I offer Atlanta Maxi and Bullock for Collins and #15. They get a cheaper PF and unload A LOT of long-term money.
The Mavs could really do damage with #10 and #15 either in trade or picking Hendricks/Dick/Wallace and Lively.
I am not sure what Collins market is, but that is awfully light for not even immediate cap relief. Could a team with Cap room take Collins in for immediate cap room? Hawks thought they had a deal with the Suns at the deadline before the KD trade. I believe that was expiring with Crowder being one and the Suns first round pick. I think that is what the package they will be looking at. #10 is too much obviously but I don't think they would move their first in a package to dump him.
Hollinger had an article that I skimmed this morning how a lot of teams are stuck and this could impact a lot of the moves this summer. Dallas and ATL were two teams he mentioned.
