So you wouldn’t do this as the Mavs?
This draft looks stacked in the top 6. I’d rather have a guaranteed shot at one of those guys on coops timeline, than multiple stabs at guys in the late 20s in future drafts.
No I wouldn't do the trade if we include any draft capital. Atlanta doesn't have any leverage in the situation. They can't do anything with their expiring contracts once the deadline passes. Nobody actually wants to go to Atlanta, but AD does so he can get paid. We can't afford to give up a future number 1 for any player. I do not believe the Mavs will entertain any trades where we send out draft picks.
