I keep coming back to this as well (THJ + pick = _____ ), and one piece to consider is this:
The ONLY way the Mavs can trade a pick this week is to trade an unprotected 1st. They'd better get suitable value for unprotected. But, it can also serve work as a big plus in trade discussions, and make such a quest very inviting to teams with players to trade.
