First playoff game overreaction. Mavs need additional scoring that is not a total liability on defense. So how about Malcolm Brogdon? A good two-way player. Not elite defender or offensive player but can create for himself and others. He could be a perfect 6th man for this team, bringing stability to the bench unit, scoring punch from the bench and a bunch of playoff experience. Since he is a decent defender, he could also finish games. THJ and Green for Brogdon (with draft assets attached) - involve third team if needed. Mavs save 6 mil of salary. Resign DJJ and you have Brogdon, Exum and DJJ who can play remaining PG, SG and SF minutes that Luka and Kyrie leave on the table.
Portland didn't want to trade him at TDL but I don't see much point for them to keep him.
