Lavine is a really entertaining player and I'd love to have him. But I personally filter out any trade proposal including 1st round picks that ignores what we still owe from the KP deal (1st rounders in 21 and 23) and how the Stepien rule plus protections on that 23 pick prevents us from trading first rounders for the foreseeable future. Dallas would need to acquire 1st rounders in order to send any out.
But thinking positively, I look forward to seeing how Lavine plays in his last career game against the Mavs.
Hardaway out, due to groin issue.
YIKES

Season is young, nothing will be lost even if they lose a couple. I just see that as an opportunity for other guys to step up. Experience from that might even outweight the potential loss.

Ha ha, that might be a good thing, light a fire under the guys who do play in this game!
If the Mavs give that much for Lavine I will join the angry mob that would gather at Mavs HQ and demand changes immediately...
That's what you give up for AD or similar type players...not the second coming of Finley putting up stats on a horrible team...
Come on ROOKS this is your chance!!!
Boban got to go up stronger with the ball!
Is Luka not catching KP on purpose? This is odd...
Porzingis bricking everything and not interested in doing much but just running around and spotting up for threes
These free throws are just what Burke needs to dial in his range!
That is one ugly quarter of basketball by the Mavericks there!
Bulls frontcourt is just too athletic for the Mavs today. LaVine has it on cruise control so far...once he decides to take over then this could get ugly
Apart from wide-open threes, every shot the Mavs take is about as high on the degree of difficulty as you can get.
I know we lack many players but come on we have played such a horrible quarter.
Just sit Luka...this team is too short-handed to do anything today. A jump-shooting team without most of its jumpshooters is useless out there. You see how Chicago is getting easy buckets in the paint, the Mavs just aren't capable of doing that. Chicago is not respecting any of the shooters so the lane is clogged
We can't pass, score or defend. Otherwise, we are doing really well.
The Bulls are not making any threes either and we are still down that much.
