Even this summer, you could trade a potentially healthy going into next season Dame for something, right?

You could clear the salary or you get some actual players.

But the fact that they have his cap hold based off of whatever percentage it is that stretched out over the five years...

Plus Miles Turner, who's like, fine.

This is just going to keep getting worse going into the summer.

Like, I just don't know how they salvage this.

But I will say my one nice thing on the docket here was that one of their owners came out and was like, we're either going to extend Giannis or trade him.

which was at the very least something more firm than I have seen from this organization in over a year at this point.

Now, he can't be extended until October 1st, which means that they have to go through a whole offseason before they get pen to paper.

But at the very least, he's he's extended with them in the past.

And so like they can believe him if he is going to extend and he will.

We're at the very least going to get something happening here so we could finally move on with our lives.

Giannis, I would assume will be traded.

But if not, just go ahead and make the best of it and just shut the fuck up because I'm just like kind of tired with this entire thing.

Well, put on my conspiracy theory hat as I take off my UConn championship hat.

Yeah.

Have to wonder how much that was intentional in order to perhaps like make it uncomfortable for him in order to ask out this offseason because they have been on this like weird staring contest for a couple of months here.

It's like someone has to be the bad guy.

They would be better off rebooting rather than trying to trade the 2032 draft pick over this summer for the equivalent of Kyle Kuzma.

That didn't seem unintentional.
