It doesn't mean Dallas gets Atlanta's (now) seven available seconds. Some could be used as outgoing to help Dallas send out salary to a third team.
One thing to note. The agent was extremely vocal and aggressive, which tells me he thinks he has an extension in his back pocket somewhere. He's gone radio silent on AD lately. Not sure that means anything, but the two teams in play when he was being aggressive were Atlanta and Toronto.
I believe both Atlanta trades (Trae and now this last one) are a set up to something bigger. I hope it involves the Mavs somehow. Preferably AD to Atlanta. But we could still see Gafford and/or Naji going that way also.
