Yeah, so I would put this in the category of just things to monitor, not trying to sit here and take that spotlight and put it fully on Milwaukee by any means. Admittedly, the main reason that I looked into this particular topic was because it had been reported that Memphis and Milwaukee were told by Jimmy's camp to not pursue him, that he did not have any...

hopes or dreams of a long term future in either of those cities. Now, admittedly, in terms of my reporting style, I've got a real aversion to I don't like, you know, pushing back on stuff that is out there just professionally.

And I was told by both sides that Milwaukee was not told that they are out. Now, to the question of, you know, how they see the situation, are they interested in Jimmy? I would just say stay tuned. I think the background that is worth remembering is that, you know, a couple of basic things, right? We know Milwaukee is underperformed.

When they got beat the other night by the Knicks really badly, Giannis got my eyebrows raised when he talked after the game about how they were 0-8 against the top three teams in the East. They have a history of going after big fish, if you will, obviously, with Damian Lillard coming to town that way. And they have a short runway there.

when it comes to age and i think a level of desperation potentially that if i was in that front office with john horst and their group kicking this idea around i think it would at least be worth chewing on it's interesting to talk about the bucks and the urgency that they have but what about from the miami heat side

Again, I'm going to go back to the old stay tuned kind of label on this one because as we get to the end of this week and we have the Miami-Denver game on Friday where all eyes are going to be on Miami. how the Heat handled Jimmy's return. As I reported, he does plan on showing up and clocking in.
