If we were all being honest, I think the vast majority of us would swap rosters with the Bucks in an instant.
That team has made some smart moves and also had the good fortune to get the #2 pick in a two player draft. They are further along in their rebuild because they've got a handful of core pieces with star potential already identified.
It's OK to admit they're better off than the Celtics. Doesn't make you a bad fan.
Definitely would swap rosters, but not sure I'd swap all assets including draft picks. Probably would, though. If Giannis and Parker have big years next year, the Bucks will be a "destination team" and maybe one piece away from being contenders (with lots of cap space). All told, however, things could ultimately break the C's way in the Bucks-Celtics comparison.
I would literally give my ear, or a testicle, to swap rosters with the Bucks.
They can have all our picks, all our players etc, EXCEPT our coach.
Can you imagine Brad Stevens working with young talent like that?
We do have some good pieces in Smart+Sully+Rozier+Hunter+Zeller+Crowder and IT is a valuable trade chip. The Brooklyn picks are nice.
But I'd prefer Parker+Giannis+Middleton+Henson+Monroe.
It's too bad they got rid of Knight because they'd be an awesome young team this year with him.
Man the Bucks have drafted well outside the top 10 over the years.
