Bucks destined to put Myles Turner in an impossible position to succeed

I love the signing of Myles Turner by the Bucks. He's been a well above-average NBA center for a decade now, and plugging his skillset into the Bucks frontcourt next to Giannis will provide a lethal inside-outside combination. Turner shot nearly 40% from 3-point range last season and was No. 2 among all centers in total made 3-pointers. That's a great weapon for the Bucks to have in the wake of Brook Lopez' departure after seven seasons.

Like Lopez, Turner will be a pick-and-pop, rim-protecting big man. But unlike Lopez, who was flanked by numerous great playmakers in his tenure with the Bucks — Khris Middleton, Jrue Holiday, Damian Lillard — Turner won't have the luxury of a top-end roster around him.
