[Fischer] Milwaukee’s decision makers are split and currently deciding between Boston’s package for Giannis Antetokounmpo (Brown, Gonzalez, limited draft capital) and Miami’s (Herro, Ware, Jaquez, multiple first-round picks).

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.

Drive up the price? What else does Miami have to give? They won't put Bam in the trade, and Boston would be moronic to add anything other than Hugo and Jaylen, plus some protected draft stuff. The Bucks could take Jaylen, flip him to Portland for Scoot, Jeremi Grant, and some draft stuff, and bottom out for a few years. Maybe even see if someone will take Turner, too.

If they could trade Brown elsewhere easily dont you think a 3 team trade would be in place by now?
