I think Dallas want 2nd round picks instead of 1st round picks with guaranteed salary.
Edit: Or future 1sts.

As long as it guarantees we get Bazz and DS17, lol or move up to get TB3
In that case, I'd take their entire freaking roster minus Dirk for the #13 pick. Cuban can swing for the fences and we'd compete for a year, then have a shot at 2014 FA. All their contracts expire, or are cheap rookie deals.
A 2015 or 2016 protected 1st + marion sounds better, but i'd probably do the deal you posted.
I could be talked into taking on JAE ****ING CROWDER.
If they're not going after Dwight and CP3, and if what you're saying is true, then they have no incentive to get rid of anything. Additionally, VC can be bought out for something like a million dollars so if they want to get rid of him, they don't really need to burn any assets to get it done.
Where you getting that, NUMBS? Shamsports has him with a player option, which would be bizarre if they have a buyout on top of that. Why give him the option at all?
Marion's salary expires and isn't that much in the grand scheme of things. He expires and also fills a need. He was still pretty productive and efficient last season, a clear upgrade to Marvin Williams IMO.
He'd probably opt out if his rights were traded here and chase a championship for the minimum, so the swap would basically be free. Only problem is the deal has to be made on draft night and both teams drafting for the other, but not consummated for 10 days or so.

... Did you mistake Mayo for Carter?
But hang on, I thought Dallas wanted the cap space - why would they want the #21 pick?
I'd do the trade though - if it means we can secure Schroeder. Having Marion for 1 year is a small price to pay - it just means we won't have to bring in a vet back-up big. Marion and Marvin can play 3rd big by committee (we're "tanking" anyway right?). That's a perfect scenario.
Bazz wuold probably be gone. So I'd draft Steven Adams at #13 and Schroeder at #14. Adams is a smart/heady/tough shot blocking big man, who can be our 4th big behind Favors/Kanter/Marion. He can be our 3rd big next year. Schroeder .... well enough said.

LOL.. it's no secret he wasn't very good at PITT. He was still adjusting to the College level of play in the US. He said as much in his interview. But he is a legit 7 footer. He has proven to be an instinctive shot blocker. He runs the floors and finish dunks. Plus, he has proven at the Combine that his shooting has improved massively, he was one of the best shooters there (mid range).
Big men develops slowly (see Ibaka/Marc Gasol), but looking at the "tools" he has right now, together with his heady-ness, fight, and willingness to improve, I'm projecting him to be a solid future pro - a legit 7 foot, shot blocker who shoots the 12 footer consistently. Sounds like a perfect 3rd big to me.

he is/has none of these. he's a straight-up knucklehead partier. the tools he has are almost simply what he was born-with, his game has hardly developed in the last 4 years.
Alright.. another route would be to get a legit starting SG to pair with Hayward.
Pick Schroeder at #13 and someone like Kentavious Caldwell-Pope at #14. KCP can knock down the 3pt consistently which is PERFECT for our offense/personnel. He's very athletic and is a decent defender.
Last 4 years? What are you talking about? He's only been playing 1 year at PITT? Have you been following him since he was in New Zealand? Since he was 15? Do you know something we don't? Are you like his cousin or something?
