I said as much in a previous post.

I think two things are happening here:
1) People are failing to value JB as highly as he should be (maybe because Mavs fans have been so used to assuming we have no assets others want).
2) How much leverage Nico has in this situation. Nico can literally just sign JB this summer (I don't think JB would do the Mavs wrong and just walk, especially if the contract is slightly better than others can offer) and then trade him later. OR Nico can trade JB to any number of teams.
I'm not sure anyone has advocated just a pick.
Pick + Salary Dump + a player in return. That would be the starting point.
