THOUGHTS ON POTENTIAL SWAP/TRADE FRAMEWORK???

Bucks Mindset:

• Shake their roster up after 1st round exit

• Replace aging star Middleton, with solid players Brooks and Kennard

• New blood on the roster hopefully improves their bench for playoffs

• Options for improvement are limited due to little draft capital resource

Grizzles Mindset:

• Addition of Middleton helps take pressure off of Morant, Bane, and Jackson Jr in late-game situations

• Get value out of Brooks, who could walk for nothing

• Make a somewhat risky all-in move, given Middleton's injury history

• Don't sacrifice any draft capital or young talent; it gives the flexibility to make more trades

Middleton & Brooks also get long-term deals, which are not guaranteed due to their respective injury history and on-court antic problems

New Lineups:

BUCKS:

1. Holiday

2. Kennard/Connaughton/Allen (Not sure which one would start)

3. Brooks

4. Antetokounmpo

5. Lopez

Grizzles:

1. Morant

2. Bane

3. Middleton

4. Jackson Jr.

5. Adams/Clarke
