Cant imagine who they are trying to target, but they must feel they can do better than any of those 3 in a trade.
I am wondering if there are teams out there who can offer more than the Mavs. For example, the MLE, or some part of the MLE. Mavs can only offer the vet minimum. These hypothetical teams are still engaged in trade negotiations and Schroder/Bledsoe are willing to wait until the full picture emerges. Bottom line is that it might not be the MBT sitting on their hands.
