2023 DRAFT: Mavs take Lively, OMP, sign Mike Miles to 2-way, sign Jordan Walker

[DallasMaverick]

I just don't think Dallas has the right assets or right team to make that trade now.  Plus, I think Detroit needs to start winning.

But this trade deadline???   I could see a scenario where Bojan tells Detroit he likes being in Detroit but will prioritize playing for a contender when his contract ends next season.   So maybe then you can do a Bertans and future first for him so Detroit captures some value for him.   This would be based on that Dallas has filled their center and PF holes this offseason, and still had assets available for this type of trade.

No future first for Bojan.  Next season, Bertans becomes a positive trade asset.  No need to attach anything.
