Brockman to the Bucks?

I like Brockman a lot, but am not totally opposed to this. Depending on what we get in return of course. With our newfound depth in the front court Brockness is going to be buried on the bench. Better for us and him if he can go somewhere where he's going to get real PT. I'd be okay with CDR, Delfino has been mentioned as well.
Wow, if this goes through, I'll definitely miss Brockman. I feel like he was great for this team in practice and in the locker room. It would be a better situation for him, however. Realistically there is no room for gametime minutes for Brockman, and if he can get more playing time elsewhere, good for him. Unfortunately, I can't cheer for his team if he goes to the Bucks. I can't stand Jennings and I can't help but to root against him.
If he goes elsewhere because of more playing time, or guaranteed money, go for it! Brocks future here was bleak. There is no room for him, as much as I hate to say it. He has to do what is best for him, and his career. If he gets a chance to play consistently, which he won't here, and that turns into 3 yr guaranteed contract a year from now, great for him. Playing here won't help him financially down the road. He won't get a chance to play with any kind of regularity. I would be sad to see him go, but good for him.
No they couldn't. They used their full MLE and Brockman is a RFA. So any vet min. salary is likely matched, surpassed or the QO Brockman has > than the vet min for a 2nd year player.
Therefore the sign and trade is necesary. I'd imagine something like a 2nd rounder next year or Darington Hobson, or CDR or Delfino being the asking price. I could see any of those peices being moved for Brockman. The Bucks loaded up their wings this off-season and so moving an actual player frees up a roster spot to acquire Brockman who likely fills more a role for their roster than one of those players.
My guess is CDR for a sign and trade Brockman is what goes down.
Ooh. I like that possibility. 6'6" wing guy, decent length, good court vision, strong rebounder, pretty good percentage from 3 (.361). I get the feeling that Hobson is a guy (like Donte, but even more so) can be molded into a defense-first player. Could potentially become a lockdown perimeter defender with good outside shooting and court vision. We used to have a guy like that once...
