Trade Analysis
Dallas surrendered substantially more long-term value than it received. Lamar Odom's Dallas season was a major failure, while the Lakers received a first-round asset and a large trade exception. Dallas realized almost no useful return. The central comparison is Lamar Odom against first-round pick (protected top 20 in 2012-17, unprotected in 2018) (2014 #21-Mitch McGary), with the remaining picks, rights, cash and contract consequences shaping the final margin.
