Agree, unfortunately it seems like the market for Monroe hasn't been high as they expected, and hes on an favorable contract when comparing what others players inferior to him will be getting the max or more.
You can't get more than max. That's why it is called 'max'.

I'm really not sold on Parker. He looked so unaware and normal today against the Bucks. 33 mins, 1-6, 4 rebs, 0 assists, 0 steals, 4 fouls.

Jeff Green looks like his ceiling to me.

Hopefully we can land Parker for a Jeff Green price tag, like Rozier and a 1st rounder.

I like Moose for Lee, Sully and Dallas 2016 pick.

After Giannis, the player I'd want most from that Bucks team is Parker. He's still practically a rookie. I don't know why so many on this board have given up on him. Well, hopefully the Bucks GM thinks the same as most of you guys do. Would AB+Sully+Dallas 2016 1st+Boston future 1st+2 2nd rounders do?

A tweener who can't defend either forward position and doesn't shoot well so far in the NBA.  I don't like players with that skill set.

Clearly, the pieces to the Bucks’ puzzle aren’t fitting. Several league officials said they would be surprised if the Bucks didn't make a major trade.

“From what I’m hearing is they (the Bucks) are willing to trade anybody not named Parker, Antetokounmpo or Middleton,’’ an NBA executive said. “I even heard they'd listen (to offers) for Parker and Middleton, but it would have to be some crazy offer.

"They want to do something; they know they have to do something. That group they have isn’t working.’’

Is it me or is the entire basketball world completely overrating Jason Kidd as a coach?

I really wouldn't be interested in any player other than Giannis. 1. Because he's Greek (like me) and 2. Because he has insane skills and potential. That being said, MIL would have to be be incredibly stupid to trade him away. I don't rate Parker very much nor Monroe.

MCW and J.Parker are holding back Giannis' development.

Giannis would be playing much better on a team with superior floor spacing.

Monroe has the Jeff Green motor .  All the skill in the world ......but only turns it on sporadically .

Sully plays with more energy on a consistent basis ...even tho he is less gifted  than Monroe

Parker has left me ...meh ....unimpressed since his Duke departure......not sure if he will climb the hill after the injury .  He seems lost ...not sure he has " the drive " to susceed.

Agreed. MIL is Giannis' team now. They should trade Parker and try to get some shooting back.

How can you say this?  Have you followed Monroe at all??  He is on of the most consistent double double producers in the league in the last several years!!  He is very consistent with those numbers.

Jeff Green was VERY INCONSISTENT!!!  And still is for that matter.

In terms of ability to score,, rebounding, and lack of defense, he's basically close to the same value as a slightly younger David Lee and probably as good of a fit on the Celtics under Stevens.

I don't see Greg Monroe as much of an upgrade over our other power forwards.

Offensively, he would be an upgrade over our present C.   He is a better shooter at .52% over the .42% of Sully.   He is a slightly better rebounder and he is a decent FT shooter.  Big time upgrade in PER.

Defensively, is what scares me about him.

but if we got him, he would be our C.
