So, this is PROBABLY either leaked by Dallas to make someone else they're negotiating with (either a team in trade talks or maybe even DJJ's agent, for contract negotiation purposes) remember they have options, or by Thompson for similar purposes, but to his benefit.
I can't really be mad at any of this. The front office is on a roll.
I have a feeling that Orlando is the destination for Klay and that mentioning the Mavs is to make sure the offer is good from the Magic.
I also have a feeling that Grant is the piece that Dallas really wants. Too much smoke there from what has been passed around. I think Grant would be ideal to put this team over the top.
Nico is on a tear right now. I'll trust any move that guy makes at this point. He has definitely proven he knows what he is doing.
Find me at Lakersball.com. I'm done with the Nico and the Mavs.
