BRUNSON BURNER: to NYK for 4yrs/$104M (no SnT) | NYK docked 2025 2nd for tampering

Yep, which is why I said in my personal analysis that I don't think the Mavs made a catastrophic failure in this. I think it is FAR MORE likely he gets money-whipped to stay in DAL than it is that he walks. 

And honestly, with what he showed in the games without Luka (averaging 30+ in the PLAYOFFS as THE GUY), they will have no problem flipping his contract even at its exorbitant level. 

Point being, if JB is WORTH the contract he signed then the Mavs did not make a mistake, because they will be able to flip easy enough when they want to.

Not catastrophic if he signs with Dallas, but still if we could have gotten him for 4/55 and end up having to go 4/90+ that is a huge difference to our situation, and his trade value.
