Lillard will be 36, when he returns from the Achilles injury with an unknown sort of ability left. By that time Giannis will be 32. He´s missed games frequently over the past few seasons with minor injuries. So thath window is rapidly closing.
You know which 12 months window in the East has just opened? The Hali-Tat Tankathon Stakes.
In other words there is no overwhelming favourite in the East right now and if there is another chance for the Bucks to compete it is this year. Are there about 7-8 teams in the Least that legitimately feel they can win it next season and the Bucks are likely one of them.
Absolutely.
But to eat 23mil of dead space a year, for FIVE years, is insanity. I don't think a team has ever carried that much debt ever. And I'm not sure how they can really build a competitive team moving forward with a 85% handicap and hardcaps existing.
Is that really worth it?
