I wonder whether we could work ourselves into a Lavine to Knicks deal, if the Bulls are not that interested in RJ Barrett/Quentin Grimes. They´d be a real nice fit in Dallas imho.
Maybe you actually keep your picks for later and do something like Wood/THJ for Harris/Korkmaz straight up.
On the other hand IF Irving wants to leave the path to a Lillard (via the Lakers), Lavine (straight up) or Ayton (straight up) is pretty straight forward imho. The Mavs took a calculated risk with Irving, but his contract demands clearly work in our favour. None of the contending teams he wants to go to can pay him outright, so they have to work with us. There is enough internal pressure in places like Los Angeles, Phoenix or Chicago to complete an asset net neutral Irving exit that netsus another "star".
Everyone keeps ignoring me when I say, "Butler."
