I don't think that's a good trade for Milwaukee or Toronto.
From Milwaukee's perspective Bogut is the best piece they have right now, and to trade him away for Bargs+Jack+Raef would be a horrendous move. They just signed Mo Williams to a long term deal, and Ramon Sessions at the end of this season was simply amazing when Williams went down with an injury, so Jack is a 3rd string PG on that roster. And to swap Villanueva for another soft, 3pt shooting PF makes no sense, and Raef's expiring doesn't help them much at all unless they can unload one of their more ridiculous contracts (Gadzuric/Simmons/Redd).
Then Toronto gives up a PG who perfectly fits their style, and a former #1 overall pick for a back up/ok starting Center, a backup tweener forward, and a pick thats not even in the top 10 of the draft? Yes they are looking for a tough defensive center and a second scoring option to help lighten the load on Bosh, but there are options in free agency for the big man, and Outlaw isn't a 2nd scoring option on a team that wants to go anywhere in the playoffs.
The Blazers come out way to far ahead for this to be even remotely realistic.
