Portland said they would match, so I expect they will without some compensation. Dumb question: is it within the rules to just have a gentleman’s agreement where Portland agrees not to match, so the transaction is logged as an RFA signing rather than a sign and trade, and in return the Mavs route a second rounder to Portland for $1 as a separate transaction? Or, maybe the Mavs could also pay for their vending for a year?
