You can't do SnT.So, the inclusion of Green for sure helps the case of the salary being equal because without him, THJ salary declines, Holmes only goes up $800k while Siakam would get a $4M+ bump.
Mavs have 172 mil committed to 13 players next season. Lets say THJ, Green and GW (or Holmes or Maxi) are the outgoing salary. This is roughly same money as Siakam will get with max deal. Mavs will have two more MLE level deals in the summer and still possibility to resign DJJ, if they dump at least one of those deals.
These players will be under contract after the deal in the summer, assuming THJ, Green and GW are gone:
Luka,
Kyrie, Hardy, Seth (not guaranteed)
Exum,
Siakam, Omax
Lively, Powell, Holmes, Maxi
Add three min salary guys. You have Holmes and Maxi plus 2 picks to play around the edges.
As is, your leftover team listed is at $173Mish and is not a very well balanced roster. Yes, Holmes expiring, Maxi’s negative 2 years, Powell, Hardy and a couple FRPs might retrieve a decent package to go all in on. I had forgotten about the 110% trade spread as an avenue to adding salary, so there is a possibility of getting there, just very tricky as I said.
