“I don’t like being Hollywood,” Giannis recently said about being offered a role in Space Jam 2, a part he denied, while not-so-subtly referring to his aversion to playing in LA. I’m biased as a Bucks fan, but I don’t see him leaving Milwaukee. Mainly because he’s incredibly loyal to the city and loves it here, and we’ve been winning recently, and could win big this year. Second, I don’t see him selling out to a big American team like the Lakers or Knicks, perhaps the only two places that could lure him away. He doesn’t have the innate desire to play for a team like that, not like kids growing up on the streets here have. He’s not KD or Lebron dreaming of joining the pantheon of one of those teams because those teams don’t matter as much to him. Iverson was his favorite player as a kid, so maybe he’ll go to the 76ers, but I don’t think he’ll leave MKE.

The Thunder need to either fix Russell Westbrook, or move on. Whenever he gets to the playoffs, he turns into the most inefficient player in the league. How many bad jump shots can you miss without getting the hint?

It's okay, James Harden will soon take his place if we get to round 2.
