I'd call them unproven at this point, and have no problem saying of them, "Stay away, unless they change agents."

How much of Simmons have you watched? He's definitely proven to have All-Star level ability to me.

To be honest, I've not seen a single NBA game he has played. But I don't care if he's Michael Jordan, Wilt Chamberlain, and Bill Russell rolled into one, as long as he's a Klutch klient I don't want anything to do with him.

I see a rumour for brogdon and Henson
I think there were a few Henson fans on here
He basically works as a chandler replacement of sorts

It seems like a ok return but in terms of team fit and balance I actually like it a bit

Now can we get that 2nd rounder we should have gotten in the ish Smith trade all those years ago ! :D

Henson's contract isn't great, but if we get Brogdon, I'll take it.

Idk. I'm with McDonough. No money past '19. Booker's extension kicks in then & we need to sign FAs.

So. Would you do Bledsoe and Troy Daniels for Brogdon and Monroe? No picks. Monroe's deal is up next summer, so he is basically an expiring. He is not living up to his contract at all.

How about Bledsoe and Chandler for Brogdon, Monroe, Mirza?

MIL probably says no to that one.

Wherever he ends up, he's probably going to demand that max extension and cause problems if he doesn't get it. So unless somebody actually wants to give him that extension, I expect interest to be limited.

This slightly reminds me of when Marion wanted the max extension before his time was up and got upset with Kerr.

How is this even a debate? I would do it in a heartbeat.

Wish we could find a way to keep Daniels. He's a deadly 3-point shooter, and we need more of that. Can we throw in some other young player instead? Or throw in a future 2nd-rounder instead of Daniels?

You may not like how McD has alienated players (Dragic, Morris, Bled) but let’s not act like he hasn’t gotten surprisingly good returns on his trades of these players after everyone had said their trade values had been ruined. I have 100% confidence that McD will maximize the trade value. I don’t have confidence that he’ll then use the assets acquired to form a cohesive unit.
McD's major strength also seems to be signing guys to value contracts (there's 3 players in here and you can probably throw in Warren):

And all 3 of them became toxic. Can he sign somebody to a value contract we don't end up needing to dump?

Is there a scenario where you wouldn’t want to have dumped them? Just basketball wise, I’m glad we got/are getting rid of those 3

Brogdon is just as good a shooter. You can't have too much shooting, but adding Brogdon lessens the blow a bit and Milwaukee needs to replace Brogdon's shooting and would want Daniels over other options.
