Part of the reason Orlando probably said no to 2 first rounders is Ariza has zero value as a player.  He is just a contract at this point.  

Any Mavs deal for AG would likely involve THJ and/or Johnson who do have on the court value that likely reduces draft compensation needed in a trade.

Moreover, there are going to be teams, in a suddenly stronger east, that end up missing the playoffs after overvaluing their players and teams. 

Once reality sets in closer the trade deadline the asking price for several players will decrease.
