But we'd have to match his 50 million salary minus whatever Flagg makes, i'm assuming. i thats around 13 million for year 1. So we're still needing 40 million.
So basically the trade would be Flagg, P.J, Gafford, Caleb Martin for Giannis.
You'd have a starting lineup (when Kyrie is healthy)
Kyrie
Klay
Giannis
Anthony Davis
Lively
Bench
Naji
Max
Hardy
Powell
Bwill
Omax
Starting lineup is crazy good. Old but good. Bench might be the worst in the league. So i dont know. Maybe we could hold out P.J. and give them Klay. Not sure how we could work that.
For the record, that team would be so much worse on the court than on paper with 3 starters who can’t shoot a 3. Giannis is just a better version of AD. Lively is a worse version of AD. It would never work. But the Mavs have so many options now, this thread is actually relevant again. Let’s build a proper team. Three two way players who can shoot. Flagg. AD/Lively. Kyrie, maybe. Cheers.
