This gets the Mavs below the apron to sign Dragic. This also frees up future cap while accumulating picks to trade for a bigger fish. Nets get a solid replacement for Kyrie who has no trade value after saying he's going to LA. LA gets Kyrie this year. When your core is in their mid to late 30's, simply waiting a year for Kyrie isn't beneficial. Pistons finally get THJ, reuniting him with his dad -- the theme of the summer.
Remover all the picks from the Mavs equation and it´s a more realistic trade. Still a massive win for us. I´d do that in a heartbeat, but I also know Cuban would turn it down.
