Long term commitment.

He probably MEANS extend and trade, but the long term commitment part is key. It means those teams are negotiating with Hayward on his NEXT contract. That's the holdup.

Dollars to donuts the Mavs are one of those teams, but that doesn't mean they're the ones who'll offer the deal he accepts.

So what you're saying is, the Mavs could be putting all of their eggs into the Hayward basket, not giving their attention to other stuff because they think this is happening, and be left with nothing. Especially if they drafted for Boston. In other words, this year's Kemba/Olynyk debacle.
