The Bucks are in a weird spot where they can't even fully tank if they trade Giannis

The Bucks don't own any of their own picks for the foreseeable future. So they're in a weird situation where they can't really tank... if they trade Giannis for picks, you're now, you have to hope that the other teams stink... the bucks are kind of stuck in a spot where it doesn't help for them to just be bad.

The Bucks' draft pick situation is a matter of public record, and the difficulty of tanking without picks is a widely accepted NBA strategy reality.

It is a foregone conclusion that Giannis Antetokounmpo will never wear a Bucks jersey again

The Bucks maybe if you're a Bucks fan, this is the last time you see Giannis in a Bucks jersey, which sucks... I feel like it's a foregone conclusion [he is gone].

Giannis remains a Buck as of the current date, but the take predicts he has played his last game for them.

Giannis Antetokounmpo joining the Thunder would ruin the NBA

I heard people talking about Giannis to the Thunder that would, that might ruin the NBA. Well, if Giannis goes to the Thunder next year, they would have to trade players.

The trade did not happen, and the NBA remained competitive, making the 'ruining' of the league a moot point.

Florida can win the national championship because they can shoot threes now

Florida though, I've been talking about Florida for three weeks. They could shoot threes now. They absolutely kicked [Arkansas's]... They just throttle teams. All four of [Duke, Michigan, Arizona, Florida] would be the best team in the previous five years.

Whether Florida wins the title or performs as an elite team will be decided by the end of March Madness.

Miami of Ohio will make the tournament even if they lose in the conference tournament

I'm saying right now, winning every... If they go undefeated in the conference, that is so hard to do. I think if they go undefeated in the conference and then lose in the conference tournament, I think they will be in.

This will be resolved on Selection Sunday, March 15th, 2026.
