[Scott41theMavs]

I think Snell is a guy I’d target with the TPE and either the Utah second or a future second. I then have even more flexibility in negotiations to pull the trigger on Curry if I see value coming back for him.

I agree, but the reason my trade isn't as stupid as it looks at first glance is that their two crappy max players (Blake the Broken and Dre the Disinterested) put them close to the tax line. Giving them Lee's expiring would save them money next year, but they have to give something back for that savings. Snell, Rose, Morris, and Kennard with their easy contracts (cf. DFS, Maxi, Curry, and Wright) would all have re-trade value for the Mavs this summer and next year. Would be interesting to see how much it would be to re-sign Wood.
