Apologies, I was responding from my phone and probably didn't make myself all that clear. I believe there are a number of ways to make this team better by the TDL. Health being number one but here are some trade ideas that I think are realistic.
Notice all of them have THJ outgoing and all of them keep the Mavs under the tax line.
Trade 1
THJ, Holmes, SRP
Dinwiddie, O'Neal
Both Dinwiddie and O'Neal are expiring so Mavs clear roughly 29M next year.
Trade 2
THJ, Hardy
Fournier, Grimes
Fournier is basically an expiring this year so you get off of Tim's deal in the process.
Trade 3
THJ, Curry, SRP
PJ Wash, Richards
Trade 4
THJ, SRP
Wendell Carter Jr
Trade 5
THJ, Gwill, Holmes, SRP
Hayward, Bridges
Mavs get off ~41M next year and have a chance to build a team around Luka.
Trade 6
THJ, Curry, '27 FRP
Gafford, Avdija
In conclusion, any of these trades make the Mavs better this year and next, IMO. All of them account for THJ's scoring outgoing.
