They won like six in a row. And then it got, you know, it got scrapped. Right. It just got cut. And like, we're not going to, but, Listen, what Milwaukee is, is that John Horst has made 28 trades since he took over as GM. He is one of the most creative GMs out there. eventually like the ATM, the ATM machine is dry, man. It ain't spending that money anymore here.

And you've, you know, you got a 2031 first that you could trade. You got one second and you can't aggregate contracts. You got Portis, Middleton and you know, Portis, Middleton, Connington, Lopez. Those are your kind of your trade pieces here. And it's like, you know, you're, you know, relying on Damon Giannis. And I know some of the younger players have played well for you.

sense and I don't really blame him like how come you guys always keep like hinting at all these different things and then it doesn't really happen and he signs the extension it's great it's funny like you'll appreciate this like I had to go on NBA Today this was a couple weeks ago and show like creative trades and basically how like Milwaukee could aggregate contracts without you know like without with getting under the second apron and we

we threw up like a fictitious Jimmy Butler trade, right? Like Middleton and Portis were going to Miami and Connaughton was going to Detroit. This convoluted thing. And Bucs fans were like, oh my God, this is happening. And I was like, wait a minute, like fictional, right? Like it's not real and stuff like that. And even like if it was real, I don't think Milwaukee would do something like that.

I just don't. Like that's like, that's basically having like one swing left and you're basically going to use it on Jimmy Butler.

I think, I think the smart thing, and I don't, I believe this has not happened. Um, just because I dealt with this with Carmelo back in the way back in 2010, Denver allowed permission for teams to talk to Butler and his reps. I mean, Anthony is rep.

So I think if I was Miami and you get to a point and there are teams that are, you know, that they're interested and there could be a framework of something, I think that's something that the Heat should do. They probably won't as far as say like, hey, Memphis, we're going to give you 24 hours.

You can meet with Jimmy Butler and his agent, Bernie Lee, and figure out like if this makes sense and go from there. But I think if I'm in a front office, I think my big question is what's the number next year? Like, what are we looking for? You've got a $52 million player option. We're not going up from that number, right?
