lol I’m so tired of (hearing about) this guy. Just as bad as the Carmelo saga and Dwightmare. “Me no ask for trade. You no hear that from me. Me no speak for me agent or what other people are saying. Me want to stay Buck but me cannot predict the future. Ask me tomorrow or a week from now or a month from now or 6 months from now, me answer may change. But me want to stay Buck. That’s what you hear from me.”
Apparently he wants to stay in the East. 2 months later it'll be "I want to stay in Milwaukee" 2 months later it'll be "I want a trade" A month later "I never asked for a trade"
He might not want the judgment that comes from playing guilt-free on a team that has no chance at winning a championship. I say let him stay there and get lucky and compete again or not get lucky and finish his career with only one title run. Durant is the cautionary tale. Durant didn't want the judgment of playing guilt-free on an overpowered team and winning championships. So, he's been trying to prove himself worthy ever since and that's led him to bounce from team to team. Even his move to Golden State was him desperately and blindly chasing a championship.
There's a word called "sentimentality". A certain house you bought with good life memories. The schools district in which he sends his children and relationships formed. The thought of leaving that all that behind motivates him to try to make it work in Milwaukee. Giannis is the type of guy that goes out and takes advantage of a lower key area like the Milwaukee area and socializes publicly without being constantly hounded by the press.
