Wow! Just catching up now. With the mindset of Giannis being here another 8-10 years, it was probably time to face reality and get younger across the board ASAP.Originally Posted by Goose85
Myles Turner is 29 (Brook Lopez was 37) and Damian Lillard turns 35 in 2 weeks. Bittersweet, no doubt, but Lillard has gotten injured the last 2 postseasons. This might sound harsh, but I think they are getting out at the right time. At times, with Lillard out, the ball movement was better and a bit like the Pacers offense. I love Lillard's shooting, he is in the same category with Curry, I just wonder if it got to the point of weighing the money versus age/availability and long-term outlook with Giannis finishing his career in Milwaukee.

The Bucks should be close to what is going on with the Dame injury recovery, and like you said mufan2003, they might be thinking it is a good time to get out.
If Dame can't play at all next year, then you only have him one more year. With age and coming off the injury and blood clots, seems like 4 years of Turner for one year of Dame is a pretty good trade off.
Can the Bucks get anything for Kuzma, or is he worth keeping?
Kuzma....underwhelming postseason performance to say the least. I am sure Jon Horst and the organization will be doing their due diligence in regards to all facets of the team. Not sure if you can get something better in return for Kuzma. Positive spin would be hoping he performs better with a full season in Milwaukee, versus coming over mid-season before the trade deadline.
I have always liked his size, length and still relatively young.....he shows flashes but needs to become more consistent and reliable.
In what appears to be a salary dump, the Bucks trade Connaughton to the Hornets, along with future 2nd round picks, for a guy that is likely to go back to Europe to play.
Bucks also re-signed Jerico Sims.

A bit surprising:

That is interesting, as I thought he was a pretty good development player. Hopefully they still consider bringing him back.
Wonder if that means something else is in play at the point guard position. Maybe a Kuzma move?
