Win win for the Bucks ,,,Giannis gave them the or else and ownership listened...now Middleton can come off bench or be 3rd option ...Bucks favorites in East and for Heat fans sorry

Bucks became the clear favorites to win the 2023 NBA title with the trade for Lillard.

Dame Lillard = not the greatest Blazer of all time

It could have been him

That would be Clyde "the Glide" Drexler...

 

[n_huffhines]

Justin Verrier (no idea how to spell his name) pointed out the biggest losers in this trade are the Pelicans, who went from thinking Bucks might blow it up to both picks they're getting landing in the upper 20s

Probably, but Bill Walton did carry the 'Blazers to their only NBA Championship.

Injured a lot of time there but yes he did win Championship for them him and Maurice Lucas as the enforcer...

Bill Simmons ranted and raved about Walton being the best and I know he’s got the title but he played like 250 games for them. Has to be Clyde

 

[knoxvol52]

Some people will remember Carmelo Anthony as. Knicks...but his best years was as a Denver Nugget...

Yes, I agree. Just saying Walton probably had the best single season in Portland history when you add in the Ring

Oh no doubt. That two year run was magical. Those late 80’s/early 90’s Blazers get overlooked

Yes, that's the Pistons fault and Jordan's

 

[zjcvols]

Lakers got em a couple years too

Bill Walton is the best Blazer ever. Clyde Drexler is the greatest because of resume.

Not saying much ; )

 

[95 Vol Alum]

Greg Bowie and Sam Oden are the greatest.

 

[n_huffhines]

Simmons has Nurkic ranked as the 29th best center asset

Dame Lillard's defensive rating last year was 245th...among guards!

Dame has never done the things that lead to winning basketball like playing defense or making teammates better. Even Harden makes his teammates better. Look at Robert Covington with Harden and with Dame...

Look at Norman Powell with Lowry and no point guard with LAC vs time with Dame..

Lillard and Carmelo are the most overrated “stars” of the last 15 years. Me first offensive players you win 45 games and do nothing in the playoffs with

Nah man if Poole actually said this is, this is hilarious

I do think Dame can make Giannis better. This will be the most spacing he's ever seen. And the pnr combo should be so scary

Throw in Boogie Cousins and maybe Donovan Mitchell

As clever as the line is, you're not allowed to talk like this to players who are way better than you. It comes off clownish
