Because of three injured Achilles tendons, the Bucks are determined to bet a big shot, Antetokounmpo s dissatisfaction is true or false

Judging from the various news on the first day of the free agent market, although it is lively enough, it is far from the "explosion" level claimed by famous reporter Shams Charania. But as the Milwaukee Bucks joined the battle, the situation changed, fully explaining what it means to "if you don't make a sound, you'll make a splash." The Bucks management cleverly used the extension clause to cut Lillard, and used the created salary space to sign the inside pillar Miles Turner, the runner-up of the new Serie A total.

At first glance, the Bucks management's operations are quite crazy. After all, the maximum-paid player with a $60 million is cut at any time and has not discussed it with the parties involved in advance. This way of playing is unheard of. But if you think about it carefully, there are often extremely reasonable motivations hidden under the unreasonable appearance. What are the stags? What they are aiming at is the window period for the decline in the overall strength of the Eastern Conference in the new season. The ultimate goal is to keep Giannis Antetokounmpo's heart. This summer, Old Rivers' chicken soup has stabilized Antetokounmpo, but it will never be a problem if this continues, and results are the king.

To put it bluntly, three injured Achilles tendons promoted this crazy operation. As we all know, the 2024-25 season is very difficult for the Eastern Conference's powerful men. Halliburton, Tatum and Lillard were reimbursed due to Achilles tendon injuries, which has aroused deep concerns about the health of the players. From the Bucks' perspective, Halliburton and Tatum are injured, so the competitiveness of the Eastern Conference in the new season will be much worse than before. This is a good opportunity to break through. At the same time, Lillard, as a patient, becomes a burden.

Authentic, in the next five years, the salary space of $25 million will be occupied every year, which is also a very heavy burden, but it is worth it to find Turner and win in the present. Interestingly, the Pacers originally released news that they would pay the luxury tax again after 20 years, and even planned to issue a new contract of 30 million yuan in annual salary. Also because of Halliburton's Achilles tendon injury, they were unwilling to pay the luxury tax in vain when the team was not competitive, so they let Turner go, who was originally planning to buy a house in Indianapolis.

Theoretically, Myers Turner and Antetokounmpo have a very high relationship and are a perfect match. Last season, Turner averaged 15.6 points, 6.5 rebounds and 2 blocks per game, with a three-point shooting percentage of 39.6%, a career high. A No. 5 position like Turner, who has two block kings and three-point shooting ability, can provide support to the Greek monsters on both offense and defense, is a powerful addition to Lopez's departure. The combination of Antetokounmpo and Turner is worth looking forward to.

But Antetokounmpo seemed unhappy - Giannis just expressed his reluctance to leave Lopez on his personal social media, and the team cut off Lillard. It is said that this operation made Antetokounmpo very dissatisfied. But it is interesting to note that Antetokounmpo is really dissatisfied? After all, the two have worked together for two years and have not achieved much success, but their character and qualities have made them good friends. Although the management has a lot of courage in this operation, they can't applaud at this critical moment. In terms of etiquette and respect, Giannis also has to make a statement, but in fact, the Bucks made a decision that is more beneficial to Antetokounmpo and the team.
