The Bucks really need shooters around Giannis. Lopez has been good for them but he's getting older and his 3PT shot has declined. KP(in theory) should be a perfect fit for them, as would THJ. The Mavs, OTOH, would get a guy who can be your #2 in the playoffs.
So my issue is you can't really control what THJ does. It might need to be KP + something else, ie a player you control for Middleton + Lopez. Mavs have other pieces they can throw in there. If you did do Middleton + Lopez your starting 5 would be:
Luka
THJ
Middleton
DFS or FA big wing
Lopez
I think it really comes down to how Bucks value KP as being the central piece and then how they view other pieces (Maxi, Brunson, Rich being a few options).
