saw this posted on reddit.
so not sure if this was talked about on this forum.
Bucks owner Marc Lasry: "We hope it would be players like Anthony Davis and others who want to come to Milwaukee"
Quote:
“I saw that report, and I think it’s great,” Bucks co-owner Marc Lasry told Sporting News near the Barclays Center court after his team shredded a depleted Nets club in Brooklyn. “It’s a little bit of what we want. We want players to come and play in Milwaukee. And part of it is, when you’re winning and you’re setting a standard for excellence, people see that. People want to win.
“It doesn’t make a difference if you’re in Milwaukee, New York or LA. The whole goal is winning. So we hope it would be players like Anthony Davis and others who want to come to Milwaukee.”
for comparison Magic was fined $50k last year for this.
Quote:
"I'm just happy he's starting in the All-Star Game because he deserves that," Johnson told ESPN in a story published last week. "And he's going to be like an MVP, a champion, this dude he's going to put Milwaukee on the map. And I think he's going to bring them a championship one day."

The NBA doesn't investigate unless someone files a complaint right? So that means the Bucks owner complained about Magic and then turns around and makes a comment like this. What a crock of (bleep) . _________________ It was reminiscent of one of those Most Interesting Man in the World advertisements: "I don't always shoot 6-for-28 from the field, but when I do, I become the youngest player in league history to score 28,000 career points."
Only way to serve this right is the Greek Freak force his way to Lakers. Team like Bucks, Pacers, Jazz, Pelicans don’t deserve any franchise player on their teams.
Do you have a link or quote supporting your statement?
Most of those things go unreported, especially if there aren’t media asking about it. The Lakers are always going to have someone asking. I believe they would have been fined. The league plays this stuff by protocol,

When the NBA fines a player, coach or owner, they issue a press release and it's reported
Normally I consider most of the stuff on LG to be homerism with no basis however when you compare what magic was fined for, that buck quote is on par and I'll be really disappointed if they are not fined
