The Bucks might be in trouble. They traded defense for offense AND have a rookie coach. 

Yep.  Bud (or bud like) systems make average hustle players look like all stars at times.  And 5 of their top 9 guys are 31+ years old.

Got an outsider take based off today's AJC headlines.  Didn't even read the article. 

This says to me Capela is not on the trade block, or that they are taking him off the block.  He was in trade rumors and the paper writes a fluff piece on him, it means they want to reassure the fans that he is here to stay.  They are saying think of him as a treasured and important part of this roster.  Do not think of him as an expendable asset we're trying to shop.

OG shld be a TPE target.   He ain't better than this version of Hunter.

YEa but would he also be better in this system as most of our guys have improved.

Ok ... you got me.  I'm just takin' shots.  I don't see him as a real TPE target.

I'm sticking with Brogdon and Bogdanovic, if I'm being honest.  Pretty much everything else in this thread is me takin' shots.

I'm not proud of it.

No he is. OG is clutch. He’s a grinder. He’s better than Hunter.

That's $49 million in incoming salary....LAL will have to send out at least Russell, Rui, Reaves and Vanderbuilt (or some combination of players).

Ah, the NBA'll bend the cap rules.  It's the Lakers, after all.

I think Herb Jones should be in the 'Not likely category' Orlando is playing well with Bitadze and Isaac off the bench so not sure they are available.

What would you be willing to give up in each scenario?
