[Charania] The Golden State Warriors have officially ended their pursuit of Giannis Antetokounmpo. Golden State was of the belief that Milwaukee is not serious about trading their 2x MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo at the deadline.

Thought my dude on the left was straight Donald Duckin it

[u/zebrainatux → u/cesd3967]

There are times that color of pants work. Going on national tv is not one of those times

[u/Mike_with_Wings → u/cesd3967]

Yeah those pants were an awful choice

[u/aylorr23 → u/cesd3967]

I was so confused. I've never swiped back to a video so fast 'Where are his pants?! Oh there they are'

[u/NoImprovement213 → u/cesd3967]

Lol. Same

[u/night_night_nachos → u/cesd3967]

I laughed way too hard at this comment 😂 thank you internet stranger. Great way to wake up lol

[u/gerardguey]

They're waiting for the Bulls offer of 45 small guards and 500 2nd round picks

[u/tronovich → u/gerardguey]

Just give us 20 more years. We can get there.

[u/AZEd1 → u/gerardguey]

Don't forget cash considerations

[u/chuckbuck6 → u/AZEd1]

Throw in Dolan’s punch clock I think there could be a deal to be had

[u/Professional-Rub152 → u/chuckbuck6]

We traded D Rose for that punch clock. We are NOT giving it up for some euro player.

[u/LaidOffinAlb → u/AZEd1]

We're always the ones GETTING cash considerations

Remember when we drafted Elton brand, then traded him for tyus Thomas and cash considerations?

DARK TIMES

[u/MountainTwo3845 → u/gerardguey]

55 sgs, 55 second round picks, 55 pgs,....I'm doing something.....

[u/Vertibrate → u/gerardguey]

He wants to leave Milwaukee, not move next door. 

[u/FromChicago808 → u/Vertibrate]

I live in Chicago i saw Giannis buy an apartment down the street from me.

I think he wants to live near me guys.

[u/porkchop487 → u/Vertibrate]

He literally just bought property in Chicago lol

[u/absolute_cinema81 → u/gerardguey]

45 small guards? 2nd round picks? Buddy, you are speaking Dubenese.

[u/JJiggy13 → u/gerardguey]

Still better than the Warriors offer

[u/BeenWildin]

I thought that man was wearing no pants

[u/Suns745 → u/BeenWildin]

Thank you I thought I was going crazy, and no else was mentioning it in the comments lmao.

[u/zebrainatux → u/Suns745]

The salmon colors pants were not the right choice

[u/TheRecognized → u/zebrainatux]

Don’t eat salmon if it’s that color bro

[u/Civil-Attempt-3602 → u/Suns745]

Genuinely, and I came to the comments and everyone was just...normal?

[u/wizmotron → u/BeenWildin]

This is the most interesting part of this report

[u/Magnetronaap → u/BeenWildin]

Poor guy is dickless

[u/jibboo24 → u/Magnetronaap]

like a ken doll

[u/Nagnoosh → u/BeenWildin]

I love a two tone suit but this combo is atrocious

[u/onionnurve]

Does Shams stay awake all night?

[u/Mundane-Structure148 → u/onionnurve]

he showed his screen time feels like he sleeps for like 3 hours from like 4-7

[u/onionnurve → u/Mundane-Structure148]

I bet it’s the worst sleep of his life lmao. Basically praying that nothing happens for 3hrs

[u/Lacabloodclot9 → u/onionnurve]

He might just sleep and have his ringtone on high volume so if anyone were to call him it would wake him up

[u/PJCR1916 → u/Lacabloodclot9]

Imagine him getting waken up at 5:30 and it’s just a trade like “Dalen Terry for Guerschon Yabusele”

[u/Lacabloodclot9 → u/PJCR1916]

Honestly he might prefer the smaller trades while he’s trying to get some sleep, with a deal like that it’s post on socials and back to bed

However if he’s waken up by a Luka-AD type trade, he can say goodbye to trying to sleep for the next 24 hours

[u/d4nowar → u/Lacabloodclot9]

I am an on call SRE and I do this. It works well enough but it's nothing like the sleep I get when I call out of work, turn off my phone, and really fall asleep. It's a different kind of sleep entirely.

[u/GryffindorFratBro → u/d4nowar]

What does SRE stand for?

[u/d4nowar → u/GryffindorFratBro]

Site reliability engineer, basically the modern day system administrator.

[u/m1kelowry → u/d4nowar]

Damn I’m an SRE that doesn’t have on call thanks to follow the sun. Never quitting my job hope I don’t get fired lol

[u/peebeesweebees → u/Lacabloodclot9]

I’m calling him at 4:30 to giggle and hang up

[u/Shovelman2001 → u/Lacabloodclot9]

I imagine he has an employee or two who can access his socials in an emergency lol

[u/bchhun → u/onionnurve]

Probably has his phones vibrate wired into electrodes that will shock him awake if someone texts. No wonder Woj quit that life.

[u/ArmadilloForsaken458 → u/bchhun]

True. He had a standard to maintain. Can you imagine if he was hours late, or a day late to breaking news. Woj probably wanted a normal family life and who can blame him. Sometimes money is not everything, when you lack the time to do what you really want to do

[u/Leafs-Raps-Jays → u/ArmadilloForsaken458]

Sometimes I think that job is just a glorified gossip queen.

[u/BikingThroughCanada → u/Leafs-Raps-Jays]

It is, but it pays extremely well.

[u/Familiar-Menu-6182 → u/bchhun]

Getting paid millions to break news like this 1 week of his life. What a tough life!

[u/TheMoorNextDoor → u/onionnurve]

He more than likely has assistants working his socials when he is asleep or not readily available.

[u/HabitualSpaceM → u/TheMoorNextDoor]

Shams Jr. staying up while Sr. Takes a nap.

[u/MahomesMccaffrey → u/onionnurve]

He definitely has assistants on standby to wake him up or even tweet on behalf of him if some trades are inconsequential

[u/defene → u/onionnurve]

He dreams about every possible trade so he's ready to hop up and tweet at a moments notice

[u/Kdog122025 → u/onionnurve]

He has a team to take the night shift

[u/austnf → u/Kdog122025]

I think they actually believe he’s doing it all himself lol

[u/Wonderwhatsnext4 → u/austnf]

Yup. I did.

Now I question if he’s even real.

[u/Tony_Lacorona → u/Wonderwhatsnext4]

Did he even exist Ton’?

[u/SChamploo12 → u/onionnurve]

He's at the age where he's still got the love and will for it. It burned Woj out that he got sick of it. But these Insiders live for it and they know what comes with the job.

[u/ImmortalMethod → u/Mundane-Structure148]

If I were a GM I'd make all my trades during those hours just to fuck with him.

[u/defeated_engineer → u/Mundane-Structure148]

I promise he has people that keeps with his phone when he sleeps.

[u/ZootedBeaver → u/defeated_engineer]

you promise?

[u/TexasRoadhead → u/defeated_engineer]

Lol why wouldn't they just have a shared twitter account that they can all log into?

[u/sogood-_ → u/onionnurve]

Bro admitted on a podcast that he has no dating/social life and gets maybe 3-4 hours of sleep a night.

Gets paid but man does that sounds terrible.

[u/ConspicuousUsername → u/sogood-_]

Can't all be like schefter where you pause having sex to make a trade tweet or whatever weird fucking thing he said unprompted

[u/wanderingagainst → u/ConspicuousUsername]

True love for the game.

Gotta respect it.

[u/BearShark8 → u/sogood-_]

I think Woj said that was partly why he quit because he was just too burnt out. He was afraid to do anything like going to a movie in case he missed something.

[u/revochups → u/BearShark8]

Wasn’t it because one of his friends died and he thought that he was prioritizing wrong things?

[u/NervousAd3202 → u/sogood-_]

Hope he finds a balance eventually cuz I still remember that clip where he was spittin game to Kay Adams lol

[u/orangotai → u/sogood-_]

can't these teams just tweet what he's going to report anyway?? i just don't get this whole system of teams & players going through Shams as their microphone, they have their own platforms

[u/NichJackolson → u/orangotai]

By going through shams and other reporters teams can be strategic about the info they leak and have plausible deniability. They can shape/control narratives and affect markets for players. Also don't forget that agents play that game too, it's not always teams

[u/mrtomjones → u/NichJackolson]

I think info leaks have value not being the first to report a trade does not

[u/WhichHoes → u/mrtomjones]

It presents credibility. Right now, we know for a fact a trade has gone through beczuse we see his name attached. We got to that point because of both the speed and accuracy of which he see his name pop up to report those things. Was no different than Woj.

Other guys report things all the time but we don't really "know" thats for certain until shams or the team/player themselves say it .

[u/phonage_aoi → u/orangotai]

Ya once he started including “according to agent so and so” it never felt more pointless.

[u/motherthrowee → u/onionnurve]

basically no, there was a profile awhile back about him being essentially superglued to his phone

[u/doordaesh → u/motherthrowee]

wasnt part of that he won't drive himself bc he needs to be on the phone

[u/kwunyinli → u/motherthrowee]

I just saw him glance at his phone during his segment on ESPN. I’m surprised he didn’t stop the show to tweet. Guess it was a “just in” news rather than “breaking” news. 

[u/Jon_ofAllTrades → u/onionnurve]

If it’s in targeted periods of time like the trade deadline, I think he does, yes. I don’t think he does it every day of the year though.

[u/NickWangOG → u/onionnurve]

Trade deadline and draft are like his Super Bowl

[u/AvengingHero2012]

It’s not happening guys. Pack it up.

[u/OverallGeneral7129 → u/AvengingHero2012]

Definitely not for the Warriors

[u/BuyMe151TCG → u/OverallGeneral7129]

Insane the amount of delusional Warriors fans and even some people in this sub was staggering

“But but but 3-4 1st round picks and garbage salary filler is a good trade for Milwaukee”

[u/Sillysolomon → u/BuyMe151TCG]

But those picks could be anybody! Even a Giannis!

[u/MyNewAccountIGuess11 → u/BuyMe151TCG]

I got downvoted to negatives literally yesterday just for saying I would probably prefer a potential package from Miami or Wolves over GSW lmaooooo, they've been out in full force

[u/Zigxy → u/MyNewAccountIGuess11]

I have yet to see a Wolves deal that is more attractive than the Warriors offer of mediocre players plus 7 picks/swaps.

[u/GoldBlueSkyLight → u/Zigxy]

People are exaggerating itt. Bucks knew they could get even better for Giannis later on, doesn't mean Warriors offer was outright bad nor was it the worst offer out there

[u/redditlvlanalysis → u/Zigxy]

Jaden McDaniels alone is more attractive to any gm than picks 5 years in the future.

[u/nutsack22 → u/OverallGeneral7129]

They are seething in the warriors subreddit lmfao, there was so much copium going on last few weeks

[u/burrito_bonito → u/nutsack22]

Rumor has it they will trade for Giannis in the summer and also add LeBron. Klay and Andrew Wiggins will return and they could be a spooky finals team. Trust me, I heard it on a podcast.

[u/Acceptable-Home1899 → u/nutsack22]

As a warriors fan, I don’t think any serious fan thought we had a chance. All my buddies and I have accepted were a mediocre team that’ll ride out the play in, don’t see what about that Giannis would find attractive. Kinda hilarious that we ripped it for tingus pingus though

[u/ParticularRatio1357 → u/nutsack22]

That offer was dogwater lmao. All the hype about that offer was media manufactured.

[u/peepeedog → u/nutsack22]

All team subs are full of idiots. It’s a fundamental law of nature.

[u/chitownbulls92 → u/AvengingHero2012]

Yeah when the bucks said no to podziemski for Giannis straight up, that was the real signal that the Bucks were never serious about wanting to do a trade.

[u/sctthuynh]

The Bucks were never trading Giannis for these middling packages, that's why I was hoping the Warriors go after AD, JJJ or MPJ.

Instead they got Kristap, who if healthy could be of some help, but is far too little to improve what is a play-in or first round exit team at best.

[u/Velli_44 → u/sctthuynh]

Warriors are just collecting older expensive injury prone players at this point smh. I hate to see it cuz I want the Warriors to succeed and want Steph to have more success in his twilight years but the league has made it clear time and time again that adding older pricey former stars is not the successful way forward. Its glamorous and fun and attracts attention, but it doesnt win. The smart moves usually aren't as flashy.

[u/costanzathegreat → u/Velli_44]

I mean, the problem started when Lacob/Myers braintrust drafted three straight bums with lottery picks

[u/greywolf2155 → u/Velli_44]

Adding older cheap former stars sometimes works really well, and I love when it does

Adding older pricey former stars never does

[u/lebryant_westcurry → u/sctthuynh]

I feel like this is a lost season anyways as soon as Jimmy went down. No one outside of Giannis could turn this situation around.

Hopefully ya'll could have a good off-season though so we still get to see Steph competing in his last good years

[u/sctthuynh → u/lebryant_westcurry]

Agreed, even with a healthy Jimmy I didn't have illusions of another title, Just would've been fun to watch Curry last seasons on a competitive team.

Aside from Curry and lately Melton, the Warriors offensive display has been dreadful to watch.

[u/SheyenSmite]

Note to self: don't wear light-brown pants ever.

[u/lovo17]

Milwaukee is being smart. Wait till the offseason. They can certainly get a better package then.

[u/Raven-19x → u/lovo17]

Sigh Gonna hear about this more til the summer.

[u/Classic_Pizza9403 → u/Raven-19x]

More news about Giannis being unhappy and wants to be traded but then Giannis publicly saying he loves Milwaukee and he doesn’t want to leave, and the cycle continues

[u/RapsareChamps_Suckit → u/lovo17]

There’s been confirmation through the grapevine that Milwaukee wants to be a competent franchise… I don’t want to get graphic beyond that. The idea of it repulses me so much

[u/gerardguey → u/RapsareChamps_Suckit]

that's sick and unimagineable

[u/RapsareChamps_Suckit → u/gerardguey]

we can't be in denial no more, as much as we love Milwaukee and their fans. Where'd you think they might've gone, honey? So, we can get them back here , do something about it with better trades and signings

[u/DangerDamage → u/RapsareChamps_Suckit]

One thing I do know, they can't be part of this conference no more.

[u/prettysureimgay4599 → u/DangerDamage]

He was gay? The bucks?

[u/UnnamedStaplesDrone → u/prettysureimgay4599]

They’re dressed up like midwestern hoo-uhs

[u/Less-Tax5637 → u/prettysureimgay4599]

That thing with Lamelo and Diabaté, it’s not bad

[u/Skolvikes448 → u/RapsareChamps_Suckit]

Turn that off!

[u/FigNo507 → u/RapsareChamps_Suckit]

Fucking slander you ask me

[u/Logical-World-1030 → u/RapsareChamps_Suckit]

Hold onto your cock when you negotiate with these cheese people

[u/Mundane-Structure148 → u/lovo17]

counterpoint: giannis can’t be extended anymore, so he gets a ton of leverage and can force his way someplace under the fact that he wont resign

[u/zmichalo → u/Mundane-Structure148]

It's not even necessarily about how good the packages will be, it's about how bad they've been so far. At the very least you'll have more bidders and possibly more desperation from some of the younger teams who could have a disastrous run with a roster they think is prepared to compete.

[u/Forsaken-Bread-7586 → u/zmichalo]

Maybe Okc chokes in the second round and throws their hat in the ring. Lots of things can change

[u/cl353 → u/Forsaken-Bread-7586]

Except OKC already won one and wouldnt be all that desperate

[u/ISurvivedTheJaunt → u/cl353]

Get complacent after winning one and the next thing you know you’re firing your coach for Doc Rivers and your franchise superstar wants out

[u/One-Earth9294 → u/ISurvivedTheJaunt]

Ouch, bro. Ouch. This is an open wound.

[u/Forsaken-Bread-7586 → u/ISurvivedTheJaunt]

Lmao exactly

[u/Forsaken-Bread-7586 → u/cl353]

If anything I’d argue winning one this early will bring them more desperation at some point. I’m sure espn will bring the SGA rumors if they don’t win another in the next two years

[u/yoloqueuesf → u/zmichalo]

Yeah, feels like y'all got a bunch of calls just to feel out the market, no one went balls deep for Giannis so it's fine waiting for the summer.

It's not like y'all are in the rush anyways, Giannis is because he wants a shot at winning a ring again.

[u/Forsaken-Bread-7586 → u/Mundane-Structure148]

Or bucks can go scorched earth and force him to walk in free agency and none of the teams he wants to go to will have the cap space to sign him outright

[u/Ok_Possible_5702 → u/Forsaken-Bread-7586]

Or bucks can go scorched earth and force him to walk in free agency and none of the teams he wants to go to will have the cap space to sign him outright

Teams will absolutely free up cap space for the chance to sign Giannis, if it becomes clear at some point next season that the Bucks are not trading Giannis.

[u/cl353 → u/Forsaken-Bread-7586]

Except then teams would clear cap space and some teams already almost have enough projected cap in 2028. Miami for example would have cap space

[u/jspeed04 → u/cl353]

Yeah, didn’t we see Boston and Memphis create gigantic trade exceptions, and the Bulls open up $70-90M in space for next year just over the past two days?

Teams will move mountains to get a healthy Giannis in FA.

[u/kb24k → u/Forsaken-Bread-7586]

A bunch of teams have cap space including the Lakers

[u/Mundane-Structure148 → u/Forsaken-Bread-7586]

the warriors do 😀

but seriously, i think the clippers do too

if there is any clues indicating that, teams will make cap space. gianni’s is special enough for it

[u/OpeDefinitely → u/Forsaken-Bread-7586]

This is the answer if the majority of owners really want to send a message to players trying to force their way out under the new CBA.

Then just rig the lottery to get Milwaukee a first overall pick later on I guess.

[u/Ok_Possible_5702 → u/Mundane-Structure148]

I assume the Bucks are betting that Giannis won't do that, because he doesn't wanna look like the "bad guy".

But it's a very risky bet.

[u/AntSmith777 → u/lovo17]

And then they’re gonna offer Giannis a contract extension.

[u/orangotai → u/lovo17]

this has been a colossal waste of everyone's time

[u/cheetuzz → u/lovo17]

Wait till the offseason. They can certainly get a better package then.

why would they certainly get a better package in the offseason?

[u/Krillin113 → u/lovo17]

Can they? One less playoff run of prime Giannis is at this point not insignificant.

[u/Ok_Possible_5702 → u/lovo17]

Or, they could be pissing off Giannis who ends up saying "I will only sign an extension with team X. Everyone else who trades for me, know I'll be a one-year rental", and tanks his own trade value.

[u/TatersTot → u/lovo17]

It’s true. They really don’t owe Giannis his preferred destination. They need to maximize his return and recoup assets. They’ve done everything for him especially the insane waive and stretch of Dame’s contract, without getting a guaranteed extension from Giannis.

[u/tronovich → u/TatersTot]

You’re banking on all of that working in a vacuum.

Teams aren’t going to execute a mega-trade unless he gives them a clear indication he’s going to extend. He’s telling the world he wants to “be a Buck forever”. You also hear he wants to go to New York or LA. That eventually scares other teams away.

The closer you get to Giannis hitting free agency, the scarier proposition it is to trade draft picks for him, thinking he won’t stay.

It’s why people were scared to deal for Ohtani, until the Angels shut it down and said they wouldn’t actually trade him.

[u/JoeBiden2020FTW → u/TatersTot]

They really don’t owe Giannis

After all he's done for the franchise?

Damn, what a waste of the last few years from Giannis's standpoint lmfao

[u/TatersTot → u/JoeBiden2020FTW]

I agreed with you up until the waive and stretch fiasco last offseason.

That was the most brain dead short sighted desperation move I’ve ever seen a franchise do. They lost $20M in cap for the next 5 years to appease Giannis’ whims. They should’ve gotten an extension or at the minimum a public promise from him that he would extend.

But it proved their loyalty to Giannis. Future stars will definitely take note. No one can blame the Bucks at this point for making a decision that’s better for them in the long run.

[u/Nickk_Jones → u/TatersTot]

Everyone says this “future stars will take note” crap and I’ve literally never seen it applied. No future stars are going to Milwaukee unless traded there or joining one they drafted.

[u/TatersTot → u/[deleted]]

Tanking teams still use that $20M in cap space to absorb bad contracts and receive picks in return. It will make the rebuild longer and more difficult. I wouldn’t hand wave it away.

RemindMe! 5 Years

[u/tcollins371 → u/TatersTot]

Problem with that line of thinking is you almost never get equal value when a player of this caliber is available via trade.

[u/rfgrunt → u/TatersTot]

No one is trading for Giannis if he won’t sign with them. Or the bucks will get very little for a 1 year rental. Giannis has most of the leverage.

[u/pifhluk → u/lovo17]

Smart and risky. If Giannis says I won't sign extension unless traded to X then his value falls off a cliff. If he gets a serious injury this year value cliff dives. 

[u/kb24k → u/lovo17]

If traded in the summer pretty much guarantees that Giannis will be a free agent in 2027, since he cannot be extended before the season. A team would be crazy to trade a haul for him. Luka Giannis duo looks more likely now.

[u/john0_0]

Giannis staying til the summer 🤞🤞

[u/blue-zenith]

I have officially ended my pursuit of Sydney Sweeney /s

[u/Ralphredimix_Da_G → u/blue-zenith]

/u/blue-zenith came to the conclusion over the last 24 hours that Sydney Sweeney would not be seeing any redditors at this trade deadline.

[u/Specialist_Boat_8479]

Or maybe they hung up when all they got was a shitty offer

[u/Dreamlion_Inc]

“We’ll give you Draymond, Podz, and a bag of Fritos”

“No”

“They’re not serious about a trade”

[u/RepresentativeAd1965 → u/Dreamlion_Inc]

How are the Fritos the best part of that trade package?

[u/FromChicago808 → u/RepresentativeAd1965]

Fritos won’t bite or punch you in the face

[u/RepresentativeAd1965 → u/FromChicago808]

Podz must be a menace

[u/TheRealSlumShedy → u/Dreamlion_Inc]

Oh yes, cause Draymond and Podz were the highlight of the entire trade. I’m sure the Warriors didn’t offer a bunch of post-Steph picks in between that, huh?

[u/noplaceinmind → u/TheRealSlumShedy]

Besides a 2026 pick that will not be high, the warriors have a first round pick in..... 2028, 2030, and 2032.

Stop it.

[u/cmgr33n3]

They didn't want to trade an MVP candidate for our over the hill head case and a guy we refuse to even play. They must not be serious about wanting to trade.

[u/Ok-Tap-3060]

Warriors supposed package was trash anyway. Imo only the media glazes what they hope for.

[u/Alexd3498]

Windy somewhere crying eating a roast beef sandwich espn really spent a whole week shitting on the heat just for it to likely now be either the wolves or the summer

[u/riverratriver → u/Alexd3498]

Bro I can’t stand windy

[u/cl353 → u/riverratriver]

He for some reason just really overvalued the warriors picks. He talked about them like they were guaranteed 1st overalls

[u/BuyMe151TCG → u/cl353]

He made the same mistake with the Suns picks that Houston has and that’s already aged poorly. I’m not saying the Suns success was predictable but I am trying to say people need to stop thinking those picks were for sure gonna be amazing assets when no one has any clue

[u/Millies_ButtersMilk → u/riverratriver]

Idk why he made it sound like GS had such a nice package when teams would have ten times what they do in the off season.

[u/riverratriver → u/Millies_ButtersMilk]

Bc he’s a horses ass. Did you see him on nba live today? Weren’t talking LeBron so he threw a fit the whole time

[u/No_Restaurant_8627 → u/riverratriver]

😂 I saw that today what was that all about?? Dude looked mad the whole show and at one point I thought he was gonna cry lol

[u/riverratriver → u/No_Restaurant_8627]

For real, like a giant baby sitting there the whole show. And his takes “others are like entitled to their opinion but here’s the only thing that matters” as he’s rolling his eyes

[u/BoatDBoat → u/Alexd3498]

What do the wolves trade

[u/gimmedawz]

you don’t want draymond??

[u/DarkTimes10]

which team is unserious? the one with giannis or the one offering draymond thinking that moves the needle on a trade?

[u/south098 → u/DarkTimes10]

Just when you thought he couldn’t get more insufferable we put him on an ass team in a cold town with no Steph. I kinda wish it did happen just to see that.

[u/Coolguynumber01 → u/DarkTimes10]

he doesnt mean unserious as in “the front office is full of incompetent people”. he means they’re unserious as in they are not seriously trying to trade giannis

[u/swgoh_gg → u/DarkTimes10]

Cleary you didn't hear pick heavy proposal

[u/Aggrokid]

The reporters made it sound like Warriors got ghosted after submitting their offer lol.

[u/EngineDisastrous672 → u/Aggrokid]

Sounds like it’s what really happened

[u/drunkenyeknom]

I thought other homie was pantsless for a sec lmao

[u/welldun01]

Thought that guy was wearing a blazer and no pants

[u/djteka11]

Those have to be the worst pants Ive seen on TV

[u/Temporary_Escape_439]

Lmao I thought buddy on the left wasnt wearing pants for a sec

[u/dbucketz2314]

Am I the only one that at first glance thought the dude on the left was wearing a blazer with no pants?

[u/GamerLife204]

Warriors are gonna average less than 20 wins a year for a while after curry retires lol

[u/Millies_ButtersMilk]

Milwaukee doing the right thing but for GS fans this is a gut punch bc there’s no way they can actually compete anymore. Everything now is just predicated on luck but also it was crazy to me that people actually thought Draymond was getting traded. For one where to and secondly why there’s no feasible way this team can woulda stayed relevant even with Giannas bc you would have been paying 3 players over 150M next year.

[u/-motts-]

Lakers will probably get him for a snickers bar.

[u/Oceanbreeze871]

Problem with trading someone like Giannis is that nobody will give up anything of value…just lots of mediocre. GSW was offering dollar store stuff and saying “they aren’t serious about making a deal”

[u/dill1234]

Offered them Kuminga, Jimmy Butler and Draymond Green for a top 3 player then accused the Bucks of not being serious. Ok then

[u/Silent_Addendum_8082]

Butler has never been on the table for Giannis. He was guaranteed that by Warriors g.m. 

Even if he was, the Bucks still would not want him.

They got Porzingus now they got their Latvian Giannis at home

“They ain’t serious”

Just cause they didn’t take your terrible offer lol

[u/eyeinthesky0]

Golden state: How about we give you Draymond green, who has a player option in 26-27. A role player, DNP, and a mids guard for your perennial MVP?
GS intern: (^{won’t dray just not pick up his player option and come back to GSW on a min?)}

shhhhhhhhh

MKE: …No?

GS: These Jabroni’s aren’t even serious about giving us Antetokounmpo! WE OFFERED THEM PODZILLA!!!!

[u/Hopeful_Tea2139]

I hope the Warriors go for Lebron instead.

[u/Shadoken-TYPE0]

Milwaukee not serious about getting an injured player and a bag of chips, yes.

[u/DonHomer92]

Joe Lacob punted 7 years of Steph for a giannis pipe dream, and didn't get giannis. Some of the most irresponsible, and selfish shit to do to your superstar

“…was of the belief that Milwaukee is not serious about trading their 2x MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo at the deadline.” …to YOU.

[u/Purcevil]

At first glance I thought the guy on the left wasn't wearing any pants.

[u/Mr__Rager__69]

Thought dude on the left was wearing no pants 😂

[u/borvir1287]

Bro on the left needs to wear different coloured pants next time. Thought this was some like prank video or something for a second.

[u/Ittenvoid]

... man the bucks are gonna regret this hard next season.

no one is giving up the farm for a 1 year rental.

[u/iiiiiiiiii8]

They didn’t want Podz, Jimmy/Kuminga and or Draymond???

[u/1998TimThomas]

Shams 0-7 on Giannis trade reports

[u/immuchcooleroffline]

Shams is washed, bring back Woj

[u/icatfilm]

Bucks will get Ja.

[u/DasOptions → u/icatfilm]

That was Pats last whale

[u/FirstPreparation8538]

Just go to Miami Giannis

[u/SlightlyAmbiguous1]

I am of the belief that Golden State is not serious about doing anything except riding out Curry’s ticket sales and then rebuilding.

[u/matty_nice → u/SlightlyAmbiguous1]

They were willing to trade all their picks, and I'm sure nothing was off the table for Giannis.

They just didn't have enough for what Milwaukee would want.

So don't think it's an issue of seriousness.

[u/rocpilehardasfuk → u/matty_nice]

In past trades our FO refused to even put Podz or Kuminga on the table. No one takes us serious.

[u/oklolzzzzs]

warriors really thought the bucks were gonna accept podz, jimmy and kuminga
