Brad Stevens loses Giannis sweep stakes

Miami Heat Receive:

Milwaukee Bucks Receive:

Draft Compensation

To secure Antetokounmpo, Miami parted with a heavy haul of future draft picks and swaps: [1]

Brown and 2 first round picks offered for Giannis. Lost to Heat “They were unwilling to put in young players like Hugo Gonzalez and Baylor Scheierman or adding additional first-round picks or pick swaps,” Charania said on Get Up on Monday. “The Bucks wanted some combination of maybe a young player or two. Maybe additional draft capital. The Celtics were not willing to do that.”

Biggest loser and winner in Giannis trade?

Is Brad Stevens plan to move Brown? Why?

MONEY

Brian Windhorse - 5 – 1 0 teams that could make a trade for Jaylen Brown  "They made a very strong offer, but they were not willing to put their entire team in. They were not willing to put other pieces in, because on the other side of this trade, they had to have a team. Now, what I expect to happen is a bidding war for Jaylen Brown. In the most recent days, teams have been preparing for this eventuality. That it wouldn't be the Boston Celtics who won the Giannis sweepstakes, and there would be a Jaylen Brown market. We're now going to watch that. I think it’ll take time to play out, but if there's a draft pick involved, that could happen today."

Can the Celtics create a bidding war and actually win a Jaylen Brown trade?

Should Brown go?

"The noise is getting louder that Trey Murphy is available and he will have a long list of suitors beyond Boston," wrote Robb. "It’s hard to imagine the Celtics winning that bidding without putting Brown or Derrick White on the table but the Celtics would certainly be looking for more in return. What the Pelicans have to offer alongside him is guys with big question marks (Zion Williamson, Dejounte Murray) or role guys with limited upside (Herbert Jones, Saddiq Bey, Yves Missi)."

Does Jaylen Brown have to go? "The Celtics and Jaylen Brown will have hard conversations moving forward about the fallout from a trade that didn't happen," ESPN's Shams Charania said on Get Up. "I've had a few people tell me last night, you've got to get a deal done if you're the Celtics."

”Somewhat grateful, because I get to see some negativity that I didn’t want. But that just gives more fuel to the fire,” Brown said on his Twitch stream on Sunday while training with Olympic sprinter Noah Lyles. “I see some comments, or takes, that I didn’t even care to see, but it just gives me more fuel to the fire. “To all the people who have doubted me, that want me to do this or want me gone, you’re turning me into a monster.”
