Your '27 Milwaukee Bucks (as it stands), "we got talls and we got smalls!"

This is smart. There's "welcoming" and "with arms wide open," and he knows what this is.

Regret to inform the Bulls are, in fact, back

When you get all the Heat kids then lose to the Heat summer league team. I'd give all 4 players back for their development staff

The Bucks are going to have to play a bunch of these 3.5's. Their 2 C's aren't imposing. They still need to get a functional ass kicker. It doesn't have to be a forever add. But this is a preview of the nasty-lacking the roster, at full strength, we're in for. And those challenges.

Ryan Rollins. Please know you are so so so important. And we need you. No pressure. But, like, tons of pressure. Thanks.

Pete Nance. Glad they signed that guy.

I didn't realize Edwards was 26 already, either. This thing they've started doing with much older prospects would've been fun in 2022+!

They waived Nance before they had to guarantee his money but then he kept being the best guy in their summer runs and had to bring him back. Going to be awkward when he keeps being better than Dieng and Nate and Bogi (and obvi Kuz) and you can't keep the old man off the flior

Lotta screens. This won't be *the* Milwaukee Bucks offense, but it is conceptually close. I'd wager very big money on. Jenkins moving back off the offense pushed on him in the final Mem season

Ever streamed summer league basketball from your phone in the middle of a summer afternoon like some kind of friendless degenerate? Oh, you're doing it right now, too? Welcome to the degenerates club 🤝

I think Kasparus is going to steal the show today. That hype will kick into overdrive tomorrow. I'm on the record that he needs to become the most efficient player in the game and get stronger to escape dependable backup pg tier. But this environment/experience was made for him to shine. Will be fun

Yves Missi is the all-time leader, for me, for guys who looked like giants on college courts and kinda small on NBA courts

Tell us how you really feel, Tom.

Oh Simmons is going to do the thing to Philly, huh? Haha. Welcome. I was here a week ago, but it's good to add your spite to the discourse

Cody Williams might've missed his window by 3 years. Nobody needed the enticement of NIL more

Lotta pressure on Caleb Wilson tomorrow. Is this thing really going 4/4???

Because the Trae thing was so confusing and the tanking so egregious it went under the radar how loaded the Wizards are. I've spammed you enough with this take. I know. The casuals are in for a shock this winter, tho

Adorable they give these guys a night before it's Brayden Burries' league

Family friend of a friend. It'll touch everyone. It probably already has. Fuck these assholes.

Giannis spin and score, boos his own fans, cam pans to score down 30. Or anything Kyle Kuzma did. Or, any Doc Rivers press conference. Or maybe the team/Giannis dueling investigations against each other. Or Jon Horst playing pickle ball while Milt works the biggest trade in franchise history

His agent didn't send the news. So. He has a new 2-way (Rafael Castro, anyone), or he has a training camp deal. Disappointing if I'm right. Wish there was guaranteed money for him. Maybe his agent is just lost in Circus Circus 🤞

Some things we've (I've) speculated and relayed as true: 1. 2027 stopped being the most important year long ago. 2. We're in for 18 months of weird flipping this over.

Remember how many of the dumbest Bucks accounts would've traded Brook Lopez and their first born for Mo Bamba?

Cool. Ben Golliver in espn's summer league preview. #nevernicethings

BJ Boston: "It's BJ Boston time." (It's good to always have one of those. The joke requires a vessel at all times)

It doesn't really matter who's starting; NBA coaches are going to play their veterans. For a while. Arrange the 9 however you want, that's 9. Who's out to get Burries run? AJ was a starter and still can be in this league. How do you recoup any Caris value? Sims will play, you have 2 Cs. Nate? Bogi?

I need some of the people with faux outrage for Giannis holding up a market a week before there was even a draft and 2 full weeks before anything was even legal to spend some of that exasperation on LeBron, whose "decision" is *way* *less* important. Thanks.

If Kyle Kuzma ends up in this trade, we're keeping the whole neighborhood up

Trae Young being the head of the whole operation is terrifying, but Khris on a better team than Giannis would be fun

Good for Khris Middleton. He's not your minimum salary mercenary yet 💪

I'll wait for a real cap person to do the official numbers but the Pistons are like $40M below the tax now. For Duren trackers

Everyone who thought the Bucks were silly because a team $35M under the tax wasn't trying to save $1M resigning vet mins, I want the acknowledgement that trade wasn't legal had they done that

With no plays and no coach. 🥺😢

Wait, the World Cup is *still* happening? Weird.

This report isn't really new, but it's funnier because of all the Heat stans pretending this guy is some Jrue-cosplay for GA. Yea, they were def pushing to trade their young Jrue, you psychos

When the Warriors won 73 games, 2 teams paid the tax. The Warriors had a $100M payroll. It's not the CBA's fault a player that isn't good enough to get the money he got, got the money he got. That's always been a sports/roster problem. There wouldn't be 25 teams paying 2nd apron prices without it

LeBron is down to 2 teams. Imo. It's the Warriors. Or the Cavs. It's those 2 because he's making a documentary. So you need a story. He knows he isn't winning a title. So no mercenary run. The story is: every single night retirement party back home, or the biggest traveling circus ever.

Look. You have to lock up your star. He's good. But that's $20M more than that star should get. And that's really uncomfortable. Because you can't move on without him. And he's important. But that is going to make ever winning with him extra difficult. That's not a 2nd apron problem.

Kam and Burries have roster spots. Could we maybe put them on the floor to try to win this game. Since we're here

I know this is fake, because it doesn't include the "oh shit oh shit oh shit" dialogue he had with himself when he realized he was "there"

Lotta good money to be made in Europe, and BJ Boston is going to make it. No need to put yourself through the winter tour of midsize American g league cities

(take the win when it's there. and before we see aj) He never once moved from my top guy.

I love Darius Acuff, man. I do not care about his defense. (I'm a couple mins behind, if he just did something dumb, please ignore)

I'm shocked they gave up cash to get into the 2nd for this guy. He's not young, not skilled, and looks like the guy who was pretty bad in the NBL. We'll never see this man again after mid-July

Well, at least we still have the 2026 FIFA Peace Prize.

The next World Cup will all be morning games in the US, so that's cool.

Things capitalism is good for: Billionaires Things capitalism sucks at: Health care Schools Everything Youth sports and not embarrassing yourselves in international competition

It's a shame Russell Westbrook thought launching jumpers off the top of the backboard was a better career path for him than becoming the most prolific goal scorer in US history, but

Now it's time to kill this rich kid country club bullshit and build a team/program that doesn't fold like an empty sheet
