I would be willing to bet that the Mavs can't get better than 40+ mil in cap space, a quality young player and a decent first round pick in the summer. I'm not even sure that is on the table now or will be.
For everybody saying Mavs should hold out for the NOP pick, try putting yourself in the other teams shoes. Would anybody honestly be willing to send out that pick to acquire AD? My guess is the answer is no.
There is a difference between holding out for the NOP pick and coming to the conclusion that there might not be a suitable trade match between the Hawks and Mavs. I even said it's likely, thus understandable, that the NOP pick is off the table.
