Just cause we had 30 mil and didn't get what we wanted doesn't mean that we didn't try to get better players than we ended up with. Saying things like "its a black on on Donnie" as if he had a magic wand and could break the rules and make what ever he wanted happen and just decided not to, "is silly."
Aside from that I agree with you guys that we should have or needed some of the better options out there. Kemba would have been great, Brogdon is pulling a mini Harden once he left OKC so far in this short season, Green and Pat Bev would have been nice. Even Morris and some Nasty would have been a great pick up in hind site seeing how well hes playing so far this year.
Thing is we have what we have at least until the trade deadline so we could spend more time finding ways to enjoy them or crushing it in the trade ideas thread to spark some more hope for a better all around team apposed to complaining in here about things we cannot change.
Point is that the Mavs have a history of screwing up free agency. They can trade, they can draft, they are getting exposed in free agency.

And to add to that, I disagree on strategy IF plans A-C failed. They could have taken on salary dumps like other teams did and had more ammo for down the road. Now, they HAVE to trade in order to get their starters - they are locked into these players on long term deals. Now, it is early, and things may still work out... but I disagree with the strategy of spending capspace - especially THAT much at once - all on role players/backups. We will see if they can trade their way into some starters.

Brogdan would’ve been a game changer. Can you imagine having Brogdan playing point for the Mavs every night instead of the rotation we have every night that swaps Wright and Curry
