He´d opt out of a 49M contract and then you need Ballmer to play ball and accept an offer of THJ, Kleber and Green, cause nothing else gets you to the salary PG13 would expect. I find such a scenario highly unlikely, when good teams like the Clippers, Sixers or Magic can just offer him that money outright.

I mean he is 34 now and his opting out means that he wants to “win” more than “earn”. If he becomes a free agent, he would probably do it to pair with better players and that’s why I think Dallas (though very slim chance all these happen) might be his destination. Both parties would benefit from the unison.
