The NBA fined the Philadelphia 76ers $100,000 for violating injury reporting rules when they listed Joel Embiid as "out" against the Atlanta Hawks on Nov. 30 and he subsequently played.

Question:  does the league care about this stuff more for competitive integrity purposes, or to satisfy bettors?

ESPN Cleveland: Brian Windhorst: The Bucks called the Knicks and asked for an offer for Giannis Antetokounmpo, because Giannis said, 'I want to be a Knick.' .... Guys, Giannis has asked to be traded already. It appears Giannis committed to himself for the season to the Bucks. But the Bucks are not good. This year, when Giannis hasn't played, the Bucks are 1-5. When he has played, they're 9-8. Would his viewpoint change? I don't know..

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

what could the Knicks offer talent-wise that Milwaukee would accept that wouldn't cost all their top players?  Knicks don't have any youth or own any great picks from other teams that could possibly interest Milwaukee.

Seems to me that acquiring Giannis would gut the Knicks in the short term.

Despite moments of dominance, I don?t know why anyone give value for Towns.
