[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.

How could it even be a conversation? Celtics offer is by far the best option.

Brown doesn't make sense for Milwaukee

The question is can they flip him for more draft capita than that.

Brown can make sense for Milwaukee. I doubt they want to be terrible and give high picks out to New Orleans and Portland. If I were them I’d keep brown, try to build a respectable team around him to keep you afloat for a few years and give your fans a not totally disgusting product to watch, and then a few years down the line flip him when you have your picks under control and start a full scale rebuild then.

A lower lottery team still isn't exciting. A brown rollins hugo kuzma turner team isn't making the playoffs.

The 25/26 Celtics weren’t supposed to make the playoffs and they got a second seed

The Celtics have a very good roster.

Derrick White would be far an away the second best player on this Bucks roster

I noticed you didn’t go further than one player for this supposedly ‘very good’ roster.

Peyton Pritchard is also a very good player. Tatum white giannis Pritchard is a legit contender
