Trade & FA 2025-26: Free Agency Starts 5pm CST/6pm EST

I have read a lot on here that size is coming back and that is where the NBA is heading.  But it still looks to me like space is what wins in the playoffs, not size.  Its not just the Warriors, we just watched two teams in the finals play with more space than size.  Same with the prior champion.  Size is great, but I don't think trading space for size is a winning formula.  I guess we will see.

Yes. Space is what matters. Now, if you have bigs that also create space, you’re golden. Unfortunately, the Mavs bigs are reundant in that they all operate midrange in. That’s a valuable player, but you only want one playing at a time. Maybe AD will finally develop that 3 point shot or the Mavs will make a trade for a stretch big. Otherwise, combined with one of the worst backcourts in the NBA for at least 60% of the season, there’s nothing Flagg can do to save them. I’d prefer a reboot.
