Fox's contract is way too high and too long for what he provides! He is owed $61,752,000 in 2029-30... can we call it a boat anchor of a contract?
Besides, Fox will hurt the tank (as will Kyrie). The Mavs need to tank all the way and patiently for at least 2-3 seasons (not half-way and wanting immediate gratification), if the goal is to properly build around Cooper. Cooper is still only 18, there is time enough to do it right and surround him with a high quality core that is close to his age, just like the Thunder did with SGA.
Fox is almost useless (i like him but age and contract are not on his side honestly), i agree with you.
Take our time. We can't fix this roster with 1 or 2 moves.
Next year top pick is a MUST... After then we will not have picks so it would be good trade for 25yo players who fit well with Flagg and the new rookie.
Trade street clothes is not a quick needed, he plays 30 games at best this season, he can't ruin our tank.
Kyrie too. He will not play until the ASG.
No problem.
