NYK: Mitchell
DAL: Bojan
LAL: Rose, Bertans, Clarkson
UTA: Westbrook, RJ Barrett, Quickley, Josh Green, 4 unprotected FRP’s including Mavs 23, 1 LAL and 2 NYK…….plus 2 protected FRP from NYK and a SRP from each of LAL and DAL
Knicks and Mavs upgrade their roster. Jazz get a haul of picks and players. Lakers get usable players while dumping Westbrook for only one FRP
I don't think LA does this. I think that Bertans contract is more negative to them than the Russ contract due to the extra year(s).
Its also too cheap for the Mavs. Not long ago we wanted to remove that protection to give us access to our picks for trading sooner. I realize the tables may have turned a bit on that, but I don't see that being big value. Other than that, we are sending out Green to get off Bertans contract. Nobody would do that straight up, and then we are getting Bojan on top of it. Too good to be true.
