Right. If this was an auction for the last 1-2 years of his current contract and then maybe the chance to sign him at around Kleber money for his last contract, that would be one thing.
In reality, Green wants another BIG deal after this one, GS has already decided they don't want any part of that (for good, informed reasons) and that's why we're even talking about this. Both sides are looking around for a solution before things get ugly. Green is looking for a team willing to make a significant and long investment in him and GS is hoping that team will be willing to pay a trade price worthy of a player like that.
As much as I'd like to see him with Luka now, in like three weeks, this just doesn't fit the Mavs' situation from a timeline perspective.
