The advantage is that after the draft there would be another future pick available in the offering from Dallas' perspective. Ultimately Indy should be demanding NO LESS than ALL the picks Dallas has to offer, S&T J-Rich, and probably Green. I'd rather trade Timmy but...
Best way to get an Oladipo caliber of expiring player is a TDL trade, IMHO. Indiana can't assume they will get anything for him in the summer, just like Boston didn't get anything for Hayward.
Price at TDL can't be high for a half year rental. I guess a package of (expiring) salary filler, young player and FRP should be more than enough. A lot of contenders have a hard time for that salary filler. Having his bird rights would help a lot in retaining him, as you can offer him a five year contract while everyone else can go just with four years - if my memory is correct.
