Mavs probably need to throw in all available seconds or a pick swap but I think in hindsight the Blazers wouldn't have matched the Mavs offer last summer. Would be happy to cash in on his remaining value.
Would clear space for DJJs contract and offer the opportunity to use Green/Hardy/1sts to search for another scorer/creator.
This for sure.
Thybulle's defense is top 5 for a guard in the league. He also shouldn't cost an arm and a leg.
Selling high on Green by getting a first for him, and then going and getting Thybulle for THJ gives us the cap needed for DJJ and we replace Green's contract with Thybulle.
The rotation is largely similar except Green is replaced with a worse shooter but much better defender.
I'd then go shopping with Maxi+Hardy+Powell+ our 3 FRPs to get a strong bench scorer.
