DAL OFFSEASON: Trade & FA | Mavs "mostly done...but you never know."

[DanSchwartzgan]

 
As @"DanSchwartzman" mentioned. Rubio to the Clippers makes a lot of sense. They desperately need a floor general to run the offense. Rubio is one of the best in the league and they have enough scoring to compensate for his lack of shooting/inside scoring.

There is never enough shooting in the modern NBA so Shamet is a player that every single team would like to have. He is probably one of the few remaining assets that the Clippers might be willing to give up.

Let's take 10 out of the conversation for a moment.  For Rubio to end up in LAC, they have to send out a significant contract.  Maybe we are giving up 18 to do Wright for Beverley and swapping DFS for Shamet.  10 logically goes to OKC.

So:

Paul to Suns
D. Wright/Oubre/DFS to OKC
Rubio to LAC 
Beverley/Shamet to Dallas

Not sure who deserves 18 in this deal...probably OKC gets it or we are giving up 18 to get 25 (or the Phoenix/OKC part is a 10 for 18 swap).  Two other thing of note here, this is cap neutral (very close) as it relates to 2021 room.  Second, OKC has TPE's to absorb Wright and DFS.  I wonder if there is a construct that gets some or all of the TPE to Dallas.

Beverly = Duffy
Shamet = Happy Walters (Excel)
