  • Yep, it's happening.

  • The rumors are officially starting, and I feel bad for Bucks fans, but at some point, the noise just gets too loud and you have to address it.

  • We officially have a report that, if true, would change the MBA and make the Warriors bigger and better than Michael Jordan's Bulls bleacher report says People inside the league believe the Warriors traded for Andrew Wiggins just to get Jonah Santana Campo.

  • Salaries do match.

  • Golden State can offer Wiggins, plus their own pick, potentially number one overall and Minnesota's pick in 2021.

  • That's in the lottery.

  • The top three protected.

  • This obviously would change the league and basically decide the championship the next 4 to 5 years.

  • But is that deal enough to get Johannes or the Bucks even trying to hear this?

  • You know what?

  • They may have no choice.

  • This is an explosive rumor, but it's actually the latest whisper that we've heard.

  • That suggests Johannes could leave the Bucks in search of a title.

  • And this video.

  • We're breaking down how we got here with the honest maybe leaving the Bucks, what a deal would look like with warriors or some other team, and I need you guys to tell me in the comments.

  • Which deal would you take?

  • If you're the Bucks, would you just walk away?

  • Hey, guys, it's case secured and host the A moves YouTube channel.

  • Just dropped a fresh pot this morning.

  • Hit.

  • Subscribe If you don't already coming out with five quality videos Monday through Friday, dropping at six Eastern.

  • Say, what's up on Twitter at Casey Urine or over on I G at AM Hoops?

  • Okay, so first thing, why would you honest leave a team that he loves that loves him back.

  • He's been playing with his whole career and who compan a lot more money.

  • While the Super Max contract was actually created to help small markets like Milwaukee keep big stores like Johannes away from teams like the Warriors.

  • If he's all n b a R m v p et cetera, he can take up the 35% of the salary cap for Johannes.

  • That would be 247 million bucks that Milwaukee could give them over five seasons.

  • That's 90 million more dollars than any other team could offer.

  • It would be the biggest contract in MBA history.

  • Not bad for a kid whose only goal at one time waas.

  • Oh, it'll be being so.

  • That's all good if your Milwaukee.

  • But here's the problem.

  • Players eligible for the Supermax.

  • Consign it in the last year of their old deal, which means, if they don't sign it, that last year could be pretty awkward.

  • So even though Johannes is a free agent two summers from now, really, it's this coming summer when will know that means that this postseason could be it for Milwaukee.

  • This is their chance to make sure that you're on.

  • It stays.

  • But again, why would he leave?

  • Well, your answer is in Los Angeles, Kalai Leonard and Anthony Davis.

  • Both guys, were eligible for the Super Max with the Spurs and with New Orleans, and both guys turned it down Coli.

  • Even though it wasn't offered to him, it would have been.

  • He left $118 million on the table, going from San Antonio to Toronto to L.

  • A.

  • 118 million.

  • They leave that kind of money on the table because it's about more than money to some of these big stars I mean, I don't know what it's like to have 100 million bucks, but I guess 50 million Maur isn't that big of a deal.

  • Or maybe these guys want to live in a certain city like L.

  • A or in this case, San Francisco.

  • But forget money or where you live.

  • I think Johannes is motivated by winning.

  • He's not one of these flashy guys who's concerned about his fit before a game or dating some celebrity supermodel.

  • I do believe he wants to win in Milwaukee, but if he can't do it, I think he'd be willing to leave.

  • So find that title.

  • A report by ESPN is Mallika Andrews came out shortly after the Bucks were eliminated in last year's playoffs.

  • It's said that Johannes may want to lead Milwaukee if the team doesn't make enough improvements to reach the N B A Finals this year.

  • Johannes didn't like that report, even walked out on that reporter in the place.

  • You know, sometimes it takes experience and wondering if now that you have some of that experience, if you see more validity to that point, or what you think about that now that you've gone through it.

  • Well, good, awkward.

  • Then there was the Harvard Business Journal who quoted Johannes.

  • They said that Johannes said, if they don't want a title, this year will be more difficult to re sign You Honest clapped back at that report to claimed he never said those words so clearly.

  • Honest.

  • Doesn't want to be a distraction in all this to Milwaukee, like he's seen other superstars be in the past.

  • But a clock is ticking here for the Bucks.

  • If he doesn't sign that Supermax extension this summer, a trade could be in the works.

  • So the Warriors reportedly are planning just in case that scenario plays out, they could offer Andrew Wiggins their own draft pick.

  • May be number one, and Minnesota's top three protected the falling year.

  • Look, another team's offer.

  • Well, the Anthony Davis trade to the Lakers kind of similar to this ya honest one we're talking about that got New Orleans, three players, three first round picks and to pick swaps.

  • So here's the list of teams that could get a deal like that done.

  • Let's quickly go through all these scenarios, and we'll see which ones are realistic.

  • So the Hawks get the honest.

  • The books get Jeff Teague, Trey Young, Atlanta's first round pigs in 2020 and 2022 in Oklahoma City's first round pick in 2022.

  • The Celtics get Yonas the Bucks get Jason Tatum, Marcus Smart in his cancer, The Seas first rounders in 2020 and 2022.

  • And Memphis is 20 21st round pick.

  • The Pelicans get Johannes.

  • The Bucks get Zion Williamson, J.

  • J.

  • Reddick and just two first round picks here because of how valuable Zion would be the telly's 20 21st rounder and the Lakers in 2021.

  • The Thunder get Johannes.

  • The Bucks get Shea Gil, just Alexander and Steven Adams, plus Denver's 20 21st rounder, Miami's in 2021 and the Clippers in 2022.

  • The Sixes get Johannes and the Buckskin, Joel and Bead and two first rounders.

  • 2021 2023.

  • The sons get Johannes, the Bucks get Devin Booker and the sun's first rounders in 2020 22 the Raptors get Yonas and the Bucks get passed out.

  • See ya.

  • Come in two first round pigs in 2020 2022 and finally the Wizards get Jahn is four.

  • Bradley Beal, the Wizard's first rounders and 20 and 22 other Detroit or Chicago's 2022 2nd round pick, which is more like a low first.

  • Now, I think if on the books I would prefer any one of those big players mentioned in all those deals over Andrew Wiggins.

  • But the issue here is that John is, if he wants to, could undercut all of those deals by saying that he will only re sign with Golden State.

  • That was the issue for the Spurs and cool I Leonard.

  • I mean, why did they only get a pic to Mardirosian?

  • Jaca, Pirtle?

  • Because report said that Kawai was going L A either way and those reports prove true.

  • So if the Bucks don't win this postseason, at least get to the N b A finals and be competitive.

  • Johannes could want out, and he might want the Warriors beyond just this rumor.

  • Recently, Stephan Curry was seen talking to you, honest.

  • When the Bucks played the Warriors, it reminded people of Steph being extra friendly with Kevin Durant while he was still with Oklahoma City.

  • Now lip readers try to figure out what they're saying here.

  • But yeah, who's Chris Haynes?

  • Just texted stuff, and this is what he said.

  • Look, all he was doing was giving honest his gamer tag for an online game called Player Unknowns.

  • Battle Grounds, he said.

  • He told me, Honest, come see me on this game.

  • We can team up, do some damage.

  • Let's do it.

  • Come on.

  • What?

  • I'm sorry, But if I'm a box fan, that report doesn't exactly make me feel comfortable, even if he's talking about an online game, Okay, But let's just say Honest does want Steph Curry and not Chris Middleton to be the second best player on his team.

  • What would that do to John?

  • Is his reputation if he refused to sign the Supermax this summer?

  • I mean, we saw how much Kevin Durant was ripped after he moved to Golden State.

  • But what about like Anthony Davis?

  • He demanded that trade out of New Orleans.

  • I think people would definitely blew the heck out of Johannes and it would be bad in the moment, but I think people would get over it.

  • I mean, just look at a D.

  • Yeah, people made him out to be the villain temporarily.

  • But is anyone saying right now he should have stayed New Orleans?

  • Maybe outside of Louisiana?

  • Of course not.

  • He had to go to L.

  • A to team up with another superstar.

  • And if 80 wins a title, he'll be celebrated as a Laker.

  • And for all the people, saying the honest to the Warriors would be bad for the league.

  • As much as they hate to admit it, people love dynasties.

  • College football is hugely popular.

  • Alabama.

  • The NFL has become the most popular sport.

  • Obviously, they've got a dynasty.

  • And when was baseball its most popular in recent decades, when the Yankees were dominating the sport?

  • Is it a coincidence that the Warriors dynasty is paused this year and the ratings have dipped?

  • I don't think it would be bad for the MBA at all if you're honest left Milwaukee.

  • But there is another option that we haven't mentioned yet.

  • Milwaukee could say, OK, we hear your trade request.

  • We're just not gonna honor it.

  • We're gonna let it ride and bet that we win a title this final year.

  • It would be the ultimate gamble.

  • I mean, on one hand, you've got the M V p on your team, one last shot to win your first championship in 49 years.

  • On the other hand, you risk letting that guy walk for nothing when you could have brought back a whole and set up your future without it.

  • So let me know what you would do if you're the Bucks.

  • It's a really interesting conundrum, right?

  • At least it's a lot of pressure on this post season.

  • And again, I think for you honest.

  • He values winning over loyalty over money.

  • And those things are great, but you can't have it all.

  • Sometimes in pro sports.

  • He'll leave Milwaukee to win a championship if he has to, and that could be it.

  • A Golden State support.
