We arent picking up Green's option at 4.7mil next year if we bring in another vet wing and hes DNPCD all season. Could take a nice flier on someone at #35 and give him the Ty Terry deal of 4yr 6 million which becomes extremely valuable if it hits but not a big deal to waive if it doesn't.
I feel sending Green out for the 35 pick would be selling low on Green. I have more confidence that Green can be a useful rotation player than whoever we might get at 35. I also think Green will likely be farther along on the development curve than that pick meaning if we are having a hard time finding Green minutes it will be even harder for a rookie. Also, if we are to give 35 the Terry deal (or any deal more than 2 years so we can have bird rights and make them restricted) we would have to eat significantly into the tax MLE. That will make it less likely we get a vet wing that would eat all of the minutes. I don't mind sending Green out if it nets us a good player, but this kind of trade only makes sense if the Mavs have given up on Green.
