    will the Blazers give out a free angioplasty with their $2 meal?

    Their prices are already cheaper to begin with!

    It barely registers in my mind that he won anything other than a scrimmage...

    I mean, good for him, and good for the Bucks. I'm glad they got a bonus.

    But it means absolutely nothing to me.

    So now the prices are merely extortionate instead of being completely insane.

    I will be happy for CJ if that happens (but a bit worried for the Bucks)

    They're getting so little from Middleton that it might actually work. If you had to design the ideal basketball player to fit with a DameCJ duo it just might be Giannis.

    Somewhere Neil Olshey will be dancing if that deal happens.

    I can certainly see Milwaukee willing to throw their 2031 pick and Middleton contract out there to get whatever the best player is they can to win the title this year.

    You'd think there would be initial targets for someone better than CJ. But still that move is better than standing pat with the injured Middleton.

    I would definitely think that Grant would be a better option than CJ.

    It would be difficult because the BUcks are over the 2nd apron.

    Could do:

    CJ to Bucks
    Zion to Portland
    DA to Pelicans (and each team could swap some 2nd round picks probably).

    My chrome crashed and I rushed to post it. I think it was Middleton, as they A: can't combine players and B: don't have anyone else making that kind of cheddar.

    There is no real realistic way for the Bucks to trade for CJ.
