Both great players, but seem to be caught in between positions. Neither can really guard 4's. Of course it has yet to be seen if they can really play together. If not, could the Celtics and Bucks make a win win trade, where the Celtics could swoop in and grab one of these guys?

If im Milwaukee i lean more towards keeping the Greek Freak. More defensive versatility, more experience, more physical gifts, more edge. So in the unlikely scenario the Bucks dangle Parker in a trade, what could the Celtics offer?

Would you do Parker and Vasquez for Crowder, Sullinger, Turner, Brooklyn 1st, and our first? Probably need more draft picks thrown in for good measure.

Think of that Bucks team..
CarterWilliams/ Turner
Middleton/ Mayo
GreekFreak/ Crowder
Henson/ Sullinger
Monroe/ Plumlee

Not to mention the Celtics get the scorer theyve been yearning for since Pierce left..

Just a randon thought..

I doubt they would trade Parker. He has a higher ceiling than Giannis, I don't think they can trade him now because he wouldn't pass a physical, and even if he recovers it would take a while for teams to trust that the Bucks aren't hiding something if they're shopping a #2 overall pick.

I don't think there's any possible deal for Parker that doesn't start with Smart

Perks-
did you happen to think about your comments before you posted them?  Parker hasn't played a game in the NBA and he's a "great" player?  Why would the Bucks waste a second thinking about trading a lottery pick before he plays a game?

And is Giannis a "great" player now?  He is young and talented but is he truly great?

Parker played 25 games last year.

If you're gonna make an insulting post, at least get your facts right

Pretty sure the Bucks will give it a few years to see if the greek freek and Jabari will work out. Both are young, talented, and have yet to reach their full potential. There's no incentive to trade them now. If either of them get traded, it probably won't be for another 3-4 years, and if the Bucks do trade Jabari it won't be for that deal. Bucks aren't giving up a potential star for our role players/picks. Thats a severe win-lose deal in the Celtics favor.

Durant and Westbrook aren't exactly a perfect match but OKC is still one of the best teams in the league with the two of them leading the way.

Giannis and Jabari fit very well together in my opinion

Their GM was actually talking about Giannis trying out playing the center position

Then obviously the bucks are gonna trade both of them to the Celtics for James Young. Plain and simple.

Then they'd be getting a good deal, given that Young is a 20 year-old Kobe  ;)

I see your argument, but it does seem a tad premature to draw many conclusions about someone who has played only 25 nba games in his life.

I'm interested in this bucks team and how it's going to work
As they have a lot of length
And offensively they each require the ball to score
So they will need to share a lot of touches between that starting 5

That said bucks wouldn't trade Parker a recent no 2 pick and vasquez for what we're offering
The risk is too much
As they already know what they got in Parker as a 3 that is creative to get his own shot

Even if the don't mesh, you better believe that the Bucks are going to try to make it work for at least a season or two before throwing in the towel.  So I don't see either player being on the market anytime soon.

In their short time together they seemed dynamic. It is likely they will be one of the best teams in the NBA in 3 years. Williams, Middleton, Parker, Antetokounmpo, and Monroe should be special if they can keep everyone signed.

How are they great players?  They are great prospects there is a big difference, neither of them is going to knock Jordan off Basketball Mount Rushmore anytime soon.   I think "great" is over used by our society and your post is a prime example.

If they do not work out one will be moved.   It is that plain and simple.
