Wow-- in the current NBA payroll environment, this is a great deal for Milwaukee.

He seems to fit well there and he's in his prime. Good deal for all parties tbh

70 mill (30 after taxes and agent cut) would go far in Milwaukee

The real question- how legit are the Bucks? Nobody on that team is really battle tested. They have a bunch of talent and look amazing but the East is loaded this year. I can see them losing against the 76ers, Raptors, and Celtics in the playoffs. However Bud is an amazing coach and the players all seem laser focused so maybe they can win the east.

And if they do win the east this year, they could own the conference for the foreseeable future (unless the Knicks super team really does happen with Kyrie, KD, and AD). Kawhi is leaving and that weakens Toronto. Philly can't afford to keep their team together. And Boston will make the wrong move to try to get AD and Kyrie will go in an asylum. I mean the dude is miserable now and whining, pouting, and moody and he doesn't even have real expectations placed on him. Nobody is picking the celtics to win the chip and he is a acting like a melodramatic diva. Imagine if he gets AD, then he will have real pressure placed on him and fold once they both inevitably get hurt.
