: You can tell a lot about rumors by their longevity. Since the Giannis Antetokounmpo-to-Boston rumors simply won’t die, that suggests they’ve never really gone away. And why would they?

Of all the players who wind up changing teams this offseason, none will move the championship calculus more than Giannis.

There’s an obvious connection between Milwaukee and Boston, which we’ll explore in greater depth for paid subscribers behind the paywall. Subscriptions to Hoopology cost $5 a month or $50 a year. If you are interested in a joint subscription to Hoopology and Running Probably, please be patient. We will be offering those soon.
