Oh, okay. And yes, I wouldn't be surprised if the teams are still negotiating at the margins.
But I don't think the big pieces are a sticking point for either side, as theorized. Both GD and DP have flaws in their desirability, but both have a useful place to the acquiring team as well.
Also, since it's a 3-way and MIA is getting the big prize, they may be involved. The Lowry deal really isn't set in stone.
There are also cap issues to consider all around. And the teams may be trying to find a structure/details that will maximize potential TPE's to take away from the deal. And the fact that the Mavs are sitting on a 10.9M TPE could come into play in re to either TOR or MIA.
