    So MIL has Monroe, Plumlee, Teletovic, Henson, Jabari, and Thon Maker.

    Trade has to be coming, right?

    When you see guys like Miles Plumlee getting 13M a year, it REALLY softens the blow of Crabbes contract. BIG TIME!

    So we can't even be the best in the league at hoarding front-line guys?

    Parker>Aminu
    Teletovic>Leonard
    Henson=Davis
    Plumlee<Plumlee
    Monroe>Vonleh
    Maker<Ezeli

    Only difference is our team has Dame and CJ as our two best players while they have Giannis and Middleton.

    And we have AC and Turner.

    Some might argue that Giannis--if played at PG full time--might be better overall than Dame, and Middleton could well be as good as CJ. Give those two a 3-D guy at SF and you could have something.

    They're also few years behind us in development.

    Yep--it's tough to develop a team when you can't settle on a plan or direction. That organization can never seem to figure out what they're trying to do.

    I wish we could nab Jabari from them.

    Tunchi is the only one that'd make that argument.

    They won't miss him, he sucks. It just sucks for him because teams probably did not go after him thinking OKC would match. And now the money has dried up

    There is absolutely no chance Giannis is a better point guard than Lillard, zero.
