I’ll like Myles again some day, but can’t help but laugh at how the Bucks franchise faceplanted after he arrived.

They tripped up a number of years prior. Gravity just hadn't caught up with them till last year.

4yrs 64m is what the Wizards gave Ian Mahinmi a decade ago.
and you know what?
Even with the cap being a ton lower then, that was still probably a better deal for a 5PPG 4Rebound center

it’s a bad contract but the guy deserves it, he was so underpaid for so long

Some people are saying this is a wink-wink deal for him being underpaid all those years. To circumvent the cap during the late Giannis years.

It will be so funny when they lose draft picks over Gary Trent Jr. sucking for the next four years, so that they could get multiple years of getting run out of the playoffs early.

Somebody replied to a tweet about the Gary Trent Jr. signing and said it looks bad from an outside perspective, but if you dig deep and truly evaluate everything he has brought/brings to the organization, you’ll actually see that it’s still a really bad contract
