Um, yeah, Zach's a tricky one. It's like, man, one day he wants to be in Chicago. One day you can't wait to get out of Chicago. Um, I'm in that camp, you know, just, I don't weigh in opinion wise that much. Cause I'm just following the information, but like, man, Zach, he's had an incredible year. He's amazing. Yeah, he's amazing.

And I actually think some of these teams we're talking about should go ahead. And you're going to roll the dice when it comes to his health. But he has been able to put together a good stretch right now where he's mostly been healthy. And it makes a lot of sense to me why Milwaukee would be thinking about it. Chris Middleton is a problem. And I like Chris a lot.

But it's just the difficulties he is having. Physically, performance-wise, even now that he is back going scoreless the other night, this is something the Bucs look at it like everybody else. And you talk about ceilings. They know we are not competing with Boston, OKC, Cleveland, any of these teams with this current group.

But they are also already so out over their skis from an asset standpoint, you know, all in as much as anybody in the NBA when they made the trade for Damian Lillard that, you know, I think the internal discussion there is like, my goodness, are we really doing this again? Whether it's Levine, whether it's Butler, I think those are all real conversations that are being had.

And I'm very curious to see what they do because standing pat seems problematic to me. They're not good enough. Yeah, you got Giannis to sign the long-term extension, but if they stand pat and they bow out in the first round again, and I know it gets tired from a fan standpoint, but it's like we're just going to restart the whole is Giannis happy discussion again.

Yeah, definitely. Yeah. But also they don't have, it requires, you know, I think the guy, the player wanting to be there. Right. Because they don't have much to offer. You know, they can't compete with, we didn't mention Memphis, by the way, that's another good one. Yeah. And from an asset standpoint, they can't compete with teams like that.

But it was reported, and it's true, that Jimmy, his camp has sent word several times to Memphis that he's not interested in playing for the Grizzlies. That was not the case with Milwaukee. So, okay, can you kind of use that to your advantage, the idea that Jimmy might actually want to be here? Can you make that happen? With Zach, does Zach want to be in Milwaukee?
