Jrue Holiday

Yes. If the trade fell through, you don't want it out there you were basically shopping him. If they've have told him 24 hours before, the rumor would have been known by everyone in the NBA within 10 minutes. Maybe not from Jrue, but from his agent.

Life just isn't fair.  Always going to be sad about the Jrue Holiday trade, but always going to be thankful I got to cheer for,  and learn more about that young man because he was a Milwaukee Buck.  I definitely don't like the team he's on now,  but I will always be a Jrue Holiday fan.

The play where stripped the ball from booker and threw an alley pop to Giannis is a top 5 all time play for the Bucks.

It might be number 1 all-time. That would be a fun topic. I don't remember 1971, so I can't say anything about those plays, but a top 5-10 list would include.

1. The Valley-Oop - Holiday to Giannis

2. The Giannis block against Ayton in the Finals.

3. Giannis hitting the FT to give him 50 points in Game 6 of the Finals (which symbolized the whole game).

4. Ray Allen going for 41 in Game 6 of the 2001 ECFs.

5. Moncrief's game winner at the buzzer against the Sixers in the 1982 playoffs (I think that was the only game Philly lost in the playoffs that year)

6. Middleton going for 40 in Game 4 of the 2021 Finals

7. Middleton's buzzer beater in the 2021 Heat series - Game 1.

8. Jrue blocking Marcus Smart to win Game 5 in Boston last year.

9. Giannis tackles Mike Dunleavy - 2015 playoffs during a blowout.

Kareem's sky hook with 2 seconds left in game 6 of the 1974 finals is certainly up there.
