RE: 2021 FREE AGENCY: MIA favs to SnT for Lowry | Markkannen wants DAL? - Kammrath - 08-02-2021 From Stein: Quote:The Kings are said to be preparing an offer in the $50 million range to bring back in-demand center Richaun Holmes – with Holmes said to be seeking bigger numbers. Quote:Beyond the extension for Dončić, retaining Marjanović is the one certainty about the Mavericks’ offseason that has already seen them move away from a planned pursuit of Lowry.

He's that perfect 6'8" wing the Mavs need to guard the perimeter. RE: 2021 FREE AGENCY: MIA favs to SnT for Lowry | Markkannen wants DAL? - Mavs2021 - 08-02-2021 That´s why Hollinger got fired from his GM jobs. DeRozan signing the MLE with Miami. If that happens and Lowry S&Ts for 100/3, I want the Cayman Islands bank accounts of Dyle Dowry and Kemar LeRozan closely monitored for any suspicious transfers from Rat Piley.

I know I'm going to get flamed for this (and I don't hate Markkanen - kind of like him, actually), but: I was kind of hoping Donnie leaving would result in more Americans on the team. Not because I think they're better (the opposite might be true) but because I really believe that Cuban will ALWAYS be on this free agency tip, and it's clearly a fraternity. This is one of the reasons I liked the Lowry idea.

Mavs, Spurs and Nuggets are probably the hotspots for international players in the league. Embrace it and focus on them in free agency. Marrkanen seems to be the only player that wants to join the Mavs at all cost and even though he isn´t great he is still a talent upgrade. I absolutely hate it when they don´t take advantage of situations like this. Same for the local guys. Randle was willing to sign for less to come home but the Mavs had no interest. For a team that continues to fail in free agency the few advantages of the location are important. Focus on local guys and international players.

Thank you Miami. Since they aren't getting a clear #2 Superstar this FA, they need to pivot to trade asset acquisition, because, with Luka's extension, if they get a great player, it's coming through trade. Whether it's through KP increasing his trade value, and needing assets to put around him as a trade value or another package, that's the next place acquisition of a major player will happen....

I always felt a little bad for Wright/Richardson as one smallish perimeter defender isn't going to change your teams defensive fortunes.

Leonard is staying with the Clippers and Smart isn't that anymore. Otherwise, let Green get some minutes. I just don't see a path to get better on that side of the ball so lets shoot everyone out of the gym.

Marrkanen seems to be the only player that wants to join the Mavs at all cost and even though he isn´t great he is still a talent upgrade. Fair points, and a good perspective. In the modern league, there are maybe three PREMIUM players who are foreign born. One of them is here already. Another was clearly the target of the longterm free agency plans here but opted to re-sign with his team and just won a championship. The other is free when, 2023? My point is, if the Mavs lean further into the Euro connection, I don't think that jives with the free agency splash plan. I agree that getting the best Euros here isn't a bad strategy, I just have this feeling Cuban won't be satisfied until he lands his legendary big fish. RE: 2021 FREE AGENCY: MIA favs to SnT for Lowry | Markkannen wants DAL? - dirkfansince1998 - 08-02-2021 One of the interesting side stories so far. Complete silence on all things KP. Based on the latest statement they want to give him one more season to improve but I also wouldn´t be suprised if the first announcement of the day will be a KP trade.

All the Europeans that are now 20-23 years old. Guess what they watched in the middle of the night ten years ago? DIRK! One of them, taking down the mighty Heat with LeBron James. Mavs can´t let it go to waste. Porzingis was star-struck sitting next to Dirk in that Africa piece. You think Porzingis wanted to come to Dallas, because our franchise trajectory was so great or because we had done such a bang-on job over the last 10 years. The only reason he was cool with coming to Dallas was Dirk.

It wouldn't surprise me if KP gets moved. We know there was some smoke around the TDL and of course the MBT will say all the right things about KP. I just have a hard time coming up with a team that would be interested who would also be a good trade partner. (08-02-2021, 12:33 PM)Mavs2021 Wrote: Mavs can´t let it go to waste.
