THJ Foot Fracture: What to do?

[hakeemfaan]

I don't think THJ got his contract because of emotional attachment. The dude was an integral player and the only consistent (well compared to the others) scorer in the playoffs. He regressed a lot. There are a lot of reasons. But the THJ of the last 2 years absolutely deserved that money AND would be a key offensive player on this team if he could score.

I agree that the Mavs need to move off his money though. I don't see him returning to the same player under Kidd. But I don't think Cuban is just handing 70+mil away because he likes a guy personally.

The point is Tyus probably deserves a very good contract too.  You have to balance though with other extensions or contracts on the horizon.  I like THJ. He plays hard, seem like a genuinely good team guy, and this team needs scoring.  So as a fan who thinks more with his emotions, I am fully on board with his deal. The GM can’t think the same way. He has to balance DFS and JB contracts also coming up.
