Absurd trade offer from Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Warriors puts Celtics legend in big trouble: “They had inside information”

The rumors that Giannis Antetokounmpo could join the Golden State Warriors could be revived. Well, it's not really exciting at the moment. The Greek Freak has settled in well in Milwaukee and is chasing a championship alongside Damian Lillard. But it's less about him than the Warriors' efforts to extend Stephen Curry's stay. After losing Klay, the Bay's championship hopes are dim. And the solution to his stay could actually lie in Antetokounmpo.

Paul Pierce put on his GM hat to find a solution for the struggling Warriors. His accomplice Kevin Garnett expected him to suggest a suitable place for the boss to move to so he could remain competitive. However, the truth took a turn that surprised Kevin Garnett. Why? Because it “randomly”.

“I mean, the only way I see Golden State getting back to where they need to be is if they find a way to get Giannis there,” said the former Celtics on Ticket and The Truth.

Garnett was surprised at first. He couldn't understand why his former teammate would suggest a reverse transfer. But then he remembered. Months before Lillard moved to Milwaukee, Pierce made a similar prediction. It was correct down to the smallest detail, including the fact that Jrue Holiday was the victim. Therefore, KG suspected that Pierce knew something the NBA world still doesn't.

“You have inside information. That's all. Yes, you do. You have that sneaky look on your face, I get it in the back of my mind, ha, ha, ha. I know you. That's what you look like when you're at that surprise birthday thing. You know what I mean?” said Garnett.

As for their contracts, Steph Curry has two years left with the Warriors. If he doesn't sign a one-year extension in the coming weeks, he'll be on track to become a free agent in the 2026-27 season. On the other hand, Antetokounmpo signed a 3-year extension worth $175 million last year that keeps him in Milwaukee through 2027-28. However, the final year remains a player option.

Therefore, the only way for the Greek Freak to join the Bays is to forego his final season and sign with the franchise. But is there even a chance he'll sign?

Giannis Antetokounmpo has not ruled out a move from Milwaukee

Antetokounmpo is very similar to Stephen Curry in his loyal ideologies. He has never considered a transfer away from Milwaukee. The reason for this is because he saw a shared desire for triumph within the franchise. But in any case, Antetokounmpo has openly admitted that he would change teams if that goal took a back seat.

On the New York Times' “48 Minutes,” the two-time MVP opened up about his thought process. As the leader of the pack, his priority is to have a team, front office and organization ready to compete for the Larry O'Brien trophy. In the event that the Bucks fall off that stool, “as soon as I feel like people aren't as committed as I am to getting that golden thing in the back, I'm not,” Giannis Antetokounmpo said during the interview.

Once you get a taste of what it feels like to be a champion, nothing else will do. The Greek Freak expressed the same sentiments as Curry, who never wants to be a “bottom-up.” The way things are set up, there's a chance one or the other will decide to waver. The deciding factor will be how the organization positions itself over the next two years.
