Yeah its time to trade Giannis because if we wait until the contract ends we will get nothing.

Name 5 players better than Giannis? OK
Jokic
Luka
Steph
Kawhi ( when healthy obvioously far better )
Brunson
Cunningham
SGA ( yeah, I know what they let him do, but they let Giannis take up to 11 steps and plow through people )
Wemby
Murray
Edwards
KD
Jalen Brown
There’s probably at least 5 more ( I’d take Markannen, Flagg and Reeves over him at this point )

Did Giannis endorse the sacking of Adrian Griffin?

All this trade talk. How about free Embiid. He’s cooking lately. Think his injuries are a thing of the past. Next year MVP. Him and Wemby since they are better off playing 24-28 mins would be lethal

Hawks need to move that NOP pick to milwaukee for giannis, imagine a defensive lineup with giannis, jalen johnson, dyson daniels and company

1) fire doc
2) trade Giannis for best deal- make it a bidding war- go for other stars in their prime and frp’s not protected ( projected to be in the top 10 picks)
3( After giannis trade)- trade who ever you can for better players and protected frp and srp.
