Damn, Sleeping brings it! Do one on Trump next! Then Michael Jackson’s doctor!

I just wanted to clarify and set the stage for what kind of player you're advocating for the Mavs to get. I didn't know how familiar you were of KPJ's full tenure in the league before he was exiled. 

And don't get me wrong, I usually do not care what an NBA player does off the court (within reason). If he wins games, then he wins games. But if said player is a clear detriment to the team and a locker room cancer, shouldn't we avoid that at all costs? KPJ is clearly talented. He is a prototypical combo guard in the league and has shown he can score, facilitate, and even defend when he wants to. The last part of the sentence being the key. 

There are levels to headcases in the league. Every team usually needs one with an edge. I just don't think a serious contender could ever win with KPJ in his correct role, most because he would never accept that role and cause a fuss.
