles Turner, and AJ Green for basically Onyeka Okongwu, 8th pick, and 2 future FRPs but POR HAS to include Clingan for JB 😭? Do you only do fairness when its big market teams involved?

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

@DC_Bucks_Fan Class is bad and 3 of the top 5-6 players as of rn are guards and we're good on that for now lol. It'll only bite us if we literally land the 1st or 2nd pick and gift the NOP Stokes. Rather try to trade for picks in '28 where we got worst of POR/WAS and '29 which we dont have any

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

@Weifhsoem Most obvious Miami Heat vet min signing and will magically bounce back

[Njigba's_In_Paris @CocRivers]

I could be talked into trading Tyler Herro and Kuzma for Mikal Bridges and KAT ngl

[Gatsby @ZachGatsby]

I could be talked into this 👀☘️
