Giannis Rumor Grumblings...
Giannis today removed any mention of the Bucks off his social media accounts except the posts related to the Bucks winning the Championship and NBA Cup. All other mentions of him in a Bucks uniform was removed.
He changed his profile image of him in a Bucks uniform to the national Greece uniform.

Re: Giannis Rumor Grumblings...
This confirms what I have long suspected: NBA players care about winning the Cup after all.
Re: Giannis Rumor Grumblings...
"Giannis contributes nothing and I don’t want him in our country. I hear he ripped off the state of Wisconsin for billions of dollars every year and he contributes nothing. His country is no good for a reason; their country stinks and we don’t want him here. If we keep taking in garbage into our country- his friends are garbage. These are people that do nothing but complain, and I don’t care if that’s politically incorrect."

Re: Giannis Rumor Grumblings...
After losing to Washington ... it shows Bucks need more than a ghost Lopez (TURNER) Guy should be averaging 10 boards and at least 12-15 ppg .. NOT EVEN CLOSE
Their second best player is Kevin (Porter Jr - my guy)
Giannis will ask to be traded in the off season -
Why -
Trent is done , BobbY P. no defense , and it took AJ Green 20 games to start hitting shots.
Doesn't pan out
Re: Giannis Rumor Grumblings...
Expecting a guy that has never averaged more than 8 boards to get 10? Might be a you problem not a turner problem.
Re: Giannis Rumor Grumblings...
Sorry I can't get behind it. This is teenage girl drama nonsense. Deleting bucks stuff from your social media? Lol.
Whatever beef you have with management shouldn't extend to the team or organization as a whole. It's disrespectful to your teammates and even more disrespectful to the fans.
I'm sick of these athletes burning every bridge on their way out. If I were a fan of the bucks I would be pissed. I wouldn't care if he won a championship.

Dude the floor is wide open on weak sides ... I could get 10 boards and I am not even close to 7'
he camps out by three and has lunch in the offense
I watch every game

problem is Turner was supposed to be the answer to Lopez's dwindling offense.
he failed to bring it.

But none of that is new. Turner can't rebound well. Whether you want to chalk that up to him camping out at the 3pt line, going for blocks, or just bad hands or something, everyone should have expected it.
He has been on different versions of the Pacers, playing slow, playing fast, playing PF, playing Center. None of it made a difference. He was always around 6-7 boards a night.
Hopeless optimism to expect more.

6-7 boards ... I wish .. he is averaging about 3.
Tonight against Detroit he was pulled played 20 minutes
Sims cam in scored lik 15 and had 14 boards and was a difference maker.
They beat pistons without gimpy giannis.
trade him to warriors ,, get kimingis and draft picks.

As I state Warriors would be a great option with picks ...
But what about prying Booker away from the Suns ???
Booker would still keep Milwaukee in the playoffs for years to come and draft picks would help in future rebuilds/
In other words I have seen this before Kareem and other teams in the league/ Giannis is GONE.
Re: Giannis Rumor Grumblings...
I'd still like to see Kimingus in a Bucks uni // but doubt Warriors would take Trent , Portis and possibly another for him.
Re: Giannis Rumor Grumblings...
After losing to the Wizards on Dec 1 Giannis is like get me the F outta here :lol
Re: Giannis Rumor Grumblings...
he's gone for sure, just waiting to find the right suitor/situation. but i think the decision has been made.
Re: Giannis Rumor Grumblings...
Reports of Luka personally discussing various trade scenarios for Giannis with Lakers FO. Giannis and Luka have likely been discussing this for awhile. Injury almost certainly fake.
