When Giannis Antetokounmpo was sidelined by a calf injury, Damian Lillard had his highest usage rate of the season. The game with his second-highest came after Antetokounmpo had been ejected. But the side-by-side fit remains clunky at times. “We’re still learning each other,” Lillard told ESPN last week. “If it would’ve been flipped and him coming to Portland to play with me, I would’ve already been comfortable because I’ve been here.

Jrue Holiday reminded the Bucks of what they were missing when his new team, the Boston Celtics, hosted Milwaukee on Wednesday and he held Antetokounmpo to 2-of-7 shooting as his primary defender despite giving up 7 inches of height. “You don’t feel them in the same way anymore,” a rival Eastern Conference executive said. “The head of the snake is gone.”

(The Heat isn’t interested in trading Herro for LaVine.)

Fans often dismiss the human element of these transactions, justifying it by the extraordinary salaries that so many of them command. But all the money in the world couldn’t take the initial sting away for Conley. “You can make a lot of money, but if you get punched in the face, you’re still like, ‘Oh my God, that hurt,’ ” he said. “Yeah, I’ll be fine. But at this moment, it’s hurting me. So let me feel this for a second here and then move on.”
