Maybe but stein just posted that the Mavs and Hawks are talking about a Gafford deal. It’s well know the Mavs want a FRP and now don’t have a need for salary relief. What incentive do the Mavs have to make a trade for a SRP?

Mavs may want FRP as much as they want, it doesn't mean that Atlanta is willing to give it. They are a weak play-in team as it is. Gafford doesn't make them that much better that it would make sense to trade FRP for him (unless it is something heavily protected and bad). 

In any case, Atlanta took Landale from Utah for cash and I think that ends their center discussions for this season
