We got Flagg playing PG in summer league so I am waiting on that. If I am the mavs I wait to see money dwindle and see if Cooper makes it looks easy enough to play PG some. If so you got him and BWILL and help from Hardy Klay Max Naji until Nembhard learns the offense then you got Flagg Bwill and Nembhard till Irving is back and that could work.
Now you got a roster spot to use with guys losing out on options and others getting cut that we might want and early season injuries making our trade bait looking like it is worth a lot more than it is and all that works to create more options.
Patience is a good thing because good things come to those who wait.
Now if D Lo comes in and signs first thing monday morning for the remaining money we have to take that offer and I am ok with doing that but now you have to work harder on selling teams on guys like O max and Hardy. Powell is an expiring so lots of tax teams will want him. Martin has to all of a sudden become a 3 point assasin for us to move him so the brain trust has its job cut out for itself.
We may have to call Boston and ask them if they want Powells expiring because we are about to just eat his contract and cut him so we can add a free agent so its now or never for you to shave that $4 million off your salary cap or not. That way you force them to accept a deal. Now you can add Exum or Kai. If Omax can develop into a decent asset then you can make teams take Martin to get him in the trade. If Hardy works out early this season you can keep him and let him develop and work on creating some more consistency.
Personally with Cooper and PJ I would keep OMax and Hardy both just to see if we could up that value and then trade them at the TDL. If Boston or some other team with a bloated salary does not want DP's expiring I just cut him to add Kai Jones.
Martin is here to showcase so we can trade him so we are trapped with him now and have to play him plenty of minutes to get his game and contract worth its 9.5 Million. He needs to show us he is worth that money so we can trade him. Otherwise he needs to ride the bench the 2nd half of the season and try again next season to see if he can develop him into a PG.
