When they have more picks after the season, it is being said that the Bucs want picks.

They don't want the Heat's young players.

The Heat have a cupboard of young players that are more desirable than the Warriors' cupboard of young players.

But if you want picks, you want picks.

And now it becomes a conversation about how interested are the Bucs in actually pleasing Giannis Antetokounmpo?

Because I do believe that this would be a better place for Giannis Antetokounmpo

than Golden State if he's thinking about the next five or six years instead of the next two.

I also think we underestimate the ego of these people if you think it doesn't matter at all that Giannis doesn't want to be seen as going over.

I think he's given voice to this.

I think he was one of the guys complaining when Durant did this, no man, I'm not doing it that way where I go and Steph Curry's team is I'm the number two and I don't get to be the reason we're winning.

I'm just going to help Steph Curry cement his legacy when I don't think that Giannis thinks that Steph Curry is appreciably better at basketball than he is.

When I say, this might be blasphemy, what I'm about to say now, but I kind of limped up with respect and bias to saying that Giannis was the third best player the Heat would ever have.

And I walked past Shaq when I did it.

But I'm not sure that Dwyane Wade is actually better than Giannis.

Like, I'd have to go look at some of these numbers and see what it is that I'm looking at and do some analysis on it.

But I'm not positive as I say it.

I did it respectfully, but I'm not positive.

Just put it on the poll.

Who's a better player?

Dwayne Wade or Giannis Antetokounmpo?
