I like the Blazers deal if the '20 1st is hit, or miss instead of 2 2nds. Blazers are down a few of those already.

Love is not the player he was. Not even close. He's overpaid and will miss a bunch of games every year. If he's part of a championship rotation, fine, but you cannot rely on him anymore.

Maybe I'm just really low on DiVincenzo, but giving up two firsts to unload Turner is way too high of a price to pay. Maybe if Turner had multiple years left, but he'll be an expiring contract.

I think Turner could even be a decent trade chip going into next year as salary filler to take on a big contract with more years.

Isnt just having the Bucks waive G. Hill better for the Bucks in the long run?

They can give Hill the guarantee, and he can agree to stay for less. That's not a bad deal, if his terms are reasonable. Bucks are not paying 19M.

agree with Bmiller, 1 pick is enough to unload Turner.

@Gasupo, One 1st rd pick is to much for give up for Turner. Like Love, he simply isn't worth it.

I believe Milwaukee would pass. Love is no way near a 1st pick. Leave the Cavs. enjoy him. The same with Turner. Overpaid! Not worth the Bucks will be able to keep Giannis, Just by resigning Middleton. Bledsoe is already resigned. Snell, Fraizer, possibly Hill, Divencenco, and also Brogdon will be gone. (Brogdon stated he thinks Milwaukee is to racist of a city (? ) ) No problem, I say, trade him Lakers for B. Ingram.

Thoughts?
