Really hard to know Kyrie's value around the league, and at the end of the day his value is probably greater to Dallas than in any SnT.
In theory, Kyrie's highest value MIGHT be what they can get in a sign-and-trade, but it's a really hard path to get to that value.
One of the issues is that the Mavs can't select the destination unilaterally, and shop him for the highest offer. KYRIE is a huge part of the equation, and if he doesn't want to participate in the place you pick, there is no deal. It gets very tricky.
You also have the potential to create "they don't want me" issues with Kyrie as a Mav, if you are exploring SNTs (which he has to be part of). If you explore SNTs with the result that he simply signs elsewhere without you getting anything, you have totally screwed the pooch.
