But NY FO and ownership would be publicly lynched in the streets of NY if Mavs somehow end up with a top5 pick next year. That's why they will not do it. It is like Phoenix and Ayton in 2018 draft. Drafting him was safe and everyone still has a job despite Luka near MVP play. Everybody would be fired if they drafted Luka and Luka turned out average or a bust.Ya, I don't believe NY is in the mood to trade with us for a while for the reasons you stated. Even if it is a new management group making the decisions.
One other thing, if we make the pick this year then trade it to them for our 2021, does that move the 2023 pick up to the 2021 spot? Don't know the wording on how the picks are conveyed. That might be a quick way to get those picks conveyed and us back into the draft. Of course, if it makes sense.

We´d have to bleed hard to create max capspace this summer. Only AD would be worth the trouble imho.How amazing would it be to get AD this offseason. Puts LaL in the toilet and us in the finals.
