This week, we revisited the biggest trade in franchise history (sorry, Mr Abdul-Jabbar), taking in early-season results, player form, and respective end-goals to try and determine who, if either team, won the transaction that sent Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bobby Portis to the Miami Heat in exchange for Tyler Herro, Jaime Jaquez Jr., Kel’el Ware, Kasparas Jakučionis, and picks, including what ended up being Nate Ament.

One foot on the other side
While most thought it was too early to tell and 23% leaned negative, a nearly-equal 20% of voters have found their footing on the other side of the fence, feeling the Bucks did, in fact, win the trade. However, as MKE said, it all came—and comes—down to (hard luck and) circumstance:
Talk later?
Overall, whether fans saw the Bucks as winners, losers, or something in between, a prominent throughline was that this question needs to be revisited later in the year—and beyond:
