There must be a how-to team building video or podcast out there (wouldn't be a book these days) because I keep seeing folks say this thing, "these small moves are finishing moves, not moves that a non-contending team like the Mavs should make." I reject that logic completely. Give me improvement. And then the contributors to our good team, if on fair contracts, can be traded if a star player wants to make his way to the Mavs. If not, you do your best in the meantime to win as much as you can.
I think most people here would agree with this, especially if the "powder" or cap space approach is now in the rear view mirror.
There's so much hyperbole around here (we're all guilty of it) that it gets to a point where any/every statement gets interpreted as hyperbole, even those that aren't intended that way.
