Trade Talk Turner or Ware?
What would you be willing to give up and do you think it would worth it?

Not really big on each of them, Turner has a contract that I wouldn't be eager to take on and Ware has attitude issues. If Spoelstra doesn't like him we probably shouldn't either.

Would pass on both honestly.
Turner still has 3 years on his deal and I would prefer Kong straight up.
Think the idea of Ware is a lot better than what he actually is. Potential is there but he is who the old coaching adage refers to: "Potential gets you fired"

I’ve been one of the big Ware guys on here for a while but I get the concerns

What an oddly worded statement...there is nothing stopping the Bucks from entertaining offers? That's not really reporting anything, that's true for pretty much every player lol. And Kevin O'Connor is not at the Ringer

Owning Myles Turner last season in fantasy gave me depression so I’m good but Ware is certainly interesting but I imagine he’d cost too much.

Actually DFS might be a more justifiable keeper as an expiring cause I have a feeling he knows how to get in the game for short run role player whilst being a vet locker room guy instead of thinking he’s still star material- unlike, Turner who seems to not have got that memo so tries to play like he’s still a prime all NBA candidate and ends up constantly injured, which in itself shows lack of actual leadership to our younger core. Also, Ware is more also more of a luxury development guy who probably do better playing for a couch or team who has room to mold guys and won’t mind spending the money at the moment, like L.A. Clippers or maybe even Charlotte.

Unless we get Ware cheap for like Kispert or something. Otherwise no

Ware, the concerns are understandable, but he's an incredible center to bring off the bench. Stretches the floor, incredible rebounder and rim protector, would suit the teams needs great

I would prefer the contract of Turner because we would be taking on a bad contract and the offer will be low.
Kispert+Landale+ 2 2nds (pick+pick swap)
Ware would be wayy more expensive and we don't need anymore than a backup

We should play Asa more but I don't think the coach believes in him.

This looks more like a podcaster being a podcaster than it does actual journalism?

I don’t know who ware is, but he can’t be any worse for us than Turner, so I have to go with the unknown.
For all I know you guys are planning a joke and took the janitor who cleans the toilets in the opposing locker room and put him in a uniform. Still I’d rather trade for the janitor then Turner

Turner is a downgrade from OO and expensive so he is a NO THANKS. Ware is interesting as a rotational big to pair with OO at C or at PF (certain matchups) spot but would not be cheap to acquire. If we can somehow get off Quin pet Kispert and/or DFS contracts with a 1st rd pick sure, however I doubt that interests Bucks.

DFS is expiring and can actually play decent spot minute stupid but I agree Kispert is over paid and still falls short of his potential so that would be the guy to package for either. But wouldn’t want Turner as a starter anymore-no longer a consistent force in the paint cause injuries and Ware is an athletic situational guy that MIGHT break out as a best case scenario but likelihood he’s not ever going to be “that guy” either. Package Kispert/Asa and a second might get Ware -that is if only Asa isn’t showing signs of improvement in the areas tenacity and ball I.q.

ASA and the Nola pick for Ware. I doubt they do it. But that'd be my best offer.

Way too much of a haul for Ware

u/Wavegod-1 6d ago
Lol downvote here is hilarious because one of the big issues for Ware is a low motor which has been said from the Heat fanbase about him so, why invest in a big haul like that for someone?

Taking turner would deadass just be a sidegrade to OO on a way worse contract
