I think we are down to two scenarios:
1 - Neither the Mavs nor Knicks know what JB's decision will be and both are preparing their best offers and, in the Knicks case, lining up the necessary moves to facilitate the needed cap space
2 - Both the Mavs and the Knicks know JB is headed to NY and they are talking SnT. In that instance all the Mavs can really hope to recoup is whatever it would cost for the Knicks to off load Noel or Burks to another team.
In addition to whatever the JB move is I am hoping any Mavs/Goran deal is vet min and they fully intend to spend their TPMLE on a wing or big, whichever they don't get in a potential JB SnT.
I also think they have one more trade in them to attempt to clean up any potential roster logjams after JB, Goran, TPMLE are resolved.
