The two rumors I've seen today are
1) Khris Middleton http://nesn.com/2016/06/nba-trade-ru...al-with-bucks/
and
2) Nerlens Noel https://fansided.com/2016/06/21/nba-...-nerlens-noel/

The Middleton trade is supposedly for #3 and "a contract" and the Noel trade doesn't really have any specifics... I'm assuming that it isn't for 3. I mean, I like Noel, but he isn't worth the 3rd pick, imo.

What would be amazing is if both trades happened. Something like 3 and Amir for Middleton (although I doubt the Bucks would take that) and AB and 16 for Noel. As much as I love AB and want to keep him a small ball lineup of Smart, IT4, Middleton, Crowder and Noel sounds pretty awesome. I won't go as far as to call it a poor man's Golden State, but I do love the versatility it would provide.
I believe I would rather have Middleton than Noel to be honest. Noel is younger but Middleton is already proven.

I too wouldn't care to let AB go. He's been a solid player for a while but he's reached his peak/prime already. He's been consistent though.

But, if we can get players we need to take us over the hump then so be it. AB is just so solid on both ends of the floor though. It's hard to find two-way players like him anymore.
