It would be a lot easier to dump Green's salary than THJ's. A team like Detroit could actually defend absorbing a 23 year old with potential rather than a 32 year old who just played himself off the floor. The Mavs might even get a few 2nds in return.
I'd look at something like THJ + protected 25 1st for a S&T of GTJ. Start him at the same $16.2m that THJ would be making. That allows you to offer up to a $70/4 deal which is roughly the same annually as his current contract.
Then move Josh to Detroit for a few 2nds and re-sign DJJ with 95% of NT MLE. Or 100% if you sign the 58th pick to a rookie minimum contract to save on the cap hold.
