I accept. The Milwaukee Bucks are in a rebuilding mode and getting some cap flexibility along with draft picks helps us in the rebuilding mode. It's sad to see Monta leave, but he will help the Pacers out tremendously and they will have a good chance to compete for the championship in years to come.

I accept. I give up a lot with the 2 first rounders trading hands, but I needed to do something to give my team a lift.
Hoping that Ellis will come in and be another scoring option for me. My team has been so inconsistent lately, maybe he can settle my team out. Hinrich and Parker have been scoring off the bench for me, so I hate to give that up. I think Humphries will be an 80-81 next season. So I didnt really want to give him up. I do get Casspi a young guy who got traded to Cleveland and will get to start. I think Liggins is a good young player, but he is only signed to a one year deal. To this point I have been trying to cut salary for the offseason, but I will be moving in the opposite direction bringing Thomas aboard.

Those 1sts aren't likely to be anything special, but they are 1sts, and they are cheap compared to Monta/Tyrus.
Plus I think Tyrus brings down that side of the trade a bit with his contract and struggling a LOT IRL.
Humprhies and Hinrich are solid but expire.
Overall, it balances enough for me.
Accept

I think Milwaukee could get more for Monta, I don't see any of the pieces that are coming back to him yielding a player of the same calibre in return.
That being said I don't dislike this trade enough to reject.
I accept.

Monta is a great player, and while he might have more value, I'm looking to rebuild and start young. I'm not looking to add proven players with big contracts. I want to rebuild through the draft and maybe add a piece in Free Agency, but mostly it's about getting younger and building a core through the draft to grow together.

Trade is already through, just wanted to add - Re: Boston - Yea Monta is way better than what Milwaukee got back BUT, Tyrus is a KILLER. Guy should be rated like a 72, not 79, and he had 4 years getting paid a LOT to be trash (compared to how good he should be for a contract that big and that long).
Just my opinion, he's not a very useful player at all. He's athletic, that's all.

Pacers will need to cut a player before this deal can go through.
