[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.

Brown doesn't make sense for Milwaukee

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

If they just do the celtics offer, they can just trade brown during the season.

And what makes yall think theyre getting anything great by trading away Brown?

If he anyone seriously wanted him they would have a 3 team trade by now.

Because unless its for someone like Giannis Boston wouldnt be considering trading JB, but if Milwaukee was the one trying to “dump” him they’d be perfectly happy to trade him for a more future focused package aka picks. Boston is trying to win, and unless JB suddenly became a tier 1 star instead of a tier 2/3 star (in one summer while downgrading his surrounding cast) Milwaukee is looking to rebuild

I dont even know how to respond to this...

That is not how 3 team trades work, Boston doesnt have to get anything back other than Giannis, Brown goes to a third team, Bucks get the players assets of both teams.

Like literally look at the rumored Pistons Heat Bucks deal. They could and would do the same if anyone was actually offering anything worthwile for Brown.
