    I hate this because I don't think the Bucks do anything but tinker because this is the core that won them a title. I wanted the Heat to really fall apart so Bam might be on the block because the more guys that go on the block that we would want the better chance we have of getting one of them.

    Dear Dame, please watch the DEFENSE that Miami used to win that game. THAT IS WHAT IT IS ABOUT

    Right, they said he is getting too old…. Apparently not too old to score 56 freaking points against Giannis tho.

    Take it in, guys. You just saw the greatest performance in NBA Playoff history. Jordan has the record at 63 but that was in double overtime. What we just witnessed was incredible. Brook and Giannis were at the top of their games and Jimmy beat them. Props to the fans too. That was fun.

    No one said build around him lol, we’re arguing trade for him and get the last bit of his peak to match with our aging superstar. May be a bad idea, but it’s swinging for the fences and that’s what we’re arguing for.

    Isn’t he getting to old though? Why would we want a player like that to play with Dame?

    Getting Jimmy is moot now. He ain’t getting traded.

    Oh my bad. The JinxSpeed guy told us he was old and washed up back in the bubble…..I was just wondering if anybody else thought that was COMPLETE BULLSHIT?

    He’s accepted his limitations since then. Now he knows he’s old because Dillon Brooks said so. Now LeBron is a much better team player because he understands he is now much older and weaker than he was before. He’s simply taking on that old statesman type position and being a great locker room presence.
