Feels like we talk about him a lot, but this time I think he's actually kind of a dark horse trade target here. As others have said, the most likely thing is probably for Dallas just to scramble around to keep the group together, bringing back DJJ. But, if they DO make a big swing. I'd look at a guy like that way before I'd look at LeBron, Paul George, etc. The high salary makes it tough, but he checks the right boxes, isn't in a good situation, is very likely to be moved, and is now probably looking at Dallas as a more favorable destination than he has in the past. Just saying, he's a guy I'll be keeping my eye on (not to be taken as a prediction).
I'm also kinda/sorta wondering what it might take to get Klay Thompson here. I thought about him in Dallas for a while earlier today and warmed up to the idea much more than I expected. I just don't know what avenues/mechanisms are available to get it done.
Hunter...I like. He's one of those guys who's overrated by everyone but his own fans, I think, and I don't think he'd be an improvement over DJJ or even Green, really, but another interesting name to throw into the mix. Still in "interesting potential" mode, and you'd be buying low since he's coming off of a disappointing stretch of his career. Then again, so was PJ.
