There are 9 other teams that are in tax at this moment. BOS, NY, Dal, Min, LAL, Den, Tor, Hou and Orl.
I don't have time or desire to explore it in detail (because eventually the Mavs will answer it for us), but 10 teams are over the tax line. We focus on BKN as the easy-to-see solution, but all teams under the tax line by a few million are potentially able to provide Mavs with a swap in which the Mavs end up with one less player and a bit less salary.
