THJ might be the more efficient player (not sure about this though), but Rozier provides ballhandling Tim doesn't have. Rozier checks a requirement.
The first round pick is the cost for Bertans. I'd hate losing the FRP but McDaniels balances this out. He is still a young player who can already help.
Oubre helps this season and if the Mavs decide not to re-sign him, I'd be okay with that.
McDaniels could only get better, but even if he stays at his current play, he is a long 3 point shooting forward who can handle the ball as much as Wood can. He isn't your typical Maxi 3-and-D style big, and that's a plus (although Maxi of course trumps him on defense).
This trade is a significant upgrade for the current season, and could still be a good trade for the future depending on how McDaniels develops (which I think he would be a good role player moving forward).
