Multiple websites say he is one of the highest paid GMs but made less than Nico (!) and made $4.5M/year. I think he's worth a far bigger number than that. He is the gold standard. Why not aim for the best?
What are the rules in terms of a lateral move like that? Do the Mavs need permission to interview him? Do they have to wait for his current contract to expire? How long is that contract? If they don't have to wait, would stealing him involve draft capital compensation? What amount of money would it take for you to leave a decade long build, right after the first championship payoff when it looks like there are more rings on the way and you still have ammo in your war chest?
