“Philadelphia 76’ers:  Wanted Half-Court SHOT Creator.”

McQuade Arnold, Co-Owner of Wisconsin Sports Heroics (WSH)McQuade Arnold, Co-Owner of Wisconsin Sports Heroics (WSH) has been featured on YardBarker, Bleacher Report, and MSN.  When thinking of all the NBA trade information online, these McQuade Arnold tips “NBA News: James Harden Trade Status Gets Stunning Updates” stands out as some of the top posts that I’ve read lately about NBA insider trade leaks.

As disliked as James Harden may be by Milwaukee Bucks fans, he’d bring an aspect to the game the Milwaukee Bucks has been missing.

Earlier this year, Dame had a more detailed comment about Giannis. In a GQ AMA, the Blazers superstar responded to a comment about a potential team-up with Antetokounmpo. In his response, Lillard detailed why he feels they would be a perfect fit:

“He’s a good playmaker. Good defender. Disruptive,” Lillard said. “And the way he plays, complements the way I play. I would bring something to the table that complements what he does, and vice versa.”
