I could actually see him using a similar line of thought to rationalize a mini tear down of this team. Oh that WCF team was just lightning in a bottle like the championship team.

Personally, I find the idea that the Mavs would willingly put a non-shooting, ball dominant guard next to Luka ridiculous, so I highly doubt this option is in play. So no Simmons then, right?

Simmons has years remaining on that contract RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL "gearing up for big trade for wing"? | "unlikely" DP is kept? - KillerLeft - 07-03-2022 (07-03-2022, 04:19 PM)mvossman Wrote: He is a ball dominate non shooting wing.

And, I flatly disagree about his value as a screener. It would give them a way to play at a faster pace, particularly in transition, which is not Luka’s strongest area (This one is true of Westbrook, too, I admit). I’m not saying there isn’t a risk, or that it’s a slam dunk of a fit, but in his case, for ME, the potential good is worth the risk.

Not sure that is much better. He does not rim run or protect the rim. Don't see the fit. Trying to see evidence that Simmons couldn't be a rim runner. He hasn't been asked to do it, and with Embiid, the knock was always that they operated in the same spaces. With his crazy athleticism and BBIQ, I think a Luka/Simmons PnR would be pretty devastating with either player able to score/pass out of the myriad of options that play presents. The problem is that both guys are being guarded by similar defender types in most likelyhood, so that takes a little of the advantage away. But it isn't like it is the only option. Simmons around the rim brings good things though - whether him scoring, or him making good decisions passing. Taking out the mental issues, I could see good things basketball-wise with either KI or BS. Hard to see us having the juice to acquire either though. RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL "gearing up for big trade for wing"? | "unlikely" DP is kept? - cow - 07-03-2022 On a serious note, I have next to no hope that we'll land a star. Given how our front office has traditionally operated and our bare cupboard, you aren't getting a star that doesn't come with a wart or twenty. It always funny how we come up with these pie-in-the-sky trade ideas and when certain players are seemingly available, we nitpick them to death. The perfect player isn't going to walk through our door and we are far away from having the assets available to be overly picky. Look at how expensive Gobert was and he certainly has warts. RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL "gearing up for big trade for wing"? | "unlikely" DP is kept? - Branduil - 07-03-2022 Simmons is as good at rim-running as I am RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL "gearing up for big trade for wing"? | "unlikely" DP is kept? - Mavsfan12 - 07-03-2022 (07-03-2022, 03:45 AM)SleepingHero Wrote: I love how you said lets go back to sensibility and immediately opened up "Now onto Jonathan Isaac" You can disagree with acquiring Isaac on medical fitness. That is why he would be available. That other stuff is junk that I am not buying and it is kind of despicable that it would be an issue. Dude writes books in his spare time. Non issue. By all accounts, he is a high character man and excellent basketball player. As for his injury, his contract takes that into consideration. My post discussed all of that, and how I would be willing to trade THJ/Powell for Harris, (who's defensive profile while still being able to spread the floor makes him a better fit, imo), and the possibility of Isaac returning to form (or dust as his contract becomes unguaranteed). His play was worth the risk, imo. It also is reasonable that a trade like that could happen - unlike discussion of Durant. That said, we are operating in a post-Dragic decision environment and we need a distributor. So do most other teams. Makes it tough to dwell on potential when that reality is staring you in the face.

Cited reason because Mavs came back on their offer to try and fit Hardy in along with him. McGee is not taking MIL minimum instead of Mavs MLE. He also wants to play in the Kidd/Dudley orbit.

Quote:Quote:Mavs2021 ....somebody was right again about the Mavs. You may choose now between the predictions that the Mavs will do a) Kyrie by overpaying two 1st round picks to outbid the Lakers b) offer either the Bulls or Cavs a first round pick for Sexton/White c) THJ for Kemba/Diallo RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL "gearing up for big trade for wing"? | "unlikely" DP is kept? - Winter - 07-03-2022 (07-03-2022, 06:10 PM)Mavs2021 Wrote: a) Kyrie by overpaying two 1st round picks to outbid the Lakers At this point, Front Office reputations are on the line. All of the above options would suggest a failure somewhere else. For that reason, I tend to think there are still players we have yet to hear about or thought about. It's of course entirely possible to have this kind of epic failure. I wouldn't put it past the Mavericks. But I hope for Nico's sake that something more positive is on the horizon. RE: ROSTER TALK: DAL "gearing up for big trade for wing"? | "unlikely" DP is kept? - StrandedOnBeauboisHill - 07-03-2022 I’ve always seen Ntilikina as more of a peninsula. My prediction is that Cuban is waiting for the super team that no one is paying attention to to collapse and once Micic gets traded to Milwaukee and breaks his contract with Anadolu Efes, Beaubois will naturally force his way out and our prodigal son will become our third playmaker.

Detroit bought Kemba out. Cubes can get him if he wants to. Diallo's contract was picked up, he's not going anywhere unless they decide to trade him. |
