For sure we don't know how much Grant and Detroit really love eachother in a sense that they want to continue their story. Not all decisions are rational. But from rational perspective, Detroit is not near contending at all, probably still several years away. This season is clearly showing it. So a player like Grant doesn't make a lot of sense and he is expiring next season. They might lose him for nothing. From Grant perspective he really got what he wanted from Detroit. He showed he is more than a 3-D DFS/Maxi type player we thought he was before Detroit. He raised his value and is probably looking at near max money for his next contract. He is not a number one option, but can probably be a great number 2 or 3 on a good team. I think Tobias Harris is a nice comparison. Rational move for him is to go to contender and compete. From rational perspective moving him makes sense for both Detroit and him, imho. I could also imagine that Detroit would listen where Grant wants to go, so convincing him that this is Dallas would also be nice.
