It seems like every time the Milwaukee Bucks lose a game, a new team emerges as a trade candidate for Giannis Antetokounmpo<\/a>. Truth be fair, when the first report<\/a> of a Giannis trade came out, the Brooklyn Nets<\/a> and the Miami Heat were among his preferable places.\u00a0There are plenty of questions around these rumors: do the Nets have enough assets to entice Milwaukee in a trade? Would Giannis love to play there? Can the Nets actually compete with Giannis on the roster and their supporting cast?<\/p>\n

NBA Analyst Bill Simmons Links Giannis to the Nets Nets in Potential Trade<\/h2>\n

The latest sportsperson to suggest a Giannis Nets trade is Bill Simmons. While he is not an insider, Simmons is a long-time analyst; he has been around the league for way too long to know something is cooking. And where there is smoke, there is fire.\u00a0Speaking with Sal Iacono aka Cousin Sal, another non-reporter NBA fan, Bill suggested that the Nets might make the most sense out of all the options on the market. He said,<\/p>\n

\u201cNets are like pretty good, you know they don’t have, like they traded Bridges for all these picks they were supposed to try to tank, they got their pick back, they have just a shitload of picks they have Cam Thomas,<\/a> who I was really impressed by who’s a very good scorer. They have like a bunch of good, not stars, but like enough of a team that the team makes sense when you watch it\u201d.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
