Mavs send a C and an experienced wing, get a C and a less-experienced wing. This way each team gets a replacement, so there's no hole left afterwards.
Mavs - send McGee, THJ
Mavs - get Capela, one of Griffin/Johnson (or maybe Bey??)
Mavs are eating the Capela contract for ATL, in exchange for ATL doing somewhat the same for diff players from DAL. The money is very close to equal. Mavs could add a 2nd or 2, as needed. Who goes to TOR (if any) is up to ATL/TOR. And off we go.
If TOR is the intended destination for THJ, there's the option to sub in Holmes instead of THJ, and the money still matches but it's smaller salary.
That trade is too good to be true. I think most folks here would be fine with trading Timmy straight up for Capela, and probably willing to send two seconds to make it happen. That is probably our best case scenario. Atlanta does not want McGee and they are not giving up one of the young players in a deal like that.
