It doesn't have to be a Mav's player though since we don't have much you'd consider less expensive and a good defender that we could afford to give up. Seems like a third team is needed here.
While I agree there could be more pieces to it adding a third team, it is also possible to look at those discussions as more basic. I think the deal that makes sense for Milwaukee is pretty simple and you will not like it. They need a guard defender to replace Beasley in the starting line-up. Portis is clearly a better player than GWill, I can't imagine Milwaukee would see Portis for him as equal value.
Mil: Green, GWill
Dal: Portis, Connaughton, Beauchamp (add second rounders)
Alternative could be GWill and Exum for Portis and Beauchamp
Not enthusiastic about any possibility. Might just end discussions.
