I'm a Mavs fan, so feel free to include their players/picks in a deal. Luka and KP are off limits though, of course. lol.

For me Bamba being traded would be something of a package to increase the SG line. Say Fournier, future first, and Bamba for DeMar DeRozan.
As stated above, the Cavs do not have a package that could lead to a DeRozan-type asset.

Brunson yet another backup pg ...and 1st (propably mid to late) is a fair value?
Ok
At least you noticed thats not gonna fly.

Do you honestly believe that Mavs will make the playoffs in the Western Conference this season? If not, it's a lottery pick with a chance to be top 4. This is much higher value than late 1st.
I somewhat agree with your opinion on Brunson, I also think his trajectory is a back-up PG in this league. However, a prospect is a prospect and he qualifies as an asset on rookie scale contract. He also fills the position of need for this team.
IMO, an asset and a pick is about the right value for Bamba. I think someone else mentioned this as well. I looked through the Mavs roster and Brunson is the only player close to being an asset outside of Luka/Porzingis.
