Post: RE: 2025 draft thread: THE MAVS WIN THE 1ST PICK

davis despite injury issues is still one of the most influential bigs in the league and you probably won't get someone that caliber without paying more assets. would you swap davis for someone like Si...

just tell Flagg to sign with Nike and become nico's guy then there'd be less concern of him being traded while Nico is in office. a competent GM can find a good balance between winning now and the fut...

agree, some of the assets we have now are better traded rather than kept, and a quality ball handler would help us more than any of these tradable assets would.

we could even turn that Philly pick into two mid-table second rounders to get Proctor and also that duke's wing as well.

Harper would have been the no.1 pick in 7-8 drafts of the past 10 years imho, he's second only to Flagg in this class which says a lot. doubt spurs would have such strong interest in davis though.

duke's PG Proctor seems a decent choice and would have good chemistry with Flagg. Proctor is ranked in the mid 2nd round in mock draft so he probably wouldn't cost much imho. not sure if he's ready fo...

pj is a natural pf who can play small ball 5 imho. playing SF is awkward enough for pj, not to say you'd have to let a rookie forward handle the ball. Flagg is talented and he has the potential to be ...

either pj or gafford or even both will get traded this summer. lively is more valuable but Flagg doesn't want him traded apparently.

this year's draft is so deep I wouldn't mind trading some of our solid role players and future picks for another two picks that may possibly bring Flagg's college teammates in town as well.
