Bucks get: Jordan/Williams
Clippers get: Middleton/Henson

Why bucks: Eventhough they are giving up the most valuable piece in the trade, they upgrade this year. They desperately need a Center that can rebound.

Why Clippers: Get Middleton for next year to pair with Griffin

Bucks take a step back by dealing Middleton and his shooting. Don't see the Bucks having interest in this when they can find a cheaper center option that can rebound

Middleton - 47/37
Williams - 45/40

Clippers aren't adding Lou Gotti.

I don't think DeAndre is actually a good fit for Milwaukee. They need a big who at least spaces 10 feet out. Gianni's game is predicated on getting into the paint. He might be good enough that DeAndre clogging the paint is irrelevant, but maybe not.

bucks pass even if Jordan was signed for beyond this year bucks don't trade Middleton for him

Yes, both teams get better.

Clippers get Middleton who is on a 3 year cheap contract (3rd Player Option) and Henson who looks improved this year.
Khris compliments Blake spreading the floor. Clippers keep their DAJ,Lou asset alive for at least one additional year Khris.
Khris,Gallinari,Blake can be Clippers core pieces moving forward.

Bucks get the rebounder they need. Although DAJ has no offense game away from the rim, his rebounds will help to get more transition buckets while locking the post and the D boards. Lou will replace Khris' shooting for the remaining of the season (expiring)
