Trade & FA 2024-25:

I have generally thought of Grimes as a Green upgrade, but he could fill the DJJ role if necessary.  Not as athletic and probably not as good defensively, but a much better floor spacer.  

If we had strong reason to believe that Grant was ready to be third option and go all out on defense in order to compete, then he might be my top target as well, although its not idea that he is on the wrong side of 30.

Call me naive, but with guys like Grant, the connective quality of NBA icon Kyrie Irving has me thinking totally differently than I might've a year ago. I think he was able to do for this team what Brunson was doing during the transition from Carlisle to Kidd, only on higher plane of adoration from the old(er) guard. I just have this feeling that Dallas is being looked at totally differently than they used to be, and that guys will probably understand that coming here means playing hard. 

Wishful thinking, a little, but not out of complete nowhere.
