A little ridiculous, because it would require us to probably trade Dirk who can veto trades. Then again, we dump Dirk, Bogut and youth for Dragic and Whiteside. Dirk retires and returns as a coach. We may not be great, but it's the most Cuban thing ever.
Okay now I'm just bored and in need of some Mavs news

Some team will still give up something for a slow big man center. Rather the question is, what do you consider as positive assets? For me, 2nd round pick with no long term salary is positive. I would prefer two 2nd round picks, as I do not see him getting much more and by returning salary it is okay to have someone locked for next season also. There is no big name Mavs are going after this summer, other than draft, so you can take back salary.
When it comes to Whiteside. Well, in that case you still would have to give up unprotected 1st rounder. Riley would not even pick up the phone for anything else. Of course, with Whiteside, this 1st rounder would probably end up somewhere in the range of 10-15. Therefore you would give up two top10 protected 1st round picks and some talent.
