I like Harris as a placeholder/insurance policy for Green as we wait for him to take a bigger role. He's also a large expiring deal at the TDL.
I think you have to take into account Mavs salary will increase by roughly 50 mil in 2022 from whatever we will have in 2021. Luka will go from 10 to 35, Brunson from 2 to 10 and DFS from 4 to 10 and lets assume WCJ from 7 to 17. Therefore I think Harris 20 mil will be a welcome tax reduction.

Kleber as way cheaper alternative to Collins and future draft pick (from Orlando). The alternative for Atlanta is to pay Collins 25 mil per year, while they use him as 4th or 5th guy.
