One thing that I'm surprised never comes up in these chats is the idea of a swap on the NOP pick this year paired with a future unprotected/lightly protected pick. Atlanta still gets a high pick this year which could still be as high as the second pick and the Mavs now have really great odds of jumping up into the top 4. Feels like a decent compromise but it never seems to come up as an option anywhere (unless I missed something, haven't caught up on this thread in a while).
KP/Kennard/Risacher/NOP swap/2027 or future pick seems like it would be a fantastic haul to me without getting the NOP pick outright.
