Playing around with different rumors and the trade machine, if Dallas wants to move McGee for another center my ideal target would be Noel. A straight up McGee-Noel swap doesn’t work. However, turning two rumored deals into 3-team trades would allow the McGee-Noel swap to happen.
DAL: Reddish/Quickley/Noel
DET: McGee/second round compensation
NYK: Bullock
OR
DAL: LeVert/Noel
CLE: THJ
DET: McGee/second round compensation
Same concept applies for Holmes (who likely won’t cost any second round picks because Stein reports he's a buyout candidate). Remove Quickley and if Dallas gets their 2023 pick back, would they go after Bog, or a different target?
