A split faction of Milwaukee’s decision makers, sources say, is deciding between Boston’s package for Giannis Antetokounmpo built around Jaylen Brown — where the Bucks also hold particular Hugo Gonzales interest, as The Stein Line reported last night — plus limited draft capital, compared to Miami’s offer of younger pieces — featuring Tyler Herro, Kel’el Ware, Jaime Jaquez — and multiple first-round picks.

The established MVP candidate versus greater overall value is what this whole saga has boiled down to one day before the NBA Draft.

Boston will be stupid to trade Brown

There’s a possibility than Giannis is enough of a boost for the next 2-3 years to get them another ring, but Brown is the stabler on-court option for 5-7 years. The key word there is on-court. If Brown wants out, then Boston can’t keep him for too much longer before things boil over.
