    Okay mister "I'd be okay with a loss to the Lakers because I'm realistic about things".

    A Ferrari and a lifted Hummer H1 can be compared quite easily. Some people like them but both are of little use to most of us.

    Khris Middleton is a guy I would keep an eye on to possibly be moved in the offseason. The Bucks are now on the outside looking in for the playoffs and there have been reports of major changes possibly coming this summer. I’m not sure he is that happy there either.

    He is under contract for next year and then has a player option for 2020. They may want to move him before he leaves on his own. He could be a ‘missing piece’ type guy for us.

    Wes, broken down, wanted to go somewhere and be "The man", both hilarious and sad.

    Prior to his injury, he was the perfect 3rd banana.

    Even without the injury he was never going to be The Man in DAL.

    I so badly want the Spurs to miss the playoffs. It would just be the sweetest icing on the cake. He will represent the downfall of an empire to Spurs fans. I love it.

    I don't know if it would be a good thing. Not because of the EXTREME SATISFACTION it would give me. But I would immediately begin trolling every Spurs board and get kicked off a number of forums within a matter of minutes. So maybe I will need to cut off computer and phone access for a couple of days if the Spurs don't make it.

    You quote "The man" like that's what he said. But is that what he actually said? Link?

    Middleton sounds nice, but I always wonder why people believe MIL will want to let him go. Thoughts?

    I don't have a link, it was a long time ago. But, yes, he said he wanted to be "The Man."

    I look at Milwaukee and Middleton similarly to Portland and CJ. Imagine if we underperformed again this year, missed the playoffs, fired Stotts, and CJ had one guaranteed year left on his deal. I think the fan base and front office would probably want to move him for a multitude of reasons.

    The real question is what do we have that would interest Milwaukee? Luckily his contract drops that asking price a bit and at least makes it discussion worthy.
