The Bucks have reached an agreement to acquire both Drew Holiday and Bogdan Bogdanovich.

Milwaukee is going to send Eric Bledsoe, George Hill and three first round picks to the pelicans for holiday.

The deal also includes a couple of pics swaps.

In addition, the Bucks reaching an agreement in principle with Sacramento on a sign and trade that will bring Bogdanovich and Justin Jaymes to the Bucks.

But the king's receiving Donte DiVincenzo, D.

J.

Wilson and your son Ilyasova.

So perk.

Ah, lot of their depth now is a team has been traded away, and they traded away some of their future.

Do you think the bucks gave up too much in these trades or it's what they had to dio?

No, they're doing exactly what they have to do.

Listen, Rachel, the Bucks are winning and they are winning big right now.

Getting Drew Holiday was a must for them, and it should have been a breath of fresh after Yanda's Drew holiday is one of the most underrated players in today's game, one of the best two way players in today's game.

Ah, God, that could give you 20 to 20 going in and lock up your best guard or wing, the wing person on the other end.

And by the way, he's a closer now.

Chris Militant could go to that third option, which he is, and let drew holiday be that second guy, that Robin.

And then you get by Donovan from from from Sacramento List.

This kid is a bucket.

So right now I'm looking at this Milwaukee Bucks scene and they are winning and they have the best starting five in the NBA right now, period.

Really?

Kendrick Perkins Solid this solid.

But listen, when you got a M V p caliber caliber, but a two time M V P player on your team, you could never do too much to try to appease him.

And Andrew, and by Donovan is exactly what the doctor ordered in order to try toe maintain keeping you honest for years to come, he said, Is he way asked him, Is he gonna sign an extension?

And he said, Hold up, let me see what management is going to do.

And I think they proved their point that they wanna get better.

They're gonna continue to try to get better.

Aziz, long as they have a M V P player in this prime.

And this is what it takes when you do make moves like this.

Yeah, absolutely.

I love the Drew holiday move.

Not only is he all those things you guys both mentioned, he's such a high character guy.

He's so good in locker rooms.

All of his teammates have loved him.

Whoever has played with him that matters when you're trying to win a title and Bogdanovich man, no fear, right, That guy will shoot at any time.

A championship kind of environment.

MBA finals conference finals are not gonna be too much for him.

I'm fine with them giving up a lot because the way it could possibly activate young a sense of coupon that Supermax for them.

But, Paul, do you think that by giving up this much of their future, they already have the wink and nod from Yannas that he is going to sign?

As long as they made these moves, Do you think they have some understanding with him?

Or that it's just on spec and they will come back to him now and say, Okay, we did it.

What do you think?

Well, you know when you have a player that holds the way to your franchise.

I mean, there's a lot of conversations that's been made, Of course, even in doing this deal, they talk to you honest and asked him what he thought.

And so when they make this deal, maybe they do have some of the table, like say, Hey, honestly, this is what we could do to get better.

We have this extension on the table you're gonna see we're gonna continue each and every year.

It doesn't work out this year.

We're gonna do something else to get better.

And so I kind of figured that they probably have something on the table to say, Hey, he's saying that like, Look, I'm gonna sign here in long term because you guys have really showed me.

I mean, this was a great move for them.

I mean, not only did they get to consistent players that they even lacking the guys that make plays at the end of the Games.

That's the thing I worried about most for the Milwaukee Bucks.

In it again, who's gonna close?

You know, A lot of people say Janos, was that pipping, you know, he doesn't have the consistent jumper to be that the end of the games.

But now you got two guys withdrew Bogdanovich.

That could help in that department e So perk you said You think this is the best starting five in the league?

I don't know about best Start.

Go ahead.

Go ahead.

Up there.

Yeah.

I mean, if you go if you if you look if you look at it, you got Drew.

Holiday starting at the point.

You got Johannes starting at the four.

You gonna probably put by Donna bitch at the two Chris Militant at the three.

And you still have Brook Lopez toe anchor your defense and to stretch the floor.

Who got that?

Opens up the lane with five.

Right now in the N B A.

Is LeBron and a D in any other three.

That's the best starting five right now.

So don't discredit the champs in the players that they could put me.

You're actually a best starting five in the league.

Come on, now.

You're giving them too much credit.

Let's see him on the on the court.

Did you just I can't believe that Paul Pierce is actually praising LeBron a.

Okay, that's cool.

But that's cool.

That's cool, though.

People, what I'm saying is right now in the free agency, the Milwaukee Bucks have built the team, and if you put this starting five compared to any starting five in the NBA right now, they have the better.

Starting five cannot name me a better starting five than this Milwaukee Bucks.

You gave me two players, Anthony Davis and LeBron J.

Lest they don't matter who they are, that's the best starting five.

Well, let me narrow it down to the Eastern Conference guys, because, of course, this is where this team is going to compete in.

You look at what's going on in Boston.

You look at what's going on with the Nets, whether they get James Harden or not, they've got Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving.

How good do you think the Bucks are now?

Are they just in Eastern Conference finals team?

When you look at the other teams around, do you think they're an MBA Finals team or a championship team?

Where are you on that?

But for me, there are 60 win team, and that's what they've been the last couple years.

But they still got more to prove you honest has to be that guy.

He's been a M V P.

Yes, but he has to bring.

He has to prove to me that he can close these games out.

You know, he got some help now, and you know something about the Bucks when they get into the playoffs, that great regular season.

But there's something about them.

They get their heart taken in the playoffs, and, you know, it's hard for me to give him that right now.

Yeah, but P, that's that's why they went out and got Drew Holiday.

Just like they have playoff Rondo Drew.

Holiday elevates his game just like Rondo in the playoffs, and his number shows that that's why they went.

Got Drew Holiday because he is a closer by Donovan.

Well, I watched him for the Sacramento Kings.

Well, it was multiple times he took over game.

So they have those pieces.

And we when we watched Chris Militant take over against the Miami in Miami, Siri's Although they lost, he has some big performances when Yanez went out.

So I'm looking at it.

That's they added the pieces that they need.
