I have wanted Adams for some time but I think the Mavs are committed to KP not having to pick up fouls on a lot of skilled bigs (Davis, Love, Townsend, etc). You get Iguodola in here or Aminu and I think the Mavs defense gets a lot better. Powell right now is drawing these assignments and is having a lot of trouble. You bring in Iggy and he will lock guys down for 15-20on a night You still have options when you play Embiid or someone like that (how many others are really like that though?). I think even a smaller move like this would solidify this team even while we wait or hope for a bigger blockbuster trade.
I think it depends on the cost for Iggy... I wouldn't even trade the GS 2nd for him. I would trade our/UTA 2nd (with Lee). Having another versatile defender to throw at good wings is never a bad thing. He doesn't play a lot of minutes, doesn't shoot the 3 well, and certainly isn't checking the Davis/Love/Towns crowd though... he is smaller than DFS. I mean, if he gets switched, he is going to battle, but you aren't bringing him in to usurp Powell guarding those guys!
Overall, I think there are better uses for assets, if players are made available. I would hate to add another guard and see our need for a bigger player go unfilled. You know, someone that we could put on that group of guys. I agree it is a need.
